Intro
Verse 1
Well, 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 do-og
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 to be
The only thing to live for is toda-ay
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
Chorus 1
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
Verse 2
Well, when I see my parents fight I don't wanna grow up
They always go out and drinkin' 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, boom
When I see the 5 o'clock news I don't wanna grow up
They comb their hair and shine their shoes, I don't wanna grow up
Chorus 2
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
