---------------------------------------------------->Lyrics<---

i’m just a happy kid,          stuck with the heart of a sad punk
drowning in my id,             always searching like it’s on junk
no matter who i hang out with, i can hear the clack clunk
of the chains that pull the cars up the roller coaster mountain top so high
when it comes down it shoots back up straight back to the sky
i gotta laugh and then i’m asleep and then i walk around and wanna cry

out at night to do the strand,  the little candles make the bottles glow
got ink all over my right hand, getting crushes with no chance to grow
it’s like i’ll never ever land, there’s always too much sun or too much snow

i get slow days and no days
i get rusty and it’s hard
but i get notions that oceans 
are coming to my call

you can learn to get along (4x)

i get slow days and no days
i get rusty and it’s hard
but i get notions that oceans 
are coming to my call

and i’m just a happy kid,      stuck with the heart of a old punk
drowning in my id,             always hungry like it’s on junk
no matter who i hang out with, i can hear the clack clunk
of the chains that pull the cars up the roller coaster mountain top so high
when it comes down it shoots back up straight back to the sky
i gotta laugh and then i’m asleep and then i walk around and wanna cry

i’m just a happy kid (3x)
