Hiro's Song Lyrics - Ben Folds

My name is hiro 

I am fifty one 

Since nineteen eighty 

Life has been no fun 

And I don't want to die 

I left my family for the secretary 

Her name is yuko 

She is twenty two 

She and my daughter 

Were best friends in high school 

They say I'm crazy and it's temporary 

But I refuse to rot 

Like my contemporaries 

I want to explode 

In a karaoke supernova 

I don't want to grow old 

Won't you let me 

Won't you let me explode 

In a karaoke supernova 

Last night she dressed me up 

In hip hop pants 

The phat g-style 

That rides below your ass 

She wants to show me 

To her mom and dad 

I told her 

I would not be down with that 

Cause lately I can feel the years between us 

And hope to god that friends at work don't see us 

Tonight she asked me if I'd ever seen jesus 

Cause she had backstage passes for three of us 

I don't want to grow old 

Won't you let me 

Won't you let me explode 

In a karaoke supernova 

So now she's gone and broke my heart, goddamn her 

Turns out she's been fucking his drum programmer 

She likes his style 

She likes his rock star glamour 

Well, she's an infant 

He can damn well have her 

I don't want to grow old 

Won't you let me 

Won't you let me explode in a karaoke supernova
