There’s a plastic dwarf warlord
In the cereal box & he’s licking
Off the sugar of the breakfast of chumps
Promise that forever we will
never get better at growing up
and learning to lie
There is no floor 13
there’s not even a second story
You’ve got one to tell
and it’s sad as hell
Promise that forever we will
never get better at growing up
and learning to lie
Prep school kid with wall street glib
Got a suit and a tie and a record with winners
Promise that forever we will
never get better at growing up
and learning to lie
I’m on my way back home now.
Good lives are gold like the oldest story
Will mine be told while I’m still young & horny
I know my role is to be all confusion
Set the clock back, we’re not growing old.
This kid came over and I let him crash
But he went into my wallet and he grabbed my cash
Promise that forever we will
never get better at growing up
and learning to lie
Then a good girlfriend, she turned me in
I was lying with my eyes about adulterous sin.
Promise that forever we will
never get better at growing up
and learning to lie
I’m on my way back home now.
Good lives are gold like the oldest story
Will mine be told while I’m still young & horny
I know my role is to be all confusion
Set the clock back, we’re not growing old
I never wanted to be like you or all the rest
I’ve always been the first one to settle for second best
I never wanted to be
I never wanted to be
I never wanted to be like you
Good lives are gold like the oldest story
Will mine be told while I’m still young & horny
I know my role is to be all confusion
Set the clock back, we’re not growing old
Promise that forever we will
never get better at growing up
and learning to lie (repeat 4x)
Promise it.
