Yeah, yeah

Get up, get out, move on move on there's no doubt. i'm all wrong, you're right, it's all the same with you.

Don't wanna grow up, i wanna get out. hey. take me away. i wanna shout out take me away away away away away away.

Round and round here we go again, same old start, same old end

Lyrics

Get up, get out
Move 'em, move 'em, there's no doubt
I'm all wrong, you're right
It's all the same with you
I'm too thin, too fat
You ask why
So why, so why?
So why, so why?
On and on
And on and on
On and on
And on and on
Don't wanna grow up
I wanna get out
Hey, take me away
I want to shout out
Take me away, away
Away, away, away
Round and round, here we go again
Same old start, same old end
Turn my head and turn back again
Same old stuff, never ends
Do this, do that
Can't deal, can't deal with that
I tune in, tune out
I've heard it all before
Hello, goodbye
Never asking me why
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye
On and on
And on and on
On and on
And on and on
Don't wanna grow up
I wanna get out
Hey, take me away
I want to shout out
Take me away, away
Away, away, away
Don't wanna grow up
I wanna get out
Hey, take me away
I want to shout out
Take me away, away
Away, away, away
Don't wanna grow up
I wanna get out
Hey, take me away
I want to shout out
Take me away, away
Away, away, away
Round and round, here we go again
Same old story, the same old end
Turn my head and turn back again
Same old stuff, never ends

Cool fact, Jamie Lee Curtis learned guitar for this movie so it would look better.


Different note, Mark Harmon shows up in this movie as the fiance to JLC, then she appears years later on NCIS (season 9) as Gibbs’s love interest
