[Verse 1] I used to be a little boy but then I got old But then I got old I used to play with all my toys but then they got broke But then they got broke I used to go out with the boys but now I just mope But now I just mope I used to have the sweetest voice but now I just croak But now I just croak [Verse 2] When we were kids we used to build forts Hide from our parents in our own resorts We were such small examples of how it can be Faking perfection, afraid of reality [Verse 3] I lost all my friends to dreaming I lost myself to the same I was eight years old (Eight years old) When you pushed me down the drain And to all my friends from high school I miss you each and all the same And now a drink for every one of you Is what propels me down the drain (1, 2, 3, 4)
