3.Growin' Up
Lyrics：Bruce Springsteen
Music：Bruce Springsteen
I stood stone-like at midnight suspended in my masquerade
I combed my hair till it was just right and commanded the night
brigade
I was open to pain and crossed by the rain and I walked on a
crooked crutch
I strolled all alone through a fallout zone and came out with my
soul untouched
I hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd but when they said 'Sit
down' I stood up.
Ooh-ooh growin' up
The flag of piracy flew from my mast, my sails were set wing to
wing
I had a jukebox graduate for first mate, she couldn't sail but
she sure could sing,
I pushed B-52 and bombed 'em with the blues with my gear set
stubborn on standing
I broke all the rules, strafed my old high school, never once
gave thought to landing,
I hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd but when they said 'Come
down' I threw up
Ooh-ooh growin' up
I took month-long vacations in the stratosphere and you know
it's really hard to hold your breath.
I swear I lost everything I ever loved or feared, I was the
cosmic kid in full costume dress
Well, my feet they finally took root in the earth but I got me a
nice little place in the stars
And I swear I found the key to the universe in the engine of an
old parked car
I hid in the mother breast of the crowd but when they said 'Pull
down' I pulled up
Ooh-ooh growin' up. Ooh-ooh growin' up
