I Would Never Wanna Be Young Again

By Gogol Bordello (2005)
On album Gypsy Punks: Underdog World Strike (2005)

Gypsy Punks: Underdog World Strike
By the desperate 'n' confused
Emotion of the youth
I was brought to crisis land
Where after getting checked for fleas
And barricades of embassies
I was sculpted to be overworked and silent

But since the early age
I broke out of the cage
And learned how to make marching drums from fish can
And I knew I'll run away
And so without further delay
I said "Two tears in a bucket, motherfuck it!"
And it seems like I ran and ran
Through the garbage and quicksand
And after getting checked for fleas
And barricades of embassies
I would never, never, never, wanna be young again

So?
But sudden wind it stole my hat
And I went on chasing it
Before I was just another burned out carnie
Every freak on every day
Lives a life one certain way
And that way is ain't no nothin' but a birthright

But since the early age
I broke out of the cage
And learned how to make marching drums from fish can
And I knew I'll run away
And so without further delay
I said "Two tears in a bucket, motherfuck it!"

And it seems like I ran and ran
Through the garbage and quicksand
And after getting checked for fleas
And barricades of embassies
I would never, never, never wanna be young again

What?
And it seems like I ran and ran
Through the garbage and quicksand
And after getting checked for fleas
And barricades of embassies
I would never, never, never wanna be young again
