I Don't Wanna Grow Up

When I'm lyin' 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 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 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 drinkin' all night

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

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?

I don't wanna grow up
