Hey there kid, you summer child
Let me guess - you’re feeling stressed,
Your mind just running wild?
Well try the wine
Ain't that nice?
You look like you need some sage advice

so life ain't as fun and fancy free
as you thought it was gonna be at twenty-three?
Well, kid, I hate to break the news
There’s only one thing you can do -

Oooh just give it time -
You don’t really start the party till you’re further down the line
And you’ll find as life unfolds
The key to feeling young is getting old!

I climbed the mountain, for years and years
Now that I’m skiing down the other side, it’s oh so clear
that youth and beauty don’t mean a thing
Winter’s here but I feel green as spring

I wouldn’t go back if I could, no!
cause the final act is when shit starts getting good
For now you’re out of luck, it’s true -
Just suck it up and power through

Oooh just give it time
My reflection in the mirror’s showing clearly now that I’m
In my prime! Lo and behold:
The key to feeling young is just getting old

When you’re young and spry, the stakes are high, it's all pressure and potential
You’re paralyzed scared you might waste your chance
but when you're down the track and looking back, it's all inconsequential
The only thing that’s left to do is dance!

Dance!
Dance!

Listen, kid
At least now you know
Your ennui just means that
Hey, you've got a ways to go

But once you make it
As many do
You’ll be grey and old
But your soul will feel brand new
I swear it’s true

Oooh just give it time -
You don’t really start the party till you’re further down the line
And you’ll find as life unfolds
The key to feeling young
Is getting over all the silly things that never really mattered
‘Cause you’ll find after you’ve climbed a little higher on the ladder
There’s a rager on the final rung -
And that’s the key to feeling young!
The key to feeling young!
