[Verse 1]
Where you runnin' to?
Goin' nowhere
In your bathing suit
And neon hair

What's it all about?
This faded life
They say
"You gotta settle down!"

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm a little bit reckless
I'm a little unsteady
I'm a little bit childish
And you know I get petty

I don't wanna get jaded
I don't wanna be saying
"I wish I could do it all again!"

[Chorus]
These are the days of our golden youth (WO-oo-oh, oh)
These are the moments of our truth (WO-oo-oh, oh)
We're runnin' naked in the dark (WO-oo-oh, oh)
Why so serious?
I don't wanna get serious
These are the days of our golden youth
[musical melody]
These are the days of our golden youth
[musical melody]

[Verse2]
Whatchu runnin' from?
What's it feel like?
Traded all your love
For the high life

Got your fancy car
And trophy wife
Tell me
What's it like to settle down?

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm a little bit reckless
I'm a little unsteady
I'm a little bit childish
And you know I get petty

I don't wanna get jaded
I don't wanna be saying
"I wish I could do it all again!"
[Chorus]
These are the days of our golden youth (WO-oo-oh, oh)
These are the moments of our truth (WO-oo-oh, oh)
We're runnin' naked in the dark (WO-oo-oh, oh)
Why so serious?
I don't wanna get serious

These are the days of our golden youth
[musical melody]
These are the days of our golden youth
[musical melody]

[Bridge]
Oh child let's
Live while we're living
Let's love while we're lovin'
Like no tomorrows

Oh child let's
Live while we're living
Let's love while we're lovin'
Like no tomorrows ('morrows)

[Chorus/Outro]
These are the days of our golden youth (WO-oo-ah, oh)
These are the moments of our truth (WO-oo-ah, oh)
We're runnin' naked in the dark (WO-oo-ah, oh)
Why so serious?
I don't wanna get serious
These are the days of our golden youth
