Playing Grown Up

It’s been weighin’ on my mind
Since I bought that suit and tie
Y’know I feel like it’s a lie
When I walk out the door and
I make a smile
I got a job, got a life, gonna
make it right
Maybe one day I’ll have a
house and a wife
But I never said goodbye
To dreamin’ of the sky

Chorus:
And I’m playing grown up
Making enough
To not be wasting my time
doing things I love
Going slow
So when I get home
I can dream of everything
I’m letting go
Who needs love?
Who needs Life?
I’ll do all my living from
nine ’til five
It’s enough
Playing grown up

Now I wake up at six AM
Day after day, it’ll never end
Now I hardly see my friends
At least I’m not stressed
about paying rent
But when we retire we could
all catch up
Maybe then I’ll stop dreaming
‘bout the buttercups
For now I’ll play pretend
Just wishing it would end

(Chorus)

Its enough
I’m playing grown up
And I could have
a house when
I’m thirty-three
For the low price of all my dreams
Its enough
I’m playing grown up

(Instrumental)

(chorus)

Its enough
I’m playing grown up
Its enough
I’m playing grown up
