Three dollars from the lemonade stand

Let's go back to when washing your hands was optional,
and kisses fixed it all

when three dollars from the lemonade stand was a success
and we made our own rules to chess

when all we played was brick breaker on dads blackberry
but the word "butt" couldn't be  in our vocabulary 

when we didn't care about peeing our pants 
instead we would sit in the tree and eat tons of ants

when parents paid for everything
and wore princess dresses and lots of bling

when no one cared what they looked like in a swimming suit
and kissing our cousins was super cute

when sleeping in a car was comfortable 
When we were all so vulnerable

when pet shops and polly pockets made friends
when we weren't worried about all the trends

when we weren't worried about getting asked on date
we just wanted to turn 8

when we just showed up at friends houses
and we didn't just play on our phones and sit on their couches 

when love wasn't one our biggest battles 'cause 
we didn't even know what war was
