Lyrics

[Verse 1] Well, when I'm lyin' in my bed at night I don't wanna grow up Nothin' ever seem 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 [Verse 2] 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 Seem like folks turn into things That they'd never want The only thing to live for is today [Bridge] 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 I don't wanna grow up [Verse 3] 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 [Outro] When I see the five o'clock news I don't wanna grow up They 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 it get here so soon? I don't wanna grow up
