Theres a kid in my mind who says "Now have a good time"
And the man in my soul makes me behave.
So tell me which do I pick if Im gonna get a kick,
If Im gonna try to have a good time.
I got an angel and a devil looking over my back
and each one is ready to go.
Theres no such thing as a happy medium
if you have any plans to let go.

(chorus)
Im gonna grow up fast in this world alone
and leave behind something to show.
All I need is my friends standing by me to the end
and the drugs are only gonna make me slow.

Theres a million different ways to have fun today
and I hope to God that I never try
crack cocaine or heroin in my vein
Because Ill surely be the junkie runnin dry.
But alcohols another story cause Ive really got a taste
and Ive really had a good ol time
at Montreal at the bars or driving in my car
from San Francisco all the way to Philadelphia

(chorus)

...I got a real close friend who told me something I wont forget
"Youre gonna get the face you deserve."
So Im gonna do my best to kill em with kindness
So I can grow up to be good...

(chorus)
