Lyrics

Why Would You Want To Be Young Again?

[Verse 1]

Out at the party, no one to meet

Wine and spirits in front of me

Mixing elixirs and alchemy

Trying to turn back maturity

[Chorus]

Why would you want to be young again?

Taxed by your fears, not your government

Why would you want to be young again?

Who has the time for the suffering?

[Verse 2]

On an elliptical pedaling

Extra life with nowhere to be

Counting distance and calories

Trying to bring back those youthful knees

[Chorus]

Why would you want to be young again?

Taxed by your fears, not your government

Why would you want to be young again?

Who has the time for the suffering?

Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Bridge]

Why would you want to be young again?

Free from your debts, not your trespasses

Why would you want to be young again?

Free from your debts, not your trespasses

[Chorus]

Why would you want to be young again?

Taxed by your fears, not your government

Why would you want to be young again?

Who has the time for the suffering?

Why would you want to be young again?

Taxed by your fears, not your government

Why would you want to be young again?

Who has the time for the suffering?

Yeah, yeah, yeah
