Growing Up In Public

歌詞

Ah, mate A wise man once said Just as things start looking up It all goes to shit again Story of my fucking life I'm growing up, growing up, growing up in public Growing up, growing up, growing up in public Growing up, growing up, growing up in public Growing up, growing up, growing up in public They told me to act my age Maybe one day I'll act it But for now I'm going backwards, yeah Lacing up my shoes, buttoning my shirt I don't know why I'm bothering, you can't polish a turd Is my tie straight? I did it and I did it all my way I told you from the get-go It was my way or the high way And I weren't lying then Ain't lying now, never been... lying down It's nothing new to me, the press ain't ever been too nice I ain't surprised, the headline was about the DUI Think to yourself "what would I have done?" Somebody popped my watch and then tried to run We got in a tussle, all the while I had no idea where my wife had gone, plus I'm poignant on Whether he's got a gun or a knife on him Not knowing if her life was in Danger why I tried to hold on to the watch and fight the. Then I heard her scream, so I'm guessing he bought more guys with him Fuck the watch, my priority's Millie now You think what I did was so silly now you've figured it out? Worked out the reason for me getting into the whip Not only is this dickhead who got me kicked And gotten away with my watch, he's gone and gotten me in all of this shit Shame I never caught up to him in the whip, eh? OK, if I'm being logical, in hindsight then probably, it is not a shame that I didn't catch up to the little toerag in the car because that could've ended with me in more trouble than I already am.
