We're vaccinated to block out all passionate thought
While we're fascinated living life on such small screens
While motivated to work toward such false securities
But I'm still screaming "No
I won't be what I'm told, What I'm told
Cause I'm not growing up before I grow old
No I'm not growing up before I grow old!"
We'll paint the yellow brick road black
'Cause we know what we want
And there's no turning back
On all of these songs
That move us along
As our youth keeps growing young
We're screaming "No
I won't be what I'm told, What I'm told
Cause I'm not growing up before I grow old
No I'm not growing up before I grow old!"
Cause In our own lives
As the first ones to come
We'll be the last ones to leave
We won't be part of a corporate majority
Cause in our own lives
As the first ones to come
And as the last ones to leave
We won't be growing old
We'll be growing young
We won't be what we're told
Cause we're not growing up before we grow old
We won't be what we're told...
Cause we're not growing up before we grow old
No we're not growing up before we grow old
No we're not growing up before we grow old
No we're not growing up before we grow old
We won't be what we're told, What we're told
Cause we're not growing up before we grow old
We won't be what we're told, What we're told
Cause we're not growing up before we grow old!
No we're not growing up before we grow old
No we're not growing up before we grow old
