Grounded

[Verse 1]
When I was a kid, I
Never knew what it is, I
Mean getting old, having kids, I
Thought I'd never say that
But if I ever have a kid, will
They wanna know what I did, will
They make friends, build ships, get in trouble?

[Chorus]
Will you keep me grounded
When I feel surrounded, backed into a corner?
Everything you say I'm down with
Movie night Tuesdays, take me to the East Bay, asking if I'm okay
It's hard to be my own hero when the one I need is not close
Glad you came around, all I know now
Is you keep me grounded

[Post-Chorus]
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo, doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]
When our kid grows up, I'll
Be there for thе breakups
I'll make sure to listеn up, I
Thought I'd never say that
But when our kid gets a job, will
One day they be gone, will
They be there when I get ill?
The more I know

[Chorus]
I'll keep you grounded
When you feel surrounded, backed into a corner?
Everything I say you're down with
Staying in Wednesday, talk about the work day, asking if you're okay
It's hard to be your own hero when the one you need is not close
Glad you came around, all I know now
Is I'll keep you grounded

[Post-Chorus]
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo, doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, ooh-ooh

[Outro]
Oh, you keep me grounded
We'll ground them too if we have to
