Growing Pains Songtext
Another birthday, too many to count
At my age, dad was finished with college and I just dropped out
Guess I caught the slow train, is it heading south?
At my age, mom had already had me, but I'm so far from starting a family
No plan
But what's wrong with that?
'Cause all my friends are growing up
They're moving on while I'm still looking back
Like what's the catch?
'Cause I'm too scared to fall in love
In case I fall apart like mum and dad
Since when was life a race?
I guess that's growing pains
Think I'm afraid of change
But I can't stay the same
I guess that's growing pains
Another wedding and I don't even have a date
Since when did we need an excuse to get drunk on a Monday?
Am I taking it steady or did miss the race? Mm
'Cause my best friend is having a baby
Man, since when isn't that fucking crazy
No plan
But what's wrong with that?
'Cause all my friends are growing up
They're moving on while I'm still looking back
Like what's the catch?
'Cause I'm too scared to fall in love
In case I fall apart like mum and dad
Since when was life a race?
I guess that's growing pains (Mm, mm)
(Mm, mm)
Think I'm afraid of change
But I can't stay the same
I guess that's growing pains
At my age, dad was finished with college and I just dropped out
Guess I caught the slow train, is it heading south?
At my age, mom had already had me, but I'm so far from starting a family
No plan
But what's wrong with that?
'Cause all my friends are growing up
They're moving on while I'm still looking back
Like what's the catch?
'Cause I'm too scared to fall in love
In case I fall apart like mum and dad
Since when was life a race?
I guess that's growing pains
Think I'm afraid of change
But I can't stay the same
I guess that's growing pains
Another wedding and I don't even have a date
