Rizzle Kicks – When I Was A Youngster lyrics
[Verse:]
I can remember that when I was a little youth I,
Wanted to fly around the world making a new life,
I never thought today,
I'd be where I am now,

Yo, wanted to be a fireman,
Than I lost the desire man,
The second I got old enough,
To buy myself a cider can,
Yeah, I was a smart little kid,
That sides departed me since,
These days you can find me,
Sitting on the bench in the park with a lager and crisps

[Chorus:]
Back when I was younger,
I wanted to be everything on the planet,
Now that I am older,
It seems the ambition has vanished,
Yeah when I was a youngster,
When I was a, When I was a youngster,
Youngster, when I was a youngster
And now that I'm older,
I wish I coulda been everything that I wanted,
I'm on it

[Verse 2:]
I think that if I think back back to the days
When I thought I didn't think that,
Nothing that I thought could not be possible,
Ha, try and figure that out,
Back when I didn't know how,
To settle for a desk job bring in those pounds,
I wanted to live in those clouds,
These days I deliver those sounds

I always thought of myself as a simple dreamer,
Never tried to hard but believed it,
Now all of a sudden,
It's gone my way

[Chorus:]
Back when I was younger,
I wanted to be everything on the planet,
Now that I am older,
It seems the ambition has vanished,
Yeah when I was a youngster,
When I was a, When I was a youngster,
Youngster, when I was a youngster
And now that I'm older,
I wish I coulda been everything that I wanted,
I'm on it
