I Don’t Want to Grow Up Songtext
When I′m lying in my bed at night
I don't wanna grow up
Nothing ever seems to turn out right
I don′t wanna 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
When I see the price that you pay
I don't wanna grow up
I don′t ever want to be that way
I don′t wanna grow up
Seems that folks turn into things that 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 wanna grow up
Open up the medicine chest
I don′t wanna grow up
I don't wanna have to shout it out
I don′t want my hair to fall out
I don't wanna be filled with doubt
I don't wanna be a good boy scout
I don′t wanna have to learn to count
I don′t wanna have the biggest amount
I don't wanna grow up
Well, when I see my parents fight
I don′t wanna grow up
They all go out and drinking all night
I don't wanna grow up
I′d rather stay here in my room
Nothing out there but sad and gloom
I don't wanna live in a big old tomb on Grand Street
When I see the 5 o′clock news
I don't wanna grow up
Comb their hair and shine their shoes
I don't wanna grow up
Stay around in my old hometown
I don′t wanna put no money down
I don′t wanna get a big old loan
Work them fingers to the bone
I don't wanna float on a broom
Fall in love, get married then boom
How the hell did it get here so soon
No, I don′t want to grow up
I don't wanna grow up
Nothing ever seems to turn out right
I don′t wanna 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
When I see the price that you pay
I don't wanna grow up
I don′t ever want to be that way
I don′t wanna grow up
Seems that folks turn into things that 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 wanna grow up
Open up the medicine chest
I don′t wanna grow up
I don't wanna have to shout it out
I don′t want my hair to fall out
I don't wanna be filled with doubt
I don't wanna be a good boy scout
I don′t wanna have to learn to count
I don′t wanna have the biggest amount
I don't wanna grow up
Well, when I see my parents fight
I don′t wanna grow up
They all go out and drinking all night
I don't wanna grow up
I′d rather stay here in my room
Nothing out there but sad and gloom
I don't wanna live in a big old tomb on Grand Street
When I see the 5 o′clock news
I don't wanna grow up
Comb their hair and shine their shoes
I don't wanna grow up
Stay around in my old hometown
I don′t wanna put no money down
I don′t wanna get a big old loan
Work them fingers to the bone
I don't wanna float on a broom
Fall in love, get married then boom
How the hell did it get here so soon
No, I don′t want to grow up
