When he was just a little boy, |
|
He only had one favourite toy, |
|
And he had nothing on his mind, |
|
He never left anything behind, no, |
|
As he got older, things got worse, |
|
Like he had been born under a curse, |
|
Things started to fall apart, |
|
They went like they were at the start, |
|
No, ohh, |
|
It's like a civil war, growing up, |
|
It's like a civil war, |
|
Don't turn away, |
|
It's something you can't ignore, |
|
Growing up, |
|
It's like a civil war, |
|
And now that he was in his teens, |
|
He started to learn live of his means, |
|
Probably to stay in here and |
|
They didn't look like disappearin', |
|
No, ohh, |
|
It's like a civil war, growing up, |
|
It's like a civil war, |
|
Don't turn away, |
|
It's something you can't ignore, |
|
Growing up, |
|
Growing up, it's like a civil war, |
|
Don't turn away, |
|
It's something you can't ignore, |
|
Growing up, it's like a civil war, |
|
Don't turn away, |
|
It's something you can't ignore, |
|
Growing up, it's like a civil war. |
