[Verse 1]
I'm tired of these new clothes, I want my old stuff back
’Cause my new t-shirts don't fit like that
Can I go back to when I was in seventh grade
Back to the time when my little brother looked up to me
Oh I miss the times without the expectations
When I was still patient talking to my mom
I get less and less excited by my birthday
Oh I think I'm only good at being young
[Chorus]
I don’t wanna grow up
Time's got me on my knees
I don't wanna grow up
And I'm fighting to stay like me
[Verse 2]
My friends don't call me anymore, they say I've changed
But it's my world that's different, I’m still the same
For the first time in a long time, I’m being honest
'Cause I really need to get this off my chest
[Chorus]
I don’t wanna grow up
Time's got me on my knees
I don't wanna grow up
And I'm fighting to stay like me (Like me)
[Bridge]
You don’t see it until it's over
No I don't wanna get any older
'Cause I know, yeah I know that tomorrow it might be gone (Might be)
You don't see it until it's over
No I don't wanna get any older
'Cause I know, yeah I know that tomorrow it'd all be gone (Might be)
[Chorus]
I don't wanna grow up
Time's got me on my knees
I don't wanna grow up
And I'm fighting to stay like me (Like me)
[Outro]
I'm tired of these new clothes, I want my old stuff back
'Cause my new t-shirts don't fit like that
