While I'm lied 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 dog 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 that folks turn into things they never wanna be The only thing to live for is today I've 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 boyscout I don't wanna have to learn to count I don't want the biggest amount No, I don't want to grow up 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 Nothing out there but sad and gloom I don't wanna live in a big old tomb on grand street When I see the 5 0' 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 ol' hometown Don't wanna put no money down Don't wanna get a big ol' 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? No, I don't want to grow up
