Bruce Springsteen – Growin’ Up

Bruce Springsteen – Growin’ Up Lyrics

Artist: Bruce Springsteen
Song: Growin’ Up

Well I stood stone-like 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
Well, the flag of piracy flew from my mast

My sails were set wing to wing
I had a jukebox graduate for a first mate
She couldn’t sail, but she sure could sing
I pushed B-52 and bombed them with the blues

With my gear set stubborn on standing
We broke all the rules, strafed my old high school
Never once gave thought to landing
I stood in the clouded warmth 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 it’s really hard to hold your breath

I lost everything I ever loved or feared
I was the cosmic kid in full costume dress
Well, my feet, they finally took root in the earth
But I got me a nice little place in the stars

And I swear I found the key to the universe
In the engine of an old parked car
I hid in the mother breast of the crowd
But when they said, “Pull down,” I pulled up

Ooh, ooh, growin’ up
