Grow Up (Radio Edit) Lyrics

Grow up

One would say you're of an age

To behave more maturely at this stage

Perhaps some pain in you has never healed

And, every time you part your lips

It lies there revealed

Listening around corners, strained in vain

But if your ear were meant here

You would hear your name

Interrupting like a spoiled kid

You can't help but to

Butt your uninvited comments in

It's time to grow up

The world's not going to slow up

And no one's going to put up

With childishness and carelessness for long

Do more and just grow up

Clean your house and nose up

For no one's going to show up

And pay your way and carry you along

You've got to do it for yourself

You've got to do it for yourself

You must give thought to others' feelings, too

For what you hate in them

You really simply hate in you

Apologize

All faults will be recalled

The choices of one will affect the futures of all

Pick up your trash

No one will clean for you

Watch your own back and always

Make to guard yourself for true

Press your edge and become something more

And if you wish for peace

You must be prepared for war

It's time to grow up

The world's not going to slow up

They're laughing when you give up

Start making haste with sturdiness and speed

Do more than just show up

Raise your chin and own up

Push to get what you want

You're going to have to fight for what you need

You've got to do it for yourself

You've got to do it for yourself

Grow up
