You're sixteen going thirty-two
Confusion of angst surrounding you
Cigarette dangles from your painted lip
You wear the shoe because it fits
Put on your sneakers and be a kid
Why don't you try and have some fun?
Put on your sneakers and be a kid
You're not fooling anyone
Why you wanna grow so old so fast?
Let your teenage ignorance last
Put away all those rings and chains
Come back and enjoy the growing pain
Put on your sneakers and be a kid
Why don't you try and have some fun?
Put on your sneakers and be a kid
You're not fooling anyone
When I saw you the other day
You saw me and then turned away
Why didn't you acknowledge me?
Was it cause your date was thirty-three?
Put on your sneakers and be a kid
Why don't you try and have some fun?
Put on your sneakers and be a kid
You're not fooling anyone
