So this is all you've ever wanted to achieve?
A house, a job, a bitchin' wife - someone has to make a sacrifice!
To become a philistine, a total douchebag who keeps his garden perfectly clean?
Grow up! - Grow old! - All your life you have been told
Grow up! - Grow cold! - the same old stories
Grow up! - Grow old! - we all have to prevail
Grow up! - Grow cold! - follow the rules and you won't fail!
You should have listened to Peter Pan long ago and now you've turned into Captain Hook
When you wake up at night you feel this emptiness inside - this void that eats you alive
Secretly longing for a place you've been before your private Neverland's so far away
And now you're trapped here to stay
Day in day out living life to the extreme
9 to 5 in an office cube - you say you love your daily routine
Back at home the drinks will numb your "grown-up" mind you beat your wife and kids again
Adulthood has made you blind
Grow up! - Grow old! - All your life you have been told
Grow up! - Grow cold! - the same old stories
Grow up! - Grow old! - we all have to prevail
Grow up! - Grow cold! - follow the rules and you won't fail!
You should have listened to Peter Pan long ago - now you've turned into Captain Hook
When you wake up at night you feel this emptiness inside - this void that eats you alive
Secretly longing for a place you've been before your private Neverland's so far away
And now you're trapped here to stay
You should have listened to Peter Pan long ago and now you've turned into Captain Hook
When you wake up at night you feel this emptiness inside - this void that eats you alive
Secretly longing for a place you've been before your private Neverland's so far away
And now you're trapped here to stay
