Well, I stood stone-like at midnight
Suspended in my masquerade
And I combed my hair, it was just right 
And commanded the night brigade
I was open to pain and crossed by the rain 
And I walked on a crooked crutch
I strolled all alone through a fallout zone 
And came out with my soul untouched
I hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd
But when they said, "Sit down" I stood up
Ooh, growin' up

The flag of piracy flew from my mast
My sails were set wing to wing
I had a jukebox graduate for a first mate
She couldn't sail but she sure could sing
And I pushed B-52 and bombed them with the blues 
With my gear set stubborn on standing
I broke all the rules, strafed my old high school
Never once gave thought to landing
I hid in the clouded warmth of the crowd
But when they said, "Come down" I threw up
Ooh, growin' up

Work it back now

I took month-long vacations in the stratosphere
And you know it's really hard to hold your breath
I swear I lost everything I ever loved or feared
I was the cosmic kid in full costume dress
But my feet they finally took root in the earth
But I got me a nice little place in the stars
And I swear I found the key to the universe 
In the engine of an old parked car
I hid in the mother breast of the crowd
When they said, "Pull down" I pulled up
Ooh, growin' up
Ooh, growin' up
