Grow Up
Mustard Plug Lyrics

When I was just a little boy, I'd sit around all day. Thinking about The future to pass the time of day.
As a child, I spent my free time daydreaming about my future because it was a way to entertain myself.

With my friends sittin' laughin', They would mainly laugh at me, because I was always different, it was All so plain to see.
My friends used to make fun of me because I didn't fit in with them and they found that amusing.

Didn't want to be a fireman, a cowboy, or a cop. I Was always different like a sore thumb I stuck out. Because even in My dreams I won't pretend to age, I knew a life of normacy was nothing But a cage.
I never wanted to have a typical job or do what everyone else was doing. Even in my dreams, I couldn't picture myself growing old and having a boring, ordinary life because I knew it would feel like a prison.

When I grow up, I don't want to be like you!
As I get older, I don't want to end up like the people who made fun of me for being different. I don't want a life that's boring and ordinary like theirs.

To be a barbarian would be a lot of fun. Sit around, eat raw meat in The mid day sun. I'd dance around the fire, like a madman I would Yell, I'd smell a bit I'd fart a lot, I'd cut class and I'd belch.
It seems like it would be really exciting to live like a barbarian. Eating raw meat, dancing and shouting around a fire, and not being concerned about behaving in a civilized way.

I'd Sack the Roman Empire and do with a grin. I'd set the cities all Ablaze...do it on a whim. And people would shriek as I was coming into Town, because I'd bring my minotaur to help me fry it down.
If I had the opportunity, I'd enjoy causing chaos and destruction by taking down the Roman Empire. People would be terrified of me and my Minotaur sidekick.

When I grow up, I want something fun to do. I don't know much, but This much I know is true..when life is short, I Don't want to be like You!
As I grow up, what matters most to me is having fun and not being confined to a typical, boring existence. I don't want to turn out like the people who made fun of me for being different.

When I grow up I think I want to be white trash living in a trailer Park and sitting on my ass. I'd beat my wife, I'd kiss my kiss, I'd Pass out in the lawn. I'd steal my brewskies from my mom and often Kick my dog. I'd go to work an hour later, bitch about my boss.
As a contrast to a typical, boring life, I might enjoy being white trash and not conforming to societal norms. This involves behaving badly and not taking responsibility for anything, even abusing those closest to me.

And every Friday night I think I'd bowl a round or two, because Standing watching monster trucks is just the thing to do!!
My idea of a good time as someone who doesn't want a boring life would be something like bowling or watching monster trucks on a Friday night, even if others might find that unappealing.
