(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 whats 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 innocence 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 whats 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 whats 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 whats 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
