Lyrics
One more song Alright, London This is your last chance to sing And your last chance to dance So let's do this one together One (two) (One, two, three, four) Well, I guess I should confess that I am starting to get old All the latest music fads all passed me by and left me cold All the kids are talking slang I won't pretend to understand All my friends are getting married, mortgages and pension plans And it's obvious my angry adolescent days are done And I'm happy, and I'm settled in the person I've become But that doesn't mean that I'm settled up, sitting out the game Time may change a lot, but some things may stay the same I won't sit down, I won't shut up And most of all I will not grow up I won't sit down, and I won't shut up And most of all I will not grow up Well, maturity's a wrapped up package deal, so it seems Ditching teenage fantasy means ditching all your dreams All your friends and peers and family solemnly tell you you will Have to grow up be an adult yeah be bored and unfulfilled Oh, but no one's yet explained to me exactly what's so great About slaving 50 years away on something that you hate Look, I'm meekly shuffling down the path of mediocrity Well, if that's your road then take it, but it's not the road for me I won't sit down, I won't shut up And most of all I will not grow up I won't sit down, I won't shut up And most of all I will not grow up And if all you ever do with your life Is just photosynthesize Then you deserve every hour of these sleepless nights That you waste wondering when you're gonna die Mr. Benjamin Lloyd on mandocaster Reintroducing Mr. Chris Farren of Fake Problems On the bass, Oxford's very own, Mr. Tarrant Anderson On the keys, on the floor tom, on the cowbell And the backing vocals, and I'm giving him a little kiss Mr. Matthew Nasir On the drums Brain surgeon, astrophysicist, mountain climber, drummer Mr. Nigel Powell So I'll play and you sing The perfect way for the evening to begin Now I'll play and everybody will sing The perfect way for the evening to begin Here we go I won't sit down, I won't shut up And most of all I will not grow up I won't sit down, I won't shut up And most of all I will not grow up And I won't sit down, and I won't shut up And most of all I will not grow up Thank you and goodnight
