Calvin Snape - Don't Wanna Wait Lyrics

When you were young you thought the whole world was at your feet
You thought life would be so easy
Now you're older you can see the world is mean
And the people are so sleazy
But it's not always doom and gloom in this f*cked up world
You've got the time do what you need
Before you're old and grey and think of what could have been
Think of all the times you succeed

I don't wanna wait for my hair to fall out when I go bald
I don't wanna wait to get fat and my gut to touch the floor
I don't wanna wait in a house that is always so damn cold
I don't wanna wait to grow up cause I'm sick of getting old

Back then you always messed around, always played the fool
You know they hate an overachiever
They say nobody likes you when you're 23
Well they don't at 30 either!
From the moment that you're born to the day that you die
You know you're never gonna make it
So with nothing to gain and nothing to lose
Then you know you might as well fake it!

I don't wanna wait for my hair to fall out when I go bald
I don't wanna wait to get fat and my gut to touch the floor
I don't wanna wait in a house that is always so damn cold
I don't wanna wait to grow up cause I'm sick of getting old

Just know it's not the way your life has to carry on
You'll be the keeper of your own fate
What you get in life you'll never get for free
You gotta work before it's too late
You can work for what you want or just take what comes
I'm gonna be the best I can be
So go out and do the best that you know you can
Before it catches both you and me

I don't wanna wait for my hair to fall out when I go bald
I don't wanna wait to get fat and my gut to touch the floor
I don't wanna wait in a house that is always so damn cold
I don't wanna wait to grow up cause I'm sick of getting old

I don't wanna wait around to die, I wanna live my life
I don't wanna wait to have a kid and find the perfect wife
I don't wanna wait around in here and do just what I'm told
I don't wanna wait to grow up cause I'm sick of getting old
