Lyrics

You've been talking to past versions of yourself Now I'm gonna pitch in from somewhere else (The Future) A letter to my younger self at 33 I'm an old man now so listen to me All I've got to do is potter around And think of all the youth I've squandered with a furrow in my brow With my head up in those thunderclouds Being somewhere else from where I was Yes you're in a war my son, you gotta fight sometimes to make sure that it's won Stay Rad, kid Stay Rad, kid If you aren't in the battle, get off the front line Stay Rad, kid Stay Rad, kid Cos you can't be fighting battles all of the time Take a look at that wonderful wife of ours At the centre of this hectic life of ours Always there with you and you're a million miles away A million miles, what a waste When will you realise that you can be your own friend? Open up your eyes to beauty again Because there's some of it in every tiny thing But only in the moment that you're in Don't worry 'bout doing II-Vs all the time I really don't think anyone really minds Stay Rad, kid Stay Rad, kid If you aren't in the battle, get off the front line Stay Rad, kid Stay Rad, kid Cos you can't be fighting battles all of the time And if you make a song of this letter of mine Maybe it can serve to remind The only place that you can truly be alive Is wherever you are at that time (Everything is going to be alright, you'll be fine. Stay Rad) Stay Rad, kid Stay Rad, kid If you aren't in the battle, get off the front line Stay Rad, kid Stay Rad, kid Cos you can't be fighting battles all of the time One last gift from me to you, a little couplet that you can use Open your eyes and you'll be fine And I'll see you in 47 years time Stay Rad Now give a kiss to the love of your life Half a verse will have to do just fine
