Gang of Youths - Kansas lyrics

[Verse 1] Some of us think seldom in the night Of goddamn horses, and goddamn wires It's in one ear And never sees the other side Unsteadiness belies your tender years With real world problems, and real world fears Be young Imbibe tonight Like you're a work of fiction Oooohhhoooo... [Verse 2] So simmer down, we'll brave the sh**ty light Like proto-people with cro-magnon hands And stones for knives, and lions in our pants I could tell you all my thoughts on God Don't mind his portraits, but I hate his psalms Were I a pious knob I know I'd try and listen [Chorus] Oh, rest a**ured Oh, there are harder ways to roam Oh, when you're tired just let me know Oh, we're not in Kansas anymore [Verse 3] You know it's not a stretch for me to say We're strange young hermits In a strange new place And through the years I hope it stays the same The bed is warm, but don't believe the hype And throw boring parties, live boring lives In saying this I feared enough to try And swallowed line and sinker [Chorus] Oh, rest a**ured Oh, there are harder ways to go Oh, when you're tired just let me know Oh, we're not in Kansas anymore [Verse 4] Some of us sleep seldom in the night We're goddamn mortals, with no goddamn time And in saying this Don't pay it any mind [Chorus] Oh, rest a**ured Oh, there are harder ways to go Oh, when you're tired just let me know Oh, we're not in Kansas anymore
