Good Kids Make Bad Grown Ups |
| They say that part of growing up is |
| Getting a job |
| Well, I don’t wanna grow up |
| They say part of being young is |
| Going to school |
| Well, I’d rather throw up |
| They used to say I was a good kid |
| Now I’m a good kid |
| Did that by staying in school |
| But now they say that I’m a dumb man |
| 'Cause I’m a good kid |
| Don’t you understand? |
| They say part of being grown is |
| Having your way |
| I guess I’ll be a grown up today |
| They also say that the key to being grown |
| Is staying young |
| I don’t wanna grow up |
| They say that young boys got it easy |
| Just try to please me, |
| And you can get your way |
| But I won’t be nobody’s baby. |
| 'Cause I’m so lazy, |
| And I happen to be me |
| Won’t you believe |
| The terrors deep inside won’t come out |
| They should have told met hat being so good |
| Would make me so bad |
| But nobody knew, no |
| Growing up is not as half as fun as |
| Growing down |
| The other way I’m… |
| (Under the ground, |
| under the ground, oh) |
| They used to say I was a bad kid |
| I’m glad that they did |
| Now I play all the time |
| Now people say I grew up early |
| I better hurry |
| 'Cause good kids make bad grown ups |
| And part of the artistic process is going berserk |
| But I don’t wanna blow up |
| They say that part of growing up is getting a job |
| I don’t wanna grow up! |
| They used to say I was a bad kid |
| I’m glad that they did |
| Now I can play all the time |
| Now people say I grew up early |
| I better hurry |
| 'Cause good kids — |
| Won’t you believe |
| We’ll help you in the night |
| 'Til we come home |
| Won’t you conceive |
| We’ll find you when you’re home, |
| Just out of reach |
