the ramones.i don't want to grow up

when i'm lyin' 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 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 want to be that way
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 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 wanna have the biggest amount
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
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 oclock 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 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 it get here so soon
i don't wanna grow up
