Lyrics

Remember days when we'd just play
Wasted days away concocting worlds in our heads
There was no sense of doom, no impending dread
It was fathoming, imagining, squeezing every drop of
Creativity out like strangling the remains of toothpaste
We'd no time to waste
There were games to be played
We'd make lightsabers from windbreaker poles
Pretend the floor was lava for miles around
Nothing quite as profound as the sound
Of someone screaming "Ready or not"
Up shot our heartbeats as we raced across parks and estates
Imagining them to be more fantastical places
We were at the race
It was impossible to tame us
You'd nearly be famous if you were consistently
Last to be caught in a game of build-up
Those were the stakes of our lives
We just played and played
Played and played
It only got as big as the world and the lads around us
And the one summer Cillian shot up tall shook us a bit
Because our world got a little bit bigger
He got a little harder to catch
But we adapted
We moved from the playground to the PlayStation
Back and forth between them like pinballs
Bouncing between the best days of our lives
We'd scrape our shins every other
Day and Gran would say something like
"You'll be better before you're married"
But we were in no hurry to grow up
Someone showing up on the green with
A football was our sign to pick teams
And you'd want to be good on your feet
Or you'd have no choice but to go and go
There was soul in the simplicity of it
We just played and played
Played and played
We just played and played
Played and played
We were thrown out of the house after breakfast and
Told to come home when the streetlights turned on
So I feel bad for kids today because it's not like that anymore
You can't just play
You can't just waste the days away
