About Charlie Brown

The Charlie Brown Songfacts reports that Chris Martin penned the song after attending a Bruce Springsteen concert in LA. He told Music Week, “I was like, ‘Okay, let’s see if anything came out of that day.’” He added that he wrote it in a friend’s Wendy House, which he had turned into a studio because his daughter didn't like it. .

Charlie Brown Lyrics

[00:53.42] Stole a key
[00:57.73] Took a car downtown where the lost boys meet
[01:01.29] Took a car downtown and took what they offered me
[01:06.58] To set me free
[01:10.78] I saw the lights go down at the end of the scene
[01:14.25] Saw the lights go down and standing in front of me
[01:20.29]
[01:32.40] In my scarecrow dreams
[01:36.93] When they smash my heart into smithereens
[01:40.44] Be a bright red rose come bursting the concrete
[01:45.46] Be a cartoon heart
[01:50.39] Light a fire, a fire a spark
[01:53.78] Light a fire, a flame in my heart
[01:58.50] We'll run wild
[02:01.99] We'll be glowing in the dark
[02:08.73]
[02:15.06] We'll be glowing in the dark
[02:22.26]
[02:29.84] All the boys, all the girls, all that matters in the world
[02:36.79] All the boys, all the girls, all the madness that occurs
[02:43.79] All the highs, all the lows, as the room a-spinning goes
[02:52.43] We'll run riot
[02:55.90] We'll be glowing in the dark
[03:02.80]
[03:49.76] So we'll soar
[03:56.99] Luminous and wired
[04:01.17] We'll be glowing in the dark
[04:05.09]
