I go to work at seven, get home at eleven
just to hear my wife and kids bitch and bawl
I used to have a lot of friends, but I can't hang with them
'cause all we do is work, then, go home
the bank called and turned me down for a loan
and here it goes

I'm a grownup, and it's really a nightmare
I'm a grownup, and I know that life's not fair
Nobody cares, 'cause I'm all grown in the world
and sad sack teens get all the sympathy

And when I finally go to bed, with an aching back and head
my wife turns her back to me once again
I try to think about the last time, I had sex with my wife
She doesen't even want to get close
I think she wants to leave me here on my own
and here it goes

I'm a grownup, and it's really a nightmare
I'm a grownup, and I know that life's not fair
Nobody cares, 'cause I'm all grown in the world
and sad sack teens get all the sympathy

What the hell is wrong with teens, and their little pity partys
Wait til they get like me
Wide awake and worried 'bout bills and lost dreams
this is the real life, and it lasts forever

I'm a grownup
I'm a grownup
I'm a grownup
I'm a grownup
I'm a grownup

I'm a grownup, and it's really a nightmare
I'm a grownup, and I know that life's not fair
Nobody cares, 'cause I'm all grown, in this world
they all wanna be grown and get into the world


But I'm a grownup, and it's really a nightmare
I'm a grownup, and I know that life's not fair
Nobody cares, 'cause I'm all grown in the world
Nobody cares, when you're all grown in the world
Nobody cares, you bitch about your world, but I bet you're having more fun than me
tonight

'cause I'm a grownup tonight
nobody cares 'bout my life
so, be glad you're a kid tonight
