You've got your pen and pencil
I'm in a paper dream
You should come write all over me
And we'll give them something to read

You've got your words of wisdom
And I've got a few chords to play
We should borrow a microphone
And put it all down to tape

So let's start the new kid revival
We'll make it up as we go along
And if they tell us that we're doing it wrong
We'll just turn up the sound
Turn up the sound of our songs

You've got five feet of fabric
And I've got a needle and thread
We should print out a page of patterns
And make a room full of friends

I've got my old beat up camera
And you've got a fresh roll of film
We should paint out a bunch of backgrounds
And shoot a box full of stills

So let's start the new kid revival
We'll make it up as we go along
And if they tell us that we're doing it wrong
We'll just turn up the sound
Turn up the sound of our songs

It doesn't matter if we're making them money
It doesn't matter if we're making their list
All that matters is we keep on dancing
To the beat of our homemade hits

So let's start the new kid revival
We'll make it up as we go along
And if they tell us that we're doing it wrong
We'll just turn up the sound
Turn up the sound of our songs
