Best song ever written

I'm just a happy kid Stuck with the heart of a sad punk Drowning in my id Always searching like it's on junk No matter who I hang out with I can hear the clack-clunk Of the chains that pull the cars up The roller coaster mountain top so high When it comes down it shoots back up Straight back to the sky I gotta laugh and then I'm asleep And then I walk around and wanna cry Out at night to do the strand The little candles make the bottles glow Got ink all over my right hand Getting crushes with no chance to grow It's like I'll never ever land There's always too much sun Or too much snow I get slow days and no days I get rusty and it's hard But I get notions and oceans Are coming to my call You can learn to get along And I'm just a happy kid Stuck with the heart of a sad punk Drowning in my id Always searching like it's on junk No matter who I hang out with I can hear the clack-clunk Of the chains that pull the cars up The roller coaster mountain top so high When it comes down it shoots back up Straight back to the sky I gotta laugh and then I'm asleep And then I walk around and wanna cry I'm just a happy kid

Thank you so much for taking the time to write out these lyrics, I first saw nada surf supporting the blue tones in Jersey, ( channel islands) 2002 and was instantly hooked, saw them a couple of times in London in the early noughties but kind of lost track of them after the weight is a gift. Just getting back into them now. just an awesome band. Lots of good memories listening to this album again. ❤
