By the end of the song he's so dismayed by this that he's kinda screaming out that he can stay up as long as he wants and that no one makes him wait...the sort of things that are important if you are a kid.

In a concert in Amsterdam for "This Desert Life", on October 17, 1999,[4] Duritz adds, We wrote this song in 1989 ... We were all in bands and we had shitty jobs.

The original by the Himalayans is done in a more "pure" rock style—somewhat harder and faster, with prominent electric guitar and bass parts.
