Elvis Costello

All Grown Up Songtext / Lyric


Elvis Costello - All Grown Up Songtext


"I'm trouble", she said

Spread out on the floor of her father's house

Her promise was almost undone

Under her tongue, dissolving her responsibilities

To finally deny everyone with every unflattering comparison



All grown up

And you don't care anymore

And you hate all the people that you used to adore

And you despise all the rumors and lies of the life you led before



Did I hear you right? You're feeling hounded and pushed around

You want to just lay down and die

If all of this life has been such a big disappointment to you

Why don't you stop blaming some guy

And go give the next one a try






All grown up

And you don't care anymore

And you hate all the people that you used to adore

And you despise all the rumors and lies of the life you led before



But look at yourself

You'll see you're still so young

You haven't earned the weariness

That sounds so jaded on your tongue



"I'm weak", she says

And blesses herself and gets into bed

Clutching the covers to her throat

So punish me now and let me go back to the sham of my life

This night is the perfect antidote for all of the poison that you wrote



All grown up

And you don't care anymore

And you hate all the people that you used to adore

And you despise all the rumors and lies of the life you led before



But look at yourself

You'll see you're still so young

You haven't earned the weariness

That sounds so jaded on your tongue
