I was locked all day in the summer heat,
In a small brown house in suburban streets
With my skateboard and my %#@! guitar,

I dreamed all day that they would get me far.
My dad would ask me about my grades,
The $$#hole sports that I never played.

And then I'd ask about the girls he'd date,behind our back when mom had stayed up late.
It was near when I turned 16,
Got kicked out of school and so it seemed,

Things were closing in and ready to blow.
My dad moved out about that year or so.
I'd talk in hours to start a punk rock band,

To upset my f**ked up family land.
And as i held my mum would start to cry,
I swore ourselves, a better life


If I had a chance for another try,
I wouldn't change a thing

This made me all on who I am inside
And if I could thank god
That I am here, and that I am alive

And everyday I wake
I tell myself a little harmless lie
The whole wide world is mine


The summers gone, the years have passed,
My friends have changed, a few did last,

The smallest dreams got pushed aside,
The largest ones that changed my life,
And all I wish for was come to past

From rock and roll, to love and cash
It's all success if it's what you need
Do what you like and do it honestly





If I had a chance for another try,
I wouldn't change a thing
This made me all on who I am inside

And if I could thank god
That I am here, and that I am alive
And everyday I wake

I tell myself a little harmless lie
The whole wide world is mine


Yo oh oh oh
Yo oh oh
Yo oh oh oh

Yo Oh Oh
Yo Oh Oh Oh
Yo Oh Oh

Yo Oh Oh Oh
Yo Oh Oh


final chorus:

If I had a chance for another try,

I wouldn't change a thing
This made me all on who I am inside
And if I could thank god

That I am here, and that I am alive
And everyday I wake
I tell myself a little harmless lie

The whole wide world is mine

The whole wide world is mine!

And the whole wide world is mine!
