WHEN I WAS…
WHEN I WAS SIX I HURT MY CHIN
WHEN I WAS SEVEN I SMASHED MY BROTHER’S FINGER
WHEN I WAS FIVE I PUT A CHICKPEA IN MY NOSE
WHEN I WAS FIVE I THREW MY DAD’S COMPUTER TO THE GROUND
WHEN I WAS BORN I HAD SIX FINGERS
WHEN I WAS SEVEN I SHOT MY BROTHER
WHEN I WAS FOUR I HAD HEART SURGERY
WHEN I WAS FIVE MY FRIEND PUSHED ME DOWN THE STAIRS
WHEN I WAS SIX I LOST CONSCIOUSNESS
WHEN I WAS FOUR I REMOVED MY BROTHER’S TOOTH
WHEN I WAS NINE MY BRO HIT ME WITH THE REMOTE
WHEN I WAS ELEVEN
I FAINTED, I FAINTED
WHEN I WAS ONE I HURT MY HEAD
WHEN I WAS EIGHT THE ICE BROKE UNDER MY FEET
WHEN I WAS EIGHT I BROKE MY FINGER
WHEN I WAS SEVEN MY DOG JUMPED ON THE ELASTIC BED
WHEN I WAS TEN A BIRD SHAT ON MY LEG
WHEN I WAS BORN I TURNED INTO YELLOW
WHEN I WAS BORN I TURNED INTO YELLOW
WHEN I WAS NINE I ALMOST FELL DOWN A PRECIPICE
WHEN I WAS FOUR I CUT MY HAIR
WHEN I WAS FIVE MY COUSIN FELL IN COLD WATER
WHEN I WAS SIX A BUM SMASHED MY HEAD
WHEN I WAS SEVEN MY FRIEND FELL IN AN EMPTY POOL
I FAINTED, I FAINTED, I FAINTED, I FAINTED

lyrics
When I Was Young
When I was young
I was the sun
Shone through the trees
Down to the ground
When I was young
I was the mountain
Knew all the birds
Had my own vision
When I was young
I was the river
Flowed through the mountain
Into the sea
When I was old
I was the ocean
Held all my friends
Throughout the end
I am I am (x4)
We are (x4)
(repeat with “when I was old”)
