Laurie Geltman growing down

Select language to translate this lyric

Hey kids heads up now
You don’t know what might fall
And who do you trust?
Everyone stands tall
But in the back room
They bend ‘til they see something crawl
Gather pictures of friends you’ll never know
Gather lovers in droves in case one goes
And if you find out
Your country’s insane
Or stuck in the mud
We could change our name
It’s like we read the other day
All our heroes are dead and anyway
If we dug real deep
We’d find some story to tell…
Are you growing down like a beard to the floor?
Wasting time like paper ‘cause there’s always more
Are you grabbing that horse up by the reins
Or watching the race from the grandstand?
Are you growing down? (lie-lie-lie-lie-lie)
Are you growing down? (lie-lie-lie-lie-lie)
And I don’t blame you
For the sadness in your eyes
But don’t you think it’s time to try?
Growing down like a beard to the floor?
Wasting time like paper ‘cause there’s always more
Are you grabbing that horse up by the reins
Or watching the race from the grandstand?
Sorry kids but your urges have a price
There’s a killer out there and you’re sick of advice
Say what’s that you feel?
Sometimes you don’t want to think twice
Are you growing down? (lie-lie-lie-lie-lie)
Are you growing down? (lie-lie-lie-lie-lie)
Are you growing down?
Are you growing down?
