Dont put that thing too close to my head
It took this long just to get ahead, he says
He knows for sure, but that he cant decide
Between his decency and this matter of pride

Weve got the same ideas, we got the same old fears;
Different colors sometimes, but hey, who cares?
Its just years that shears our lives apart, like the
Time you tried to teach your nephew to fart, he couldnt do it. PUSH
So hes growing up on time, Im growing up in the middle...


Oh, now I can really feel it. How could you ever stand it?

And the love that you take.
"Its not a matter of opinion, when it comes down to it,

So Im growing up on time, Im growing up in the middle...


And it burns
