we met at the arcade on our bikes we played a while and then went out on an adventure ‘till it was dark and on the walkie late that night you said I’m scared of what we might become I hope we won’t go cold and sad when we grow ‘cause every adult’s dull and grey they are all work and no play dead at 30, buried at 70 now every comic book’s a blast every song or movie is like the last I wonder why it all gets left behind when we grow I want to grow but not too fast yet I don’t want to live in the past just want to keep a part of I’m now so do we get to keep our smiles? or do we grow worried and sour? whatever happens to our hearts and minds when we grow?

I don’t know, I don’t know everything I thought I knew turned out to be a sham, a lure tell me where will the green man go? where will the green man go? time is so out of joint the world is fake and I’m alone tell me where will the green man go? where will the green man go? I gotta let go / I gotta let go I gotta run run run, go go go I gotta let go / I gotta let go I gotta run now, I’m ready to know I think it’s (all) just an elaborate dream to keep us in check and working I don’t know, I don’t know Where will the little green man be next? The bombs bombs fall on/onto our heads I don’t know, I don’t know what if the whole world’s the cave? and these shadows they aren’t real? tell me where will the green man go? where will the green man go? one happy world all around where no migration is allowed tell me where will we all go? where will we all go? I gotta let go / I gotta let go I gotta run run run, go go go I gotta let go / I gotta let go I gotta run now, I’m ready to know

big white rectangles in our hands 4,000 celebs in our heads and tattoos of brands oh how I miss my brain another day, another stigma in the database ‘cause these are the new gods, and we can’t get enough and we pray ‘cause these are the new gods, and we can’t get enough and we play designer bags and leather jackets the lives they cost, the weight, our collarbones should break another kerosene holiday oh how I love your tan lines from cancer sunrays ‘cause these are the new gods, and we can’t get enough and we pray ‘cause these are the new gods, and we can’t get enough and we play everyday
