Johnny Manchild & The Poor Bastards
When You’re Grown
Work baby work, for the weekend
The only place ya know how to be friends
When life makes a joke out of our plans
Our eyes never meet, and you pretend
The constant terror of just existing
Was never something that you bothered facing
Maybe we could be friends
Maybe we could be friends
On the other side
Gilding your pad just to impress
Building your cred with pretenses
You’re pulling bluffs when there is nothing left for you to bet
But maybe someday it ends
Maybe someday it ends
And you’ll realise
You throw a party and a veil on til you can’t see nothing
You make believe until eventually it all works out
Ya play the saviour of the broken while you’re throwing stones
Maybe we could be friends
Maybe we could be friends
Maybe we could be friends
When you’re grown
You throw a party and a veil on til you can’t see nothing
You make believe until eventually it all works out
Ya play the saviour of the broken while you’re throwing stones
But maybe someday it ends
Maybe someday it ends
Maybe we could be friends
When you’re grown
