The Grownup Noise – Attention lyrics

Oh it's a shame to admit but we all just wish to die young
Well attention's all that I want someone who will laugh and cheer me on this time you know I'm kicking your chair and tugging on to your arm listen look at me now
One second it feels like a whole hour

On a swing set with your feet up on your own you show just how high you can go
In school yard it's so hard to hear them call your name
Like you were under a spell this feeling you miss oh well
But you progress with focus and learn to think before you say or you're grounded away
And your fathers on his way to say society don't wait a moment

It's really a shame cause we all just wish to be young, well it sure felt good to play
Dumb like pleading the fifth four three to one you know I'm skipping the charm and pulling the firm alarm well detention's all that I want somewhere I can sit and think what I done this time

But like Ally Sheedy said in the breakfast club when you grow old your heart just dies

So you grow up and you throw up and learn to drink your cares away to all the rent you must pay on a sofa with your feet up on your own you show that you can work a remote
This feeling we just don't know and oh it's a shame

Really a shame cause we all just wish to die young well attention's all that I want
Someone who'll laugh and cheer me on this time you know I'm kicking your chair and tugging onto your arm listen look at me now one second it feels like a whole hour now the moment's gone with the wind and you're chasing after the sound the sound of screwing around and who cares if the cops are running us down
