lyrics

Wanna buy a car? Wanna buy a boat?
oh the one don't run and the other don't float
I kinda like getting older 'cause I'm never gonna die
I've seen a lot of things that don't look pretty
sometimes I think that life is so shitty
but all it takes to make me smile is a smile from you

I don't wanna work, I just wanna play
I'm not hurting anyone strumming my guitar all day
and in my pajamas I wanna play piana
when I'm in my birthday suit
I wanna play the flute
all I really want ta da is blow my harmonica
I don't wanna work I wanna play, hey hey

All the other kids they went to college
took out loans to certify their knowledge
but you can't pay anyone to tell ya what I know
I sometimes think I'm too in love with myself
but I gotta love someone and there's no one else
who understands the chorus in my head

Somewhere in between all the ups and downs
oh you're stuck standing still or moving around
well, everywhere you go is where you are
So do you wanna buy a car? Wanna buy a boat?
oh the one don't run and the other don't float
I kinda like getting older 'cause I'm never gonna die
