about

This song is about teenage rebellion: kinda in an ironic way, kinda in an extremely genuine way. All stated deadpan of course, to make sure no one can tell which parts are which.

lyrics

I’d like to dedicate this song to my twelve year old self: terrified of growing up

I am noisy inside, let me sell a piece of my mind
The part that makes me care, I don’t wanna, don’t wanna care
At all for this
Find a beast and cut him up, I’ll never let him curse my luck
It’s my favourite kind of show and you know I wouldn’t wanna miss
It all for this

Set me loose in a jungle and I’ll go wild
Lock me in this room and I’ll go insane
I’d say it’s the fault of everything around me,
But apparently it’s just my teenage brain

Aaaaaahhh never wanna grow up (x4)

Terrorise the avenue, I got my friends I got my crew
Occupying pavement, living just to make a dent in
Our bucket lists
Mess with her, fight me, I wanna leave a legacy
Truth or dare, cut my hair, I will never play fair
Don’t want to marry, or kiss

Set me loose in a jungle and I’ll go wild
Lock me in this room and I’ll go insane
I’d say it’s the fault of everything around me,
But apparently it’s just my teenage brain

Aaaaaahhh never wanna grow up (x4)
