song lyrics Growin Up lyrics
I stood stonelike at midnight suspended in my masquerade I combed my hair till it was just right and commanded the night brigade I was open to pain and crossed by the rain and I walked on a crooked crutch I strolled all alone through a fallout zone and came out with my soul untouchedI hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd but when they said "Sit down" I stood upOoh-ooh growin up The flag of piracy flew from my mast my sails were set wing to wing I had a jukebox graduate for first mate she couldn t sail but she sure could sing I pushed B-52 and bombed em with the blues with my gear set stubborn on standing I broke all the rules strafed my old high school never once gave thought to landing I hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd but when they said "Come down" I threw upOoh-ooh growin up I took month-long vacations in the stratosphere and you know it s really hard to hold your breath I swear I lost everything I ever loved or feared I was the cosmic kid Well my feet they finally took root in the earth but I got me a nice little place in the stars I swear I found the key to the universe in the engine of an old parked car I hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd but when they said "Sit down" I stood upOoh-ooh growin upOoh-ooh growin up song lyrics
