Gangway

Bound to Grow Up

Gangway


It's no fun to wake up
in the morning realizing
that last night you went too far
and someone got really hurt
and now it's too late to explain
or make it up to her
but she will be alright,
very soon she will forget
and so will I, yes I will

But it's so hard when you are young
and you don't quite know what to do
and you still think it's important to do
all the right things causing you to
come on too strong whenever you feel insecure
but I guess you're bound to grow up
some day

It's much worse to wake up
in the morning realizing
that last night you were too kind
and someone got really hurt
because here she is -
the object of pity

But it's so hard when you are young
and you don't quite know what to do
and you still think it's important to do
all the right things causing you to
come on too strong whenever you feel insecure
but I guess you're bound to grow up
some day

Here I am, well hello there
why did you expect so much of me
I'm the big man around here
with premature ejaculations and of course bad breath

Why can't you see that talking to me
calls for a different approach, some sort of ease
to make things work out, to have a good time

But it's so hard when you are young
and you don't quite know what to do
and you still think it's important to do
all the right things causing you to
come on too strong whenever you feel insecure
but I guess you're bound to grow up
some day
