Now We Are Sixteen by THUMPERS Lyrics

[VERSE]
[MALE VOICE 1]
Me and the boys got time to spare
And I’ve called you there to see me before I turn into me
We’ll draw straws to tell who goes which way
We’ll follow fireworks down to the lake and jump in
And stare up at the sky

Put off your doubts and wondering
Pull out your sad-sister eyes and tumble in now
The water lifts you up with it and heals your aching arms
Talk to me now like we’re sixteen

[Chorus]
16, 16
Or you wish you were

You're 16, 16
Or you wish you were

You're 16, 16
Or you wish you were
You're 16, 16
Or you wish you were

[INSTRUMENTAL]

[Chorus]
16, 16
Or you wish you were

You're 16, 16
Or you wish you were

You're 16, 16
Or you wish you were

You're 16, 16
Or you wish you were

[VERSE]
[MALE VOICE 2]
Talk to me, girl, like we’re sixteen
Talk to me like you want me to be
Everything seems better when we’re sixteen

[FEMALE VOICE AND MALE VOICE 1]
Talk to me, boy, like we’re sixteen
Talk to me like you want me to be
Everything seems better when we’re sixteen
[MALE VOICE 1]
Pull off your clothes and wander in
Just lift your arms in response and tumble in now
And circles where you surface mean I’ll know just where you’ve been
Talk to me now like we’re sixteen
