Irrational Anthem Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I remember wishing I was older
Always something big around the corner
But as the years go by, I'm growing younger
Open eyes and head still filled with wonder
Wonder, oooooohhh
Mmm, oooooohhh

[Chorus]
Pledge allegiance, everybody stand up
This is our irrational anthem
We don't care if they don't understand us
This is our irrational, irrational anthem
Whooaaa
Whooaaa

[Verse 2]
Let your mind go anywhere it wants to
Make your wildest wish and watch it come true
Somehow, somewhere we forgot
Cowboys, Indians, Astronauts
All the dreams that we could not hold on to
Take it back, ooooohhhhh

(1, 2, 3, 4)
[Chorus]
Pledge allegiance, everybody stand up
This is our irrational anthem
We don't care if they don't understand us
This is our irrational, irrational anthem
[Bridge]
There's nothing worse than normal
There's no fun in mundane
When everyone else gets older
I refuse to change
Weak or Strong, right or wrong
Whose side are you on

[Chorus]
Pledge allegiance, everybody stand up
This is our irrational anthem
We don't care if they don't understand us
This is our irrational, irrational anthem

Pledge allegiance, everybody stand up
This is our irrational anthem
We don't care if they don't understand us
This is our irrational, irrational anthem
Oooooohhh
Oooooohhh
Oooooohhh
Oooooohhh
