Young and Stupid Lyrics

I was yelling in my sleep
I was crying feeling week
Do we have to feel this way?
It wasn't like this yesterday

Everything is fine
When you're young and stupid
Everything's divine
When you're young and stupid

There's an easy start to things
There's the thrill that beauty brings
Glued together at the hips
Stuck together at the lips

Nature has the lead
When you're young and stupid
Nurture will impede
When you're young and stupid

Dun-dun-dun, dun-dun-dun
Dun-dun-dun, dun-dun-dun

Ahh-ah-ah-ah-ah, ahh-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ooh-ah, ooh-ahh, ooh-ahh, ooh

Now we're old with creaking bones
Some with partners, some alone
Some with kids and some with dogs
Getting through the nightly slog

Flashes in the mind
You were young and stupid
Keeps us warm at night
All our young and stupid
Makes us feel delight
We were young and stupid
Makes you feel regret
When you're young and stupid

(You know, I kept reminding myself)
(That nothing matters, nothing matters)
(You know, sometimes you have a fight with someone)
(Or you get frustrated, or you know something's happening)
(And then you catch a little glimpse of the outside)
(And it's just a bird flying and)
(You see a funny shape in the clouds and you think)
(What am I doing? You know?)
(I'm so small, nothing- nothing matters so, whatever)
