Evan Dando - All My Life

Evan Dando - All My Life

Just look for sunshine
To burn in full time
To be filled with hatred
For the time I've wasted
And I'm so impatient
For a new sensation

God knows what I thought I'd do
I bit my own sweet heart in two

All my life
I thought I needed all the things I didn't need at all
My life I thought I wanted all the things I didn't want at all

Just to hold my heart beat
In a box by my feet
To be filled with glory
To speak a story
Can you feel the thunder
From the cloud I'm under

God knows how will I get through
I bit my own sweet heart and blew it

All my life
I thought I needed all the things I didn't need at all
My life I thought I wanted all the things I didn't want at all
My life I thought I needed all the things I didn't need at all

All my life
I thought I needed all the things I didn't need at all
My life I thought I wanted all the things I didn't want at all
My life I thought I needed all the things I didn't need at all
My life I thought I wanted all the things I didn't want at all

Tom Waits - I Don't Want to Grow Up

Tom Waits - I Don't Want to Grow Up

When I'm lyin' in my bed at night
I don't wanna grow up
Nothin' ever seems to turn out right
I don't wanna grow up
How do you move in a world of fog
That's always changing things
Makes me wish that I could be a dog
When I see the price that you pay
I don't wanna grow up
I don't ever wanna be that way
I don't wanna grow up

Seems like folks turn into things
That they'd never want
The only thing to live for
Is today
I'm gonna put a hole in my TV set
I don't wanna grow up
Open up the medicine chest
And I don't wanna grow up
I don't wanna have to shout it out
I don't want my hair to fall out
I don't wanna be filled with doubt
I don't wanna be a good boy scout
I don't wanna have to learn to count
I don't wanna have the biggest amount
I don't wanna grow up

Well when I see my parents fight
I don't wanna grow up
They all go out and drinking all night
And I don't wanna grow up
I'd rather stay here in my room
Nothin' out there but sad and gloom
I don't wanna live in a big old Tomb
On Grand Street

When I see the 5 o'clock news
I don't wanna grow up
Comb their hair and shine their shoes
I don't wanna grow up
Stay around in my old hometown
I don't wanna put no money down
I don't wanna get me a big old loan
Work them fingers to the bone
I don't wanna float a broom
Fall in and get married then boom
How the hell did I get here so soon
I don't wanna grow up
