When I was a little kid I used to look up at the sky Watching clouds floating by When I was a little child I used to watch the birds up high And then I'd wonder why Looking back I know it's gone Looking back I know it's gone It's such a different world to what it was It's such a different world to what it was When I was a little kid We used to be out all the time Playing games When I was a little kid We'd break windows run a mile That's how it was. Looking back I know it's gone Looking back I know it's gone It's such a different world to what it was It's such a different world to what it was Dad would give you a clip because of the lip Mum would just sigh and start to cry And send you outside till dinner time Dad would give you a clip because of the lip Mum would just sigh and start to cry And send you outside till dinner time It's such a different world to what it was It's such a different world to what it was It's such a different world to what it was It's such a different world to what it was
