Lyrics

Don't take it so hard
It's part of the plan
And all for the best
And after all
Your partying's done
And you finally lie down
You'll welcome the rest

Now youth is a myth
That stares in the mirror
And misses the point
Believing the lies
That vanity shouts
All that beautiful noise
Noise

We rise from the womb
We sink to the grave
Our cycle's complete
And even the strongest
Must loosen their grip
Must suffer defeat.

But nature is law
And nature has won
It says you won't always be

Foolish and Young
Foolish and Young
Foolish and Young
Foolish and Young

Why do so many fools
Just sit on that hill
And not enter the dance
Their ageless excuses
Not enough money
Never the chance

But the years like to wrinkle
All of our plans
Our good looks and our minds
So summon your courage
Courage man
You can't always be

Foolish and Young
Foolish and Young
Foolish and Young
Foolish and Young
Foolish and Young
