Let's Be Kids Lyrics

Let's be kids again
Life was so simple then
Let's be kids again
Again

We don't wanna know about this currency
We don't wanna know about this 9 till 5
Just a simple life
Can you picture this?
Yeah

We don't wanna hear about your policies
We don't wanna live up to these expectations
A child-like dream
Yeah you know what I mean
Yeah

Let's be kids again
Life was so simple then
Let's be kids again
Again

Everyone's gotta reason to be free
Everybody wants a lifetime just to be
A child-like dream
Yeah you know what I mean
Yeah

Let's be kids again
Life was so simple then
Let's be kids again
Again

Somebody told me
Don't ever look back
Just look to the future
Well I can do that
But just for a moment
I wanna be free
To dream like I used to
Dream we could be

Let's be kids again
Life was so simple then
Let's be kids again
Again

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
