about

Best friendship before ya have hair down there.

lyrics

BACKYARD KIDS

will ya play w me
im waitin’ for ya
under yr window
come on out
im in the backyard
i got something cool
for you
n me
a cigarette
binoculars
a comic book
a playboy
w marilyn showin’ everything
im old now
but i feel like a kid
makin’ stuff up
just like we used to
oh i remember
the tree house
n the pinecone ammunition
in the willow tree
yr my friend
yr my best friend
yr dad will letcha out
tonight
i’ve got
a flare gun
we’ll
shoot it
at the stars
ya make me laugh
maybe ill tear up a little bit
don’t look
my secret
maybe we’ll run away
you n me
i got 50 cents
in my shoe
n a bicycle
there’s room for you
oh there’s nothin’ like
the times we had
we knew the streets
we knew the woods
we broke into houses
we stole shit
n we wrote our names
in cement
