Nada Surf - Happy Kid lyrics

I'm just a happy kid Stuck with the heart of a sad punk Drowning in my id Always searching like it's on junk No matter who i hang out with I can hear the clack clunk Of the chains that pull the cars up The roller coaster mountain top so high When it comes down it shoots back up Straight back to the sky I gotta laugh and then i'm asleep And then i walk around and wanna cry Out at night to do the strand The little candles make the bottles glow Got ink all over my right hand Getting crushes with no chance to grow It's like i'll never ever land There's always too much sun Or too much snow I get slow days and no days I get rusty and it's hard But i get notions that oceans Are coming to my call You can learn to get along I'm just a happy kid Stuck with the heart of an old punk Drowning in my id Always hungry like it's on junk I'm just a happy kid
