Wave 2 track 01
90s Kids
A bright nostalgia rush about Pop Rocks, comic books, cheat codes, and the tiny everyday details that made growing up in the 90s feel huge.
Lyrics
Walkman humming, tapes to rewind Endless running, no alarms to mind Streetlights flicker, bikes in the park Late-night laughing, right beneath the stars
Moments pass and childhood ends We’d never feel those things again We didn’t know those were the days But they’ll never fade away
I've got Pop Rocks on the bus I'm cartwheeling just because And I don't think life gets better than this Comic books are on my mind I'm sketching Batman all the time Yeah I don't think life can get better than this I guess we were just 90's kids
Glow-in-the-dark stars on bedroom walls Dreaming big, but thinking small Flashing back to where we’ve been Skies are clear and grass so green We didn’t know those were the days But they’ll never fade away
Breaking cheat codes in Mortal Kombat rage Pogs and slammers stole center stage Sony Walkman, mixtapes rewind Laser pointers in school — got in trouble every time
I've got Pop Rocks on the bus I'm cartwheeling just because And I don't think life gets better than this No, I know life will never get better than this I guess we were just 90's kids
