Everybody's Gotta Grow Up Sometime Songtext
von Sons of the Desert

Why can′t I?

G.I. Joe moved to Mexico, he's hiding from the IRS
Wearing diamond rings and livin′ like a king at an undisclosed address
Superman flew to Japan gave up fightin' crime
He's doin′ commercials for compact cars livin′ in a big high rise

But everybody's gotta grow up sometime
To get a little slice of that big ol′ American pie
Yeah, everybody's gotta grow up sometime
Why can′t I?

The ol' Lone Ranger bought an RV Park somewhere in Arizona
And Tonto built a big casino and owns half of Oklahoma
Barbie and Ken, they got a divorce I guess that′s the way it goes
She got the house and accessories and told Ken to hit the road


But everybody's gotta grow up sometime
To get a little slice of that big ol' American pie
Yeah, everybody′s gotta grow up sometime
Why can′t I? Why can't I?

All of my heroes abandoned their egos
And left me at home on the range
I′m still stuck, I'm still down on my luck
Waitin′ for something to change

Everybody's gotta grow up sometime
To get a little slice of that big ol′ American pie
Yeah, everybody's gotta grow up sometime
Why can't I?

Everybody′s gotta grow up sometime
Why can′t I?
Everybody's gotta grow up sometime
Why can′t I?
Everybody's gotta grow up sometime
Why can′t I?
