There's a plastic dwarf warlord

In the cereal box & he's licking

Off the sugar of the breakfast of chumps



Promise that forever we will 

never get better at growing up 

and learning to lie



There is no floor 13 

there's not even a second story

You've got one to tell 

and it's sad as hell



Promise that forever we will 

never get better at growing up 

and learning to lie



Prep school kid with wall street glib

Got a suit and a tie and a record with winners



Promise that forever we will 

never get better at growing up 

and learning to lie



I'm on my way back home now.



Good lives are gold like the oldest story

Will mine be told while I'm still young & horny

I know my role is to be all confusion

Set the clock back, we're not growing old.



This kid came over and I let him crash

But he went into my wallet and he grabbed my cash



Promise that forever we will 

never get better at growing up 

and learning to lie



Then a good girlfriend, she turned me in

I was lying with my eyes about adulterous sin.



Promise that forever we will 

never get better at growing up 

and learning to lie



I'm on my way back home now.



Good lives are gold like the oldest story

Will mine be told while I'm still young & horny

I know my role is to be all confusion

Set the clock back, we're not growing old



I never wanted to be like you or all the rest

I've always been the first one to settle for second best

I never wanted to be

I never wanted to be

I never wanted to be like you



Good lives are gold like the oldest story

Will mine be told while I'm still young & horny

I know my role is to be all confusion

Set the clock back, we're not growing old



Promise that forever we will 

never get better at growing up 

and learning to lie (repeat 4x)

Promise it.
