Wonderland
Ke$ha Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Living out of my car, those were the days
We were all the wild ones, the wasted youth
Other than a dream, had nothing to lose
Ain't it funny how time flies? Fades into gold
Now I wanna do a drive-by but I can't find the road
Where it all began
Everything was so simple then
Living life like our last weekend
Wish I could find my way
Back to wonderland
Carrie's in the valley, she's got a kid
Julie's still a waitress living on tips
Sometimes we get together and shoot the shit
But it's not the same now, no, nothing is
Feels like it was a movie that plays in my mind
Shadows of a past life, wish I could rewind
Back to wonderland
Where it all began
Everything was so simple then
Living life like our last weekend
Wish I could find my way
Back to wonderland
Didn't have a clue what we were doing or where we would end up
Living off of nickels and dimes and our young reckless love
We didn't ever think that time would ever come to an end
Now if I could, you know I'd run
Back to wonderland
Where it all began
Everything was so simple then
Living life like our last weekend
Wish I could find my way
Back to wonderland

I was homeless and had no permanent residence during that time.
We were all the wild ones, the wasted youth
My friends and I were reckless and carefree, enjoying our youth to the fullest.
Other than a dream, had nothing to lose
I had no material possessions or ambitious goals besides chasing the vague dream of success.
Ain't it funny how time flies? Fades into gold

Back to wonderland
Returning to a naive, innocent time in my life.
Where it all began
The place where my current self was shaped and molded.
Everything was so simple then
Life was uncomplicated and easy to navigate in retrospect.
Living life like our last weekend
We lived frivolously as if tomorrow was never coming, always partying and having fun.
Wish I could find my way
I desire to rediscover this simpler, more carefree version of myself.
Carrie's in the valley, she's got a kid
One of my friends named Carrie has settled down and become a parent.
Julie's still a waitress living on tips
Another friend named Julie is still working as a server and lives modestly.
Sometimes we get together and shoot the shit
Occasionally, we catch up and reminisce about the old days with no particular purpose.
But it's not the same now, no, nothing is
While we remain friends, we have all grown apart and moved on with our adult lives.
Feels like it was a movie that plays in my mind
My past memories seem almost surreal or cinematic in nature.
Shadows of a past life, wish I could rewind
It's as if I'm haunted by echoes of my former self and wish I could go back and make different choices.
Didn't have a clue what we were doing or where we would end up
We had no sense of direction or long-term planning, just living day by day.
Living off of nickels and dimes and our young reckless love
We survived on very little and rode high on the adrenaline rush of our own youth.
We didn't ever think that time would ever come to an end
We believed that our carefree lifestyle could continue indefinitely.
Now if I could, you know I'd run
If I had the opportunity, I would escape from my current life and travel back to my past.
