(I don't understand you sometimes
I swear you are so smart
You could do anything
But one of these days
You're gonna have to grow up)
It's kind of funny how
We admire maturity
And burning ourselves
With so much guilt and worry
Si with simplicity
With age we forget it
And the children we ridicule
Cause they still get it
And where did the easy times go
Do you feel better now that you know
And what's so great
At the end of the day please tell me
Of being grown
And everything that comes along with it
Ignorance is bliss
Tell me what would you miss
About maturity
(I've got plans for myself
I'm grown now
You know we're not getting any younger)
It's inevitable
The loss of innocense
Into reality
Been like this ever since
The apple tasted
Followed by bitter tense
We didn't use to know
What any of these other words meant
And where did the easy times go
Do you feel better now that you know
And what's so great
At the end of the day please tell me
Of being grown
And everything that comes along with it
Ignorance is bliss
Tell me what would you miss
About maturity
I never would've thought the way we were
Is now how we want to be
Never could've told me back then
Just how we would love
Without a care in the world
And what's so great
At the end of the day please tell me
Of being grown
And everything that comes along with it
Ignorance is bliss
Tell me what would you miss
About maturity
And what's so great
At the end of the day please tell me
Of being grown
And everything that comes along with it
Ignorance is bliss
Tell me what would you miss
About maturity
