Figured it out before I'm a teen, humming along the washing machine

Making some faces I made a scene, no one around to see how green

Run away, run away scream

I saddle my thoughts for the big machine

That is why that's the way we watch the movies

In some silly way life begins to change

That's the way we watch the movies

In some silly way life begins to change for you

You're old enough

Life begins to change

Lift up my fork and celebrate ease

Liquid enough, liquid it seems

Walking on pillows I learn how to sleep

Somehow I feel what flies seem to breathe

Run away, run away dream

I like all the flights on the big machine

That is why that's the way we watch the movies

In some silly way life begins to change

That's the way we watch the movies

In some silly way life begins to change for you

You're old enough

Life begins to break

Come on out. I've got a secret

Time will let you in

And if you want you can have a secret

Time will let you through

Come on out

You've gotta see it

Time to let you in

And if you want you can ride with me

If the wind is right the wind is free

I knew it then

I knew it well

Like a pilot diving down wishing well,

I know it's better when the weather changes your hair

Fifteen paces a mile an hour, it's gotta feel good

Sucking a slurpee for ultimate power, it's gotta feel good

Fighting, you're back when you feel like a coward

It's gotta feel good

And everything's moving at the ultimate speed

Believe it

That's the way we watch the movies

In some silly way life begins to change

You're older now
