sit right down
down in front of me and
let me tell you all about
all of the things
that I want to do
where I want to go
and what I want to be when I grow up
a brilliant hero
compassionately cool
instead I'm selfish, impatient and a fool
she started a crazy chemical reaction in my head
I am numb from how so childish and dumb
I still can be
and I want to grow up to be a man
yeah, I know
what you're thinking though
I may be pushing something that she will regret
but if she's upset
she hasn't shown it yet
and I'm willing now to bet that she'd say yes
I'm her new venture
indentured with finesse
she's there to slap me around
if I regress
she started a crazy chemical reaction in my head
I am numb from how so childish and dumb
I still can be
and I want to grow up to be a man
