i don't wanna grow up

..really


(tom waits/k. brennan)When Im lyin in my bed at night I dont wanna grow up Nothin ever seems to turn out right I dont wanna grow up How do you move in a world of fog Thats always changing things Makes me wish that I could be a dog When I see the price that you pay I dont wanna grow up I dont ever wanna be that way I dont wanna grow up Seems like folks turn into things That theyd never want The only thing to live for Is today...Im gonna put a hole in my tv set I dont wanna grow up Open up the medicine chest And I dont wanna grow up I dont wanna have to shout it out I dont want my hair to fall outI dont wanna be filled with doubt I dont wanna be a good boy scout I dont wanna have to learn to count I dont wanna have the biggest amount I dont wanna grow up Well when I see my parents fight I dont wanna grow up They all go out and drinking all night And I dont wanna grow up Id rather stay here in my room Nothin out there but sad and gloomI dont wanna live in a big old tombOn grand streetWhen I see the 5 oclock news I dont wanna grow up Comb their hair and shine their shoes I dont wanna grow upStay around in my old hometown I dont wanna put no money down I dont wanna get me a big old loan Work them fingers to the bone I dont wanna float a broom Fall in love and get married then boom How the hell did I get here so soon I dont wanna grow up
