Grow Wild Songtext
von Ella Hooper

Me and the girls used to run around
Running rings around our little town
Playing up til the sun went down
We could circumnavigate it in no time
After school we would meet where we hid the bong down on Lily street
Climb up into the tallest tree

Wild

Wild

Sucking on a stalk of sour weed, cutting across honeysuckle creek
Trespassing private property, we were ignoring the Hazchem
Billy cart travelling at great speed
Heading for the old peppercorn tree
It′s not fun unless someone bleeds, safe and sound it wasn't

Oh we grew wild, free range all across the country side
Hey we grew wild, wild


Sliding down sheep shit hill on a hessian sack was a summer thrill
Strong bodies even stronger willed, oh do ya wanna be in my gang
Sitting on a stack of porno mags in the recycling shed, out the back
Where they gave ya money for bottle caps
And incinerated the soft plastic

I said, oh we grew wild
Free range, all across the country side
Oh we grew wild, wild, wild

You can say what you like but we must have done something right
Life long, still strong, still on a mission
You can′t make new old friends and if history pays dividends
We'll spend our last days reminiscing

About drawing with a stick on the dusty ground
The rooms, the walls of a pretend house
Where fights and drama were always allowed
Oh to idealise that again

I said we grew wild
Free range, all across the country side
Hey we grew wild

Free range with our lives intertwined

Oh we grew wild

Grow Wild, and stay wild
