When I get to heaven I want to be a 5 year old forever
A little closer to the ground
Look at all the change I found in the grocery store
I jumped off the couch today, I swear I was not afraid
`Cause I had on my red cape just like Superman
I caught a blue belly with my best buddy Eddie in the driveway yesterday
I got so excited that I squeezed the tail tight
It popped off and it got away, but that`s okay
It`s alright
CHORUS
When I was Five
Feeling so alive
Running proud and free
I`ll bet you can`t catch me, oh no
Running through the rain
Splashing in the mud
I can act insane
Living life` s my favorite game
When I get to heaven I want to be a 5 year old forever
I`ve got a fire engine that`s just my size
I`d drive all night to see the sunrise if my mom would let me
There is nothing I can`t do when I have on my underoos
Just like Luke Skywalker
I found I had a neighbor, a real trouble maker named Michael Carmody
He poked out all the knotholes in the fence
And gave me handfuls of his army figurines
So small and green (and good)
It`s alright
REPEAT CHORUS
The world had not yet lied to me
As far as I knew I was free
I was free, I was free
