:: i don't wanna


musica/letra: tom waits "i don't wanna grow up" bone machine
video: jim jarmusch

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 wanna 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 love and get married then boom
how the hell did i get here so soon
i don't wanna grow up
