🎤 Lyrics: MGMT - Kids
[Intro]
Five, four, three, two, one, ah!
[Verse 1]
You were a child crawling on your knees toward it
Making mama so proud, but your voice is too loud
We like to watch you laughing
You pick the insects off plants, no time to think of consequences
[Chorus]
Control yourself, take only what you need from it
A family of trees wanted to be haunted
Control yourself, take only what you need from it
A family of trees wanted to be haunted
[Verse 2]
The water is warm, but it's sending me shivers
A baby is born crying out for attention
The memories fade like looking through a fogged mirror
Decision to decisions are made and not bought
But I thought this wouldn't hurt a lot, I guess not
[Chorus]
Control yourself, take only what you need from it
A family of trees wanted to be haunted
Control yourself, take only what you need from it
A family of trees wanted to be haunted
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Control yourself, take only what you need from it
A family of trees wanted to be haunted
Control yourself, take only what you need from it
A family of trees wanted to be haunted
Control yourself, take only what you need from it
A family of trees wanted to be haunted
Control yourself, take only what you need from it
A family of trees

Today I feel the want to go back to being a kid. Getting to see my friends everyday at school is something I cherished but it still feels like I took it for granted.

Unrelated, but: The ending of this song reminds me of one of the songs on the Age of Mythology Original Sound Track - namely "Gary's Reserve" (End Credits song) - also the whole OST pretty neat, although I might be blinded by nostalgia.

This is my nostalgia song, it was literally my childhood. My dad would play this all the time along with foo fighters and the living end, but this is the one I specifically remember just stopping and listening to when it came on. Tbh it makes me kinda sad to think about because it reminds me of the house I grew up in before my parents divorced. Now I’m somewhere that doesn’t feel like it’s really my home and the only things I have to remind me of it are these songs.

[@Dd-ue4ct]

What I like about reading this comment section is how universal the nostalgia for this song is. And not just from its original release but often years later For so many people, there was just a simpler time in our lives where we had this song playing over and over. Those simpler days are behind us but every time we hear this song we can visit them for a few minutes

At this time in my life when this came out I was living in an apartment in San Antonio…my neighbor downstairs was a pretty girl named nicki. She was a heroin addict. But she was really chill down to earth ppl. We had some of the most interesting convos I ever had in my life. This was 2009-2010….it is now 2022. I always wondered how she is doing or if she is even still alive. It sucks. Some ppl come into your life and u don’t even know that they are a blessing. She was a good girl. A philosopher. A good mind. A good spirit. I miss her energy.

The only comfort I get is the lonely silence and this song. It's amazing, when everything is lost I find myself in the comfort of loneliness and silence among the shadowy things. They seem to share the same thing as me. I've always had bad things happen to me, but I'm very lucky at the same time, maybe because the night creatures look after me. Idk. But I miss the darkness and the moon, I miss howling up at the night sky, running in the dark cold air, it is my comfort. Children of the night go crazy, go stupid. We still here.
