	Story Behind the Song I was watching cartoons and trying to find a melody to a riff I had been working on and there it was, right in front of me. The song was written over two weeks but finally recorded in one take. The piano and electric guitar were added later. Lyrics When I was a little boy watchin' my cartoons Considered never problems ever watching' my cartoons Where did me as a child go? I wish I knew I suppose he's still around somewhere dancing nude And only knows that life is so messy When I was a little squirt between naps and eating dirt never considered the birds or bees only my cartoons When I was a little dear still forcing things in my ear several animal lives were saved by my cartoons I miss running in those shoes every spank on my caboose even every chore I'd do just to watch the next cartoon Don't regret a recess missed to avoid the slightest kiss I knew deadly germs were found where there was a girl around When I was a little guy fast asleep well before nine dreamt of being super and, of course, my cartoons Where did me as a child go? I wish I knew I suppose he's still around Somewhere around here somewhere When I was a little man rode my bike because I could never saw a soul outside before my cartoons And animation kept my head dreamin' I miss running in those shoes all the physical abuse every careless escapade repaid by cuts and by scrapes
