I guess not

About this song: Kids

Kids is the Grammy Award nominated third single from MGMT's debut album Oracular Spectacular. It was released October 13, 2008. According to the Kids Songfacts, the song is about being filled with such typical college feelings as naivety, idealism, nostalgia, happiness and sadness . Kids has been re-recorded several times. The "newer" version that appears on Oracular Spectacular is updated from earlier versions that appear on Time To Pretend EP released in 2005 and We (don't) Care released a year before.
