GROWIN' UP TOO FAST vocal Ronnie Kimball (verse) My pint-sized ten year old and me Were flippin' channels on TV Came across a show I watched when I was young Boys in ties and girls in skirts Mothers who didn't go to work It was like another planet to my son. (prechorus) He left for his computer To play his bloody games And chat on there with God-knows-who, some folks with faceless names (chorus) These days they're just growin' up too fast MTV and ecstacy and families that don't last I used to get my mouth washed out For the language on their shirts And parents say just let 'em be There's no one gettin' hurt We need to ease our feet up on the gas 'Cause these days they're just growin' up too fast. (verse) My little neice is just thirteen An age my wife was in between Her Barbie dolls and wantin' to shave her legs She's wearin' shadow on her eyes Dressin' up for high school guys And in Phys Ed she's learning safer sex (prechorus) She looks like she's a woman But she is still a child Can't we just let them keep their innocence a while? (repeat chorus) (tag) Let's gear it down from firth to second That'll get it done, I reckon They're just growin' up too fast. Bill Osofsky, BMI, Shelia Quattlebaum, BMI copyright
