You want it all right now let’s hurry up and wait Girl you’re right on time trust me you’re not too late     I hate to see you rain those mascara tears But you can drown in the water beyond your years Just don’t grow up so fast You don’t want to know what I know yet Maybe on paper it looks better way up here   Don’t you hurry try to take it slow You will get there before you know it Ain’t just the bad times the good times too shall pass So don’t grow up so fast      The world will turn shadows fall There’s your pencil marks in the corner on the kitchen wall Yeah to remind us all    Just don’t grow up so fast You don’t want to know what I know yet Maybe on paper it looks better way up here   Don’t you hurry try to take it slow You will get there before you know it Ain’t just the bad times the good times too shall pass So don’t grow up so fast ooh                 Just don’t grow up so fast You don’t want to know what I know yet Maybe on paper it looks better way up here   Don’t you hurry try to take it slow We all get there before you know it Ain’t just the bad times the good times too shall pass    There’s only so much sand in the hour glass So don’t grow up so fast ooh
