We said we wouldn't get jobs and we'd burn our bras

We wouldn't turn out nothing like our moms

I didn't, but I wish I did.

We all got drunk, and we all got laid

Drove the ford to the levy, said fuck the chevrolet

My friends grew up, and my friends had kids.

Now, I'm watching all the people walking down the streets

And the losers kicking rocks look just like me

I wish I was still sixteen

And I didn't know the world was so damn mean

I wish I was naive

I wish I was sixteen.

Déjà vu, been here before

I fucked you on this hotel floor

I'm here again, but I'm all alone.

I'm watching all the people walking down the street

And the losers kicking rocks look just like me

I wish I was still sixteen

And I didn't know the world was so damn mean

I wish I was naive

I wish I was sixteen.

I thought we'd grow old, and I'd take your name

Spend friday nights playing board games

And tucking our kids in bed at home.

Now, I'm watching all the people walking down the street

And the losers kicking rocks look just like me

I wish I was still sixteen

And I didn't know the world was so damn mean

I wish I was naive

I wish I was naive

I wish I was sixteen.

We said we wouldn't get jobs and we'd burn our bras

We wouldn't turn out nothing like our moms

I didn't, but I wish I did.
