I Don't Want to Grow Up
When I'm lyin' in my bed at nightI don't wanna grow upNothing ever seems to turn out rightI don't wanna grow upHow do you move in a world of fogthat's always changing thingsMakes wish that I could be a dogWhen I see the price that you payI don't wanna grow upI don't ever want to be that wayI don't wanna grow upSeems that folks turn into thingsthat they never wantThe only thing to live for is today...I'm gonna put a hole in my T.V. setI don't wanna grow upOpen up the medicine chestI don't wanna grow upI don't wanna have to shout it outI don't want my hair to fall outI don't wanna be filled with doubtI don't wanna be a good boy scoutI don't wanna have to learn to countI don't wanna have the biggest amountI don't wanna grow upWell, when I see my parents fightI don't wanna grow upThey all go out and drinkin' all nightI don't wanna grow upI'd rather stay here in my roomNothin' out there but sad and gloomI don't wanna live in a big old tomb on Grand streetWhen I see the 5 o'clock newsI don't wanna grow upComb their hair and shine their shoesI don't wanna grow upStay around in my old hometownI don't wanna put no money downI don't wanna get a big old loanWork them fingers to the boneI don't wanna float on a broomFall in love, get married then boomHow the hell did it get here so soonI don't wanna grow up
