Bruce Springsteen - Growin Up текст песни

I stood stonelike 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 couldnt 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 its really hard to hold your breath

I swear I lost everything I ever loved or feared I was the cosmic kid

Well my feet they finally took root in the earth but I got me a nice little place in the stars

I swear I found the key to the universe in the engine of an old parked car

I hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd but when they said`sit downi stood up

Ooh-ooh growin up

Ooh-ooh growin up
