Ludo Ode to Kevin Arnold Ludo Intro: I’m watching Kevin Arnold’s Wonder Years Tearfully nostalgic for them days back in ’69 When the world was all just me and Paul playing football in the street And Winnie Cooper was my love I’m watching Jerry Springer make me sick As America is throwing chairs again and I’m sitting in mine It was you and me versus crappy T.V. Apathetic together and glued to the screen Just wasting each other’s time alone with you I feel my world is starving there’s a metric ton of Easy Mac in my soul Oooo you know it’s not The Matrix That’s a movie and this is life we’re wasting here Do you remember the day I asked you to be mine Fifteen years old oh god I ached for you And I remember the way the sun looked on your hair All that honey-colored air                                                Okay let’s not be weird (play ) not be weird I’m watching Kevin Arnold’s Wonder Years Squandering my wonder years away as the credits roll by This isn’t my life that wasn’t my day Nor was Daniel Stern dictating what I should say I’ve been waiting for my line God I feel so far away I feel my world is starving there’s a metric ton of Easy Mac in my soul Oooo you know it’s not The Matrix That’s a movie and this is life we’re wasting here Do you remember the day I asked you to be mine Fifteen years old oh god I ached for you And I remember the way the sun looked on your hair All that honey-colored air Okay I swear it’s not too late to jump out of planes And go soaring against the sky I don’t know why it’s cool to be anti-everything When everything has left us here Where everyday is so unclean a Jell-O mold of mud and beer I want to take you way back where the sun was honey in the air Let’s hurry up and leave today before we both just slip away It’ll be okay

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque avec nostalgie les souvenirs d'enfance, en particulier les moments passés avec un ami et le premier amour. Elle fait référence à une époque révolue, où les préoccupations étaient simples et où les liens d'amitié étaient profonds. L'artiste compare ces souvenirs à des moments perdus, tout en réalisant que la vie actuelle peut sembler insatisfaisante face à la superficialité des distractions modernes, comme la télévision. Il y a une envie de revenir à des jours plus simples, loin des complications de la vie adulte.
