I Don't Want To Grow Up

When I'm lyin' in my bed at nite 
I don't wanna grow up 
Nothing ever seems to turn out right 
And I don't wanna grow up 

How do you move in a world of fog that's always changing things 
Makes the 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 
And 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 want the biggest amount 
No 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 
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 

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 me 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 I get here so soon 

No I don't want to grow up
