The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
Well, when I'm lyin' in my bed at night I don't want to grow up Nothin' ever seems to turn out right I don't want to grow up How do you move in a world of fog That's always changing things? Makes me wish that I could be a dog Well, when I see the price that you pay I don't want to grow up I don't ever want to be that way I don't want to grow up Seems like folks turn into things they they'd never want The only thing to live for is today I'm gonna put a hole in my T.V. set I don't want to grow up Open up the medicine chest And I don't want to grow up I don't want to have to shout it out I don't want my hair to fall out I don't want to be filled with doubt I don't want to be a good boy scout I don't want to have to learn to count I don't want to have the biggest amount I don't want to grow up Well, when I see my parents fight I don't want to grow up They all go out and drinking all night And I don't want to grow up I'd rather say here in my room Nothin' out there but sad and gloom I don't want to live in a big old tomb on Grand Street, hoo When I see the five o'clock news I don't want to grow up Comb their hair and shine their shoes I don't want to grow up Stay around in my old hometown I don't want to put no money down I don't want to get me a big old loan Work them fingers to the bone I don't want to float a broom Fall in love and get married then boom How the hell did I get here so soon? I don't want to grow up
