Grow Up

Matt Mahaffey

[Verse 1]
I know I'm not a doctor yet
I know I'm glued to the TV set
And I plan on working out a bunch and taking painting up
I cannot for the life of me
Figure out what you want me to be
So I've counterfeited destiny for the two of us to end up

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Are you an ordinary girl?
Are you lost in the woods?
Is your ordinary life turning out like it should?

[Chorus]
Gonna feel it when it all goes down
Are you home right now?
Come on, hello, pick up
Gonna feel it when I hit the ground
We'll paint this town
As soon as I grow up

[Verse 2]
All I get are recorded tones when I call you on the telephone
It says, "I'll call the police if you don't leave me alone"
I don't know what I've done
And I cannot for the life of me, I've studied Sex in the City
I can't figure out what you want me to be
Besides smart, tough, and handsome

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Are you even of this world?
Are you lost in the woods?
Is your ordinary life turning out like it should?

[Chorus]
Gonna feel it when it all goes down
Are you home right now?
Come on, hello, pick up
Gonna feel it when I hit the ground
We'll paint this town
As soon as I grow up

[Break]

[Chorus]
Gonna feel it when it all goes down
Are you home right now?
Come on, hello, pick up
Gonna feel it when I hit the ground
We'll paint this town
As soon as I grow up

Gonna feel it when it all goes down
Are you home right now?
Come on, hello, pick up
Gonna feel it when I hit the ground
We'll paint this town
As soon as I grow up

[Outro]
Come on, hello, pick up
As soon as I grow up
