The Hives - Fall Is Just Something Grownups Invented

Woo hoo!

They say our summer vacation has
Come to an end
And we simply have no more holidays to spend
They say "No more barefoot
No playing around the pool"
They say now it's time for us
To "Go back to school"

Got all my friends and 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 ya how
We ended up with a Fall that we know in all

A time was invented to keep
The kids in the hall
They gave it a name and we
All know it is '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 is 'Fall'
The line of the story that I have presented
Fall is just something that
Grown ups invented

Kick it!

A time was invented to keep
The kids in the hall
They gave it a name and we
All know it is '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
