I can remember when I was a little youth,
I wanted to fly around the world making a new life,
I never thought today I'd be where I am now.
Yo!
Wanted to be a fireman, then I lost the desire man
The second I got old enough to buy myself a cider can,
(Yeah!) I was a smart little kid, that sides departed me since,
These days you can catch me sitting on the bench in the park with a lager and crisps...
Back when I was younger I wanted to be everything on the planet!
Now that I am older, it seems the ambition has vanished.
Uh Yeah, when I was a youngester, when I was a,
When I was a youngster, youngster,
When I was a youngster.
Yeah, and now that I'm older, I wish I could of been everything that I wanted. (I'm on it)
I think that if I think back back to the days when I thought I didn't do that
Nothing that I thought would not be possible,
Try and figure that out (out),
Back when I didn't know how,
To settle for a desk job bring in those pounds,
I wanted to live in those clouds,
These days I deliver those sounds.
I always thought of myself as a simple dreamer,
I never tried too hard but believed it,
Now all of a sudden it's gone my way.
Back when I was younger I wanted to be everything on the planet!
Now that I am older, it seems the ambition has vanished.
Uh Yeah, when I was a youngester, when I was a,
When I was a youngster, youngster,
When I was a youngster.
Yeah, and now that I'm older, I wish I could of been everything that I wanted. (I'm on it)
When I was a youngster, when I was a,
When I was a youngster, youngster,
When I was a youngster.
Back when I was younger I wanted to be everything on the planet!
Now that I am older, it seems the ambition has vanished.
Uh Yeah, when I was a youngster, when I was a,
When I was a youngster, youngster,
When I was a youngster.
Yeah, and now that I'm older, I wish I could of been everything that I wanted.
(I'm on it)
