I Don`t Wanna Grow Up — текст песни (Tom Waits)

When I`m lyin` in my bed at night
I don`t wanna grow up
Nothin` ever seems to turn out right
I don`t wanna grow up
How do you move in a world of fog
That`s always changing things
Makes me wish that I could be a dog
When I see the price that you pay
I don`t wanna grow up
I don`t ever wanna be that way
I don`t wanna grow up

Seems like folks turn into things
That they`d never want
The only thing to live for
Is today
I`m gonna put a hole in my TV set
I don`t wanna grow up
Open up the medicine chest
And I don`t wanna grow up
I don`t wnna have to shout it out
I don`t want my hair to fall out
I don`t wanna be filled with doubt
I don`t wanna be a good boy scout
I don`t wanna have to learn to count
I don`t wanna have the biggest amount
I don`t wanna grow up

Well when I see my parents fight
I don`t wanna grow up
They all go out and drinking all night
And I don`t wanna grow up
I`d rather stay here in my room
Nothin` out there but sad and gloom
I don`t wanna live in a big old Tomb
On Grand Street

When I see the 5 o`clock news
I don`t wanna grow up
Comb their hair and shine their shoes
I don`t wanna grow up
Stay around in my old hometown
I don`t wanna put no money down
I don`t wanna get me a big old loan
Work them fingers to the bone
I don`t wanna float a broom
Fall in and get married then boom
How the hell did I get here so soon
I don`t wanna grow up
