You’re A Big Kid Now
[Intro]
Hey just look at me
I'm a big kid now
[Verse 1]
Tell me, ain’t it funny how you can call me selfish
It truly makes me laugh out loud
Cause the truth is you’re just childish
Can’t believe you cannot see it (haa yeah)
Decisions change lives
Some see it as a game
Some see it as the reality of the way
That moves don’t mean shit you’ve gotta be strategic
But some just choose to take the easy way
Lie, manipulate, everyday
So you can say
[Bridge]
What you want —I really don’t care—
You can call me prudish
Say that I’m stand-off-ish
That I “think I’m the shit”
[Verse 2]
Cause the truth is I’ve noticed a pattern
In the board game we blindly play
And if they don’t win they like to say
I was “a wimp”
Too “buttoned up”
A “cheater”
Now please go ahead and drink from that cup
Cause numbers don’t mean anything
I’m not a sore loser that’s how you grow up —you’re welcome, for the wisdom—
Just stop getting caught up
In blowing up
And one-ing up
And wasting all your bills on a chain that’s fake that you can talk up
I’m done. I'm done
I'm done. I'm done
You’re a big kid now
[Outro]
I can wash my hands and face
I can brush my teeth
Mommy showed me how
I can put away all my toys
It is my turn
I'm a big kid now
