Artist: Elbow
Song: Lippy Kids
Album: Build a Rocket Boys!
Year: 2011
"Do they know those days are golden? Build a rocket, boys! Build a rocket, boys!
"Nobody knew me at home anymore, build a rocket, boys! Build a rocket, boys!"
*A COMMENT: I think this song is about looking back and remembering your days as a teenager... And now that you are a bit or much older, you wonder if the teens know those days are unrepeatable, you wonder if they acknowledge that fact, hence the 'build a rocket' phrase, encouraging them to do whatever they want while they are able to. To be fair I think the vast majority of people, when a teenager, do not recognize it, cannot recognize it, because there is this hint where life only makes sense backwards. Could you imagine if we knew back then what we know now? Maybe we would do things differently or maybe we would gladly make the same mistakes again... HAVE AN EXCELLENT START TO THE WEEK!
