Fall Is Just Something Grownups Invented Lyrics

They say our summer vacation
Has come to an end
And that we simply have no more holiday to spend
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e89948-the_hives~fall_is_just_something_grownups_invented_lyrics.html ]
They say no more barefoot
No playing around in the pool
They say now it's time for us to go back to school

Got all my friends, a teacher, okay
But why do we really have to study all day
Well see I'm on to your scam and I'll tell you how
We ended up with a Fall that we know of now

A time was invented to keep the kids in the hall
They gave it a name and we all know it as Fall
The line of the story that I have presented
Fall is just something that grown-ups invented.

Though some things in Fall are just too good to pass
Jumping in leaves and Halloween is a gas
But I'd rather see to it that the truth be told
So I better do it now before I grow old

They wanted a break after the summer disarray
To rest up then handle the stress of Christmas day
So the grown-ups got together and made up the rule
That kids shouldn't be playing
No they should be in school

A time was invented to keep the kids in the hall
They gave it a name and we all know it as Fall
The line of the story that I have presented
Fall is just something that grown-ups invented.

Break

A time was invented to keep the kids in the hall
They gave it a name and we all know it as Fall
The line of the story that I have presented
Fall is just something that grown-ups invented.

Fall is just something that grown-ups invented
Fall is just something that grown-ups invented
Fall is just something that grown-ups invented
Fall is just something that grown-ups invented
