This is a special moment right now
We'd like to take this time to tell all the kids at home
Send your parents out of the room
This is a kid's song

Life's gonna suck when you grow up
When you grow up, when you grow up
Life's gonna suck when you grow up
It sucks pretty bad right now

Hey, if you know the words, sing along

You're gonna have to mow the lawn
Do the dishes, make your bed
You're gonna have to go to school
Until you're seventeen

It's gonna seem about three times as long as that

You might have to go to war
Shoot a gun, kill a nun
You might have to go to war
When you get outta school

Hey, cheer up kids, it gets a lot worse

You're gonna have to deal with stress
Deal with stress, deal with stress
You're gonna be a giant mess
When you get back from the war

Santa Clause does not exist
And there is no Easter Bunny
You'll find out when you grow up
That Big Bird isn't funny
(Funny, funny, ya, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)

Life's gonna suck when you grow up
When you grow up, when you grow up
Life's gonna suck when you grow up
It sucks pretty bad right now

You're gonna wind up smoking crack
On your back, face the fact
You're gonna wind up hooked on smack
And then you're gonna die

And then you're gonna die, hey, hey
