When I Was a Child

When I was a child,
I was young and free, (Shubidubi)
No pain or worries
I could see, (Rolypoly)
I just wanted to hoppin'
and boppin' all day
Then I could take a nap
in a nice and cozy bed
Memories of my younger days
With overalls and a kickball
It was time to play, so overjoyed
But I don't want to learn,
all I want is my happy days
But why can't I?
(Wake up, you're in a dream)
But I don't want to learn,
all I want is my happy days
But I don't care
'cause I'm a grown-up big kid
Memories of my younger days
Laughing and having fun,
happy and free
But the time has passed so fast
But I don't want to work,
all I want is my younger days
But why can't I?
('Cause you're not a boy scout)
But I don't want to work,
all I want is my younger days
But I don't care
'cause I'm a grown-up big kid
I don't care
'cause I'm a cheerful big kid
I'm a grown-up big kid
