Had To Grow Up Lyrics - Bigger Than Me - Aselin Debison

Another day late for the bus again 

A single mom just trying to make ends meet 

Go to work, be on time, get out of the grocery line 

Before the kids get home 

Everybody's in a hurry 

Totally stressed out and worried 

If only she could turn back time to when 

She remembers 

Being 13 

Sleeping in till 11:30 

Dressing up in her mamma's jewellery 

But she had to grow up, yeah we gotta grow up 

Summer seemed to last forever 

Parents always stayed together 

Nothing matters, yeah whatever 

But she had to grow up, yeah we gotta grow up 

Sometime 

A grey haired man in a pinstripe suit 

His last report long overdue 

He pulled up to his parking spot, found 

Someone took his job 

Now what's he gonna' do? 

Everybody's in a hurry 

Totally stressed out and worried 

If only he could turn back time to when 

He remembers being 16 

Quarterback of the old football team 

Almost married the high school prom queen 

But he had to grow up, yeah we gotta grow up 

Learned to drive on all the side streets 

Bent the rules like they meant nothing 

Stayed out late till the early morning 

But he had to grow up, yeah we gotta grow up 

Sometime x4 

Maybe I am only 14 

Maybe someday I'll be prom queen 

Drive myself to where I should be 

But that's when I grow up, yeah that's when I grow up 

But for now I'll drive my mamma crazy 

Spin around till I get dizzy 

Sleeping in till 11:30 

But I'll have to grow up, yeah I gotta grow up sometime
