(Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh) (Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh) I gotta lotta old friends that are gettin' back in touch And it's a pretty good feelin, yeah it feels pretty good I get a lotta double-takes when I'm comin' around the corners And it's mostly pretty nice, yeah it's mostly pretty alright 'Cause most kids give me credit for being down with it When it was back in the day, back when things were way different When the Youth of Today and the early 7 Seconds Taught me some of life's most valuable lessons There's gonna come a time when the scene'll seem less sunny It'll probably get druggy and the kids'll seem too skinny There's gonna come a time when she's gonna have to go With whoever's gonna get her the highest There's gonna come a time when the true scene leaders Forget where they differ and get big picture 'Cause the kids at the shows, they'll have kids of their own The sing-along songs will be our scriptures (Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh) We gotta stay positive (Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh) We gotta stay positive (Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh) We gotta stay positive (Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh) We gotta stay positive When the chaperone crowned us the king and the queen I knew that we'd arrived at a unified scene And all those little lambs from my dreams Well, they were there too 'Cause it's one thing to start it with a positive jam And it's another thing to see it all through And we couldn't have even done this if it wasn't for you (Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh) We gotta stay positive (Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh) We gotta stay positive (Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh) We gotta stay positive (Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh) We gotta stay positive
