I Don't Wanna Grow Up

When I'm laying in my bed at night 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 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 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, yeah I'm gonna put a hole in my TV 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 want to grow up That's right When I see my parents fight I don't wanna grow up They all go out drinkin' all night I don't wanna grow up I'd rather stay here in my room Nothin' out there but sad and gloom And I don't wanna live in a big old tomb on Grand Street When I see the five 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 and get married, then boom How the hell did I get here so soon? No, I don't want to grow up No, I don't want to grow up No, I don't want to grow up
