British Hip-Hop duo Rizzle Kicks' third single from their debut album Stereo Typical finds them looking back at their pre-adolescent hopes and dreams. The duo reminisce about a time when they wanted to be firemen and fly around the world before mourning their vanished ambitions. The song was released on October 23, 2011 as a digital download in the United Kingdom.

This samples The Clash's "Revolution Rock," a track from the punk rockers 1979 album, London Calling.
