Oh it's hard bein' little in a grown up world
|
I bet shirley temple hated every curl
|
They think our life is easy
|
Like a song that's ligth and breezy
|
It's enough to make you queezy
|
When you know it's tough
|
Bein' little in this mixed up world
|
Life is a riddle that just spins and twirls
|
And we're intimidated
|
When we've merely imitated
|
Sophisticated people that we love
|
If only they'd realize that we're people too
|
We're people who
|
Have problems too
|
But they never look at things from our point of view
|
So what can a little kid do
|
I wish they would let me live my life my way
|
Then they'd see that I just might turn out ok
|
But look I'm not complainin'
|
That's just kids' stuff
|
I'm only explainin'
|
That it's real tough
|
When you're caught in the middle
|
There is no aquittal
|
As long as you're little
|
In a grown up world
|
