[Verse 1]
I'll never sleep with you again
I don't want you broke over me
If you're playing with the dealer's rent
You can't be living completely

And even though it's only you
That brings me way down low
I still get terribly sick
When I see the place you're gonna go

[Chorus]
I'm not pulling out your shark tooth
You got stuck up in the first place
And now you're swimming, ain't you, baby?
You keep blaming me for settling
I'm feeling good
It's time to stop pointing fingers
It's time to buck up, Billy, be a man

[Verse 2]
You said, you used it all up in your youth
Don't you blame it on the dinosaurs
It wasn't them who knocked the sense out of you
Blame it on freedom, space, and open doors
And now your mother's gonna be so sad
She only wants you to do good
And your father's gonna kick your ass
You deserve it, I think he should

[Chorus]
I'm not pulling out your shark tooth
You got stuck up in the first place
And now you're swimming, ain't you, baby?
You keep blaming me for settling
I'm feeling good
It's time to stop pointing fingers
It's time to buck up, Billy, be a man

[Bridge]

[Outro]
Billy, you were brought up to
Batter me then bring me home
It's time for you to punch the clock
It's time for you to be grown
