Never Grow Up

Some people really never grow up

Even if I never really grew up

It’s so easy for me to look down on you, you know

 

I couldn’t function these past few days

And the second my body decides to make

Up for it, you take away

My short respite from pain

 

I’m sick of answering questions

About things that you did

Cleaning up after your dinner

When I haven’t had breakfast

 

And why are the light bulbs burned out

Why haven’t I changed them

Sure, your car is nice but I can’t

Bring myself to ask for favors

 

You’re just a big kid

And you’re never gonna grow up

 

I have no clue where to start correcting

Even if we talk it out

You make me angry with every word out of your mouth, you know

 

I make myself available and helpful

My mother taught me well

I never needed your approval

But your ingratitude is painful as hell

 

I’ve been so busy these past few days

While you’ve been in your room playing games

Don’t compare me to your ways

You are actually lazy, for god’s sake

 

I’m sick of answering questions

About things that you did

Cleaning up after your dinner

When I haven’t had breakfast

 

And why are the light bulbs burned out

Why haven’t I changed them

Sure, your car is nice but I can’t

Bring myself to ask for favors

 

You’re just a big kid

And you’re never gonna grow up

 

I have two jobs

And neither of them pay

You’re rich but

Can’t pick up a plate?

 

You’ll never know what you have until it’s too late

Is something I can never say

 

I’m sick of answering questions

About things that you did

Cleaning up after your dinner

When I haven’t had breakfast

 

And why are the light bulbs burned out

Why haven’t I changed them

Sure, your car is nice but I can’t

Bring myself to ask for favors

 

You’re just a big kid

And you’re never gonna grow up

 

I’m sick of hearing complaints about

Dumb things that you did

Even if I make dessert for everyone

You say I’m the one to fix?

 

When’s the last time you did anything for yourself

I don’t know where your nice shirt is!

Sure, I like the rides but I can’t

Stand you, you old big kid

 

You old big kid

You’re never gonna grow up
