Lookin' back now, well, it makes me laugh
We were growin our hair, we were cuttin' class
Knew it all already there was nothin' to learn
We were strikin' matches just to watch 'em burn.

Listened to our music just a little too loud 
We were hangin' in there with the outcast crowd.
Headin' to the rapids with some discount beer
It was a long train trestle, but we had no fear.

And man I don't know where the time goes
But it sure goes fast...just like that.

We were wannabe rebels who didn't have a clue
In our rock 'n roll tshirts and our typically bad attitudes
Had no excuses for the things that we done
We were brave, we were crazy
We were mostly young.

Talked a good game when we were out with the guys
But in the backseat we were awkward and shy
Girls were a mystery that we couldn't explain
And I guess there are some things that are never gonna change

And man I don't know where the time goes
But it sure goes fast...just like that.

We were wannabe rebels who didn't have a clue
In our rock 'n roll tshirts and our typically bad attitudes
Had no excuses for the things that we done
We were brave, we were crazy
We were mostly young.

Yeah and wishin' we were older.
Hey, I wish it wasn't over.

And I  wish it wasn't over.
