-V1-
I'm asking questions that trouble my soul
Am I looking too deep into the crystal ball
Seeing things that I wish weren't there
Like the grey linnoleum under my wheelchair

-Bridge1-
So wake me up when you put it all right
Stay away and don't trouble my mind
'Cause I don't ever want to grow old
No, I don't want to grow up at all

-Chorus-
I don't ever want to grow old
I won't ever do as I'm told
Ain't nobody 'gonna send me away
It took me to get here and this is where I'll stay

Hey yeah, yeah
Now wouldn't it be nice if we all could be free
Hey yeah, yeah, yeah
Well that is what you'll be if you come with me

-V2-
I'm happy living like all was a joke
Zapping through digestable TV-shows
I'm happy keeping it all on remote
Swimming like a goldfish in my nice clean bowl

-Bridge2-
So wake me up when you've sorted it out
Don't touch me with your gooey doubt
'Cause I don't ever want to grow old
No, I don't want to grow up at all

-Chorus-

-Solo-

-Break-
I don't ever want to grow old
I don't need any watch of gold
I've heard it's happened to my folks back home
Well I ain't going there to rest my bones

I don't ever want to grow old
I won't eat up the food, it's cold
Ain't never gonna buy the things you sell
And I still don't like fish, it smells

----

I don't ever want to grow old
Don't 'wanna end up in a retirement home
Ain't 'gonna buy getting old and sick
I've seen it on TV, it's a TV-trick

I don't ever want to grow old
I won't ever do as I'm told
Ain't nobody 'gonna send me away
It took me to get here and this is where I'll stay

Stay
Where I'll stay
Stay
Hey this is where I'll stay
