For so long i've been told to give it up To get a job and stop dreaming of what I'm dreaming of Maybe if I was more like you I'd have a single thing to say I could look foward to I could look forward to Not the same kid that a used to be But i still got the same philosophy If growing up is giving in Then count on me to count myself out Yeah! If growing up is giving in Then count on me to count myself out Yeah! Getting sued by my friends Taught me that I can't pretend That i'm immune to the rules of Adulthood I'd rather be a starving artist than a wealthy critic I'd rather be a space cadet than bitter and jaded Brain dead and rewarded for it Like everyone else of my age is Not the same kid that I used to be But I still got the same philosophy! If growing up is giving in Then count on me to count myself out Yeah! If growing up is giving in Then count on me to count myself out Yeah! I'm not the same kid I'm not the same child I might still be a prick But at least i'm not a prick in denial I wake up late just to miss the whole day In this putrid spew that I call my bedroom Putting on clothes just to take them off In a couple of hours, why the fuck do I bother I want to ride this train and hope it never stops I wake up late just to miss the whole day In this putrid spew that I call my bedroom Putting on clothes just to take them off In a couple of hours, why the fuck do I bother I jump in this train and hope it never stops This is all I got This all I want
