I Won't Grow Up - Live
And I said I won't grow up
I don't wanna go to school
Just to learn to be a puppet
And recite a silly rule
'Cause growing up is awfuller than
All the awful things I have, have been now
I won't grow up, won't grow up, won't grow up
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 won't grow up, won't grow up, won't 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
Then here I am
'Cause I won't grow up
I don't wanna wear a tie
And a serious expression
Start to act like a guy
Because growing up is just awfuller than
All of the awful things you never been
Don't grow up, don't grow up, don't grow up
Again
'Cause, growing up, is awfuller than
All of the awful things I have never been like
I won't grow up, won't grow up, won't grow up
Again
Not me
Not I

Thank you everybody
I don't wanna go to school
Just to learn to be a puppet
And recite a silly rule
'Cause growing up is awfuller than
All the awful things I have, have been now
I won't grow up, won't grow up, won't grow up
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 won't grow up, won't grow up, won't 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
Then here I am
'Cause I won't grow up
I don't wanna wear a tie
And a serious expression
Start to act like a guy
Because growing up is just awfuller than
All of the awful things you never been
Don't grow up, don't grow up, don't grow up
Again
'Cause, growing up, is awfuller than
All of the awful things I have never been like
I won't grow up, won't grow up, won't grow up
