Five Lyrics - Singles - Daily Planet

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 

REPEAT CHORUS 

When I get to heaven, When I get to heaven
