Lyrics for GROWIN UP by Bruce Springsteen:
| | | Artist: | Bruce Springsteen |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | GROWIN UP | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 242 | | | | Lyrics: | I stood stone-like at midnight suspended in my masquerade
I combed my hair till it was just
right and commanded the night brigade
I was open to pain and crossed by the rain and I walked on
a crooked crutch
I strolled all alone through a fallout zone and came out with my soul
untouched
I hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd but when they said "Sit down" I stood
up.
Ooh-ooh growin' up
The flag of piracy flew from my mast, my sails were set wing to
wing
I had a jukebox graduate for first mate, she couldn't sail but she sure could sing,
I
pushed B-52 and bombed `em with the blues with my gear set stubborn on standing
I broke all the
rules, strafed my old high school, never once gave thought to landing,
I hid in the clouded
wrath of the crowd but when they said "Come down" I threw up
Ooh-ooh growin' up
I took
month-long vacations in the stratosphere and you know it's really hard to hold your breath.
I
swear I lost everything I ever loved or feared, I was the cosmic kid in full costume dress
Well,
my feet they finally took root in the earth but I got me a nice little place in the stars
And I
swear I found the key to the universe in the engine of an old parked car
I hid in the mother
breast of the crowd but when they said "Pull down" I pulled up
Ooh-ooh growin' up. Ooh-ooh
