While 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 dog

When I see that price that you pay, I don't want to grow up

I don't ever wanna be that way, I don't wanna grow up

Seems that folks turn into things they never want to be

The only thing to live for is today

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

  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 hafta learn to count

I don't want the biggest amount

  No I don't want to grow up

 [ ] x2

 [ ] x2

When I see my parents fight, I don't want to 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 ol tomb

  on Grand St.

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
