Unbelievable Lyrics

It’s unbelievable
This is as good as it gets
It’s unbelievable
Don’t know what’s gonna happen next
It’s unbelievable
You haven’t seen nothing yet
It’s unbelievable, it’s unbelievable

[VERSE 1]
When I was a kid I saved up all my dough so I could buy C3PO
Put Mentos in my Diet Coke in the backseat of the bus
When I was a kid I ate “Spaghetti Os”, played laser tag and GI Joe's
And if you vowed no girls allowed then you could join the club
When I was I was a kid I spent my Saturday's
Blowin' on Nintendo games
The newest thing was Lion King and I could feel the love

[Chorus]
It’s unbelievable
This is as good as it gets
It’s unbelievable
Don’t know what’s gonna happen next
It’s unbelievable
You haven’t seen nothing yet
It’s unbelievable, it’s unbelievable

[VERSE 2]
When I was a kid I dreamed of Power Wheels
Stayed up late watching action films
And I won’t lie, my friends and I, were too legit to quit
When I was a kid I lived for climbing trees and Doctor Pepper jellybeans
My favorite part of “Jurassic Park” was how real the Raptors looked
When I was a kid I still had VHS, watched Fresh Prince and Jazzy Jeff, Zack Morrison, the first cell phone, it was off the hook!

[Chorus]
It’s unbelievable
This is as good as it gets
It’s unbelievable
Don’t know what’s gonna happen next
It’s unbelievable
You haven’t seen nothing yet
It’s unbelievable, it’s unbelievable

[BRIDGE]
Cat pogs and floam and home alone, Berenstain bears and bean bag chairs
My L.A. Looks and Goosebumps books, oh Etch-a-sketch
What happens next?
Grape juicy juice and Dr. Seuss, piggy-back rides and
Slip-n-slides, McDonalds Fries, those were the best
What happens next ?

[Chorus]
It’s unbelievable
This is as good as it gets
It’s unbelievable
Don’t know what’s gonna happen next
It’s unbelievable
You haven’t seen nothing yet
It’s unbelievable, those were the days oh-oh

It’s unbelievable
When I think back on my name
It’s unbelievable
Cause baby those were the days
It’s unbelievable
It ruled in so many ways
It’s unbelievable, it’s unbelievable

(and I’m so amazed!)
(Those were the days!)
(Nananana nanananananana nananana nananana na)

Cover art for Unbelievable  lyrics by Owl City

We connected with so many different things that we remember as kids, things that we thought were so mind blowing as far as technology and kind of the latest, greatest thing at the time. In a lot of cases, depending on the product, it isn’t really around anymore. We had a blast just being like, “I forgot all about this. You guys remember this thing and this thing?” Just trying to find all these ways to work nostalgia into song. So, that track is kind of a trip down memory lane a little bit.
