I Won't Grow Up





I won't grow up

I don't wanna go to school

Just to learn to be a puppet

And recite a silly rule



If growing up means it would be

Beneath my dignity to climb a tree

I won't grow up, won't grow up, won't grow up

Not me.



I won't grow up

I don't wanna wear a tie

Or a serious expression

In the middle of July



And if it means that I must prepare

To shoulder burdens with a worried air

I'll never grow up, won't grow up, never grow up

So there



Never gonna be a man

I won't!

Like to see somebody try

And make me!

Anyone who wants to try

And make me turn into a man

Catch me if you can



I won't grow up

I don't wanna wear a tie

Or a serious expression

In the middle of July



Growing up's awfuller than

All the awful things that never been

I won't grow up, won't grow up, won't grow up

Again



Growing up's awfuller than

All the awful things that never been

I won't grow up, never grow up, never grow up

Again

Not me

Not I
