Artist: Gogol Bordello
Song: I Would Never Wanna Be Young Again

By the desperate and confused emotion of the youth
I was brought to Crisis Island
Where after getting checked for fleas
And barricades of embassies
I was sculpted to be overworked and silent
But since the early age
I broke out of cage
And learned how to make marching drums from a fish can
And I knew I'll run away
And so without further delay
I said "Two years in a bucket
Motherfuck it!"
And it seems like I ran and ran
Through the garbage and quicksand
And after getting checked for fleas
And barricades of embassies
I would never never never never wanna be young again!
But sudden wind it stole my hat
And I went on chasing it
Before I was just another burned out carnie
Every freak on every day
Lives a life one certain way
And that way is ain't no nothing but a birthright
But since the early age
I broke out of cage
And it seems like I ran and ran
Through the garbage and quicksand
And after getting checked for fleas
And barricades of embassies
I would never never never never wanna be young again
