Lyrics for Young & Dumb
Song by Avril Lavigne, Simple Plan

[Intro: Avril Lavigne & Pierre Bouvier, Avril Lavigne]
Woah, woah, woah
(Back when we were young and dumb and we knew everything)

[Verse 1: Avril Lavigne]
2002, and I’m hangin’ on a tour bus
Leavin’ my hometown, Napanee (Bye)
Rockin’ a necktie, black eyeliner
White tank top and I’m chasin’ my dreams, yeah

[Pre-Chorus: Avril Lavigne]
Livin’ like a rockstar
Trashin’ hotel rooms (Oops)
Let’s get stupid tattoos (Okay)
‘Cause we’ve got nothin’ to lose (Ha)

[Chorus: Avril Lavigne]
I’ve been thinkin’ ’bout that summer when we had each other
Back when we were young and dumb and we knew everything
We said this would last forеver, can’t get any bettеr
Like when we were young and dumb and we had everything

[Post-Chorus: Avril Lavigne, Avril Lavigne & Pierre Bouvier]
(Woah) These are the best nights
(Woah) Livin’ our best life
(Woah) Like when we were young and dumb and we knew everything

[Verse 2: Pierre Bouvier, Avril Lavigne, Both]
We’re back again, now it’s twenty years later (Hey, boys)
Somehow it feels like nothing’s changed (Haha)
I’m just a kid, still a pop-punk skater
They told me, “Get a job,” but I said, “No way“

[Pre-Chorus: Pierre Bouvier]
Livin’ like a rockstar
Trashing dressing rooms (My bad)
Smashing Fender guitars (Woo)
‘Cause we got nothin’ to lose

[Chorus: Avril Lavigne & Pierre Bouvier]
I’ve been thinkin’ ’bout that summer when we had each other
Back when we were young and dumb and we knew everything
We said this would last forever, can’t get any better
Like when we were young and dumb and we had everything

[Post-Chorus: Avril Lavigne & Pierre Bouvier, Avril Lavigne]
(Woah) These are the best nights
(Woah) Livin’ our best life
(Woah) Like when we were young and dumb and we knew everything
(Woah) These are the best nights
(Woah) Livin’ our best life
(Woah) Like when we were young and dumb and we knew everything

[Outro: Avril Lavigne & Pierre Bouvier]
I’ve been thinkin’ ’bout that summer when we had each other
Back when we were young and dumb and we knew everything
