00:00As children we would play for hours

00:09And told off if we picked the flowers

00:12That we'd be grounded if we did

00:16But those were the happiest years

00:21We learned our lessons from our peers

00:24That's what it was like when we were kids

00:28And we were good

00:31We were always praised

00:34That's just how good we were raised

00:37And we've not turned out too bad

00:40And those days

00:43Those retro days

00:46Were the best days we ever had

00:49Those retro days made us who we are

00:57I remember driving my first car

01:00And all the times when it broke down

01:04I'd spend many hours underneath

01:09And get covered in dirt and grease

01:12Just to repair that clonking sound

01:16When we were good

01:19We were always praised

01:22That's just how good we were raised

01:25And we've not turned out too bad

01:28And those days

01:31Those retro days

01:34Were the best days we ever had

01:37I recall vinyl record sounds

02:06As they would spin round and round

02:08And the old programs aired on TV

02:12Now people stare

02:15Now people stare

02:16And mobile phones

02:18Sitting there with their minds all blown

02:20From a sight I thought I'd never see

02:24When we were good

02:27When we were good

02:28When we were good

02:29We were always praised

02:30That's just how good we were raised

02:33And we've not turned out too bad

02:37And those days

02:39Those retro days

02:42Were the best days we ever had

02:45We're the best days we ever had

03:06We're the best days we ever had

03:19We're the best days we were

03:20The best days we ever had
