I Don’t Wanna Grow Up Songtext
von Scarlett Johansson

Well, when I′m lyin' in my bed at night, I don′t wanna grow up
Nothin' 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

Well, when I see the price that you pay, I don′t wanna grow up
I don't ever wanna be that way, I don′t wanna grow up
Seems like 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 TV set, I don't wanna grow up
Open up the medicine chest, and 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
And 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, and I don't wanna grow up
I′d rather stay here in my room, nothin' out there but sad and gloom
I don't wanna live in a big old tomb on Grand Street, ooh!

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 me a big old loan
Work them fingers to the bone
I don′t wanna float a broom
Fall in love and get married, then boom
How the hell did we get here so soon
Well, I don't wanna grow up
