So take me back, back to the days
When the sun was out and so were we
We didn't have to think about things, like university
No not a care in the world we had
And not a prayer, to call our own
At trying to keep contact with all our peeps
What's the point in trying to get a degree
Stay young forever I say.
So take me back to the summer of 2010
And when it ended we waited for it to come back around again
Growing up when we were all friends
A group of mates and a party every weekend
Good memories and no responsibilities
Summer spent chilling out at
Sitting down on Maltby Skate Park
All day and night until it got dark
Tbh we never did much
We never really did apart from
Walking down to Tesco's to pass the time
Never knew that loitering was a crime
And I've been arrested five times
And twice, I've been fined.
What's the point in trying to get a degree
Stay young forever I say.
So take me back to the summer of 2010
And when it ended we waited for it to come back around again
What's the point in trying to get a degree
Stay young forever I say.
So take me back to the summer of 2010
And when it ended we waited for it to come back around again
