(I don't understand you sometimes, I swear you are so smart,
|
You could do anything, But one of these days, You're gonna have to grow up)
|
|
It's kind of funny how
|
We admire maturity
|
And burning ourselves
|
With so much guilt and worry
|
Si with simplicity
|
With age we forget it
|
And the children we ridicule
|
Cause they still get it
|
|
And where did the easy times go
|
Do you feel better now that you know
|
|
And whats so great
|
At the end of the day please tell me
|
Of being grown
|
And everything that comes along with it
|
Ignorance is bliss
|
Tell me what would you miss
|
About maturity
|
|
(I've got plans for myself, I'm grown now,
|
You know we're not getting any younger)
|
|
It's inevitable
|
The loss of innocence
|
Into reality
|
Been like this ever since
|
The apple tasted
|
Followed by bitter tense
|
We didn't use to know
|
What any of these other words meant
|
|
And where did the easy times go
|
|
Do you feel better now that you know
|
|
And whats so great
|
At the end of the day please tell me
|
Of being grown
|
And everything that comes along with it
|
Ignorance is bliss
|
Tell me what would you miss
|
About maturity
|
|
I never would've thought the way we were
|
Is now how we want to be
|
Never could've told me back then
|
Just how we would love
|
Without a care in the world
|
|
And whats so great
|
At the end of the day please tell me
|
Of being grown
|
And everything that comes along with it
|
Ignorance is bliss
|
Tell me what would you miss
|
About maturity
|
|
And whats so great
|
At the end of the day please tell me
|
Of being grown
|
And everything that comes along with it
|
Ignorance is bliss
|
Tell me what would you miss
|
About maturity
