Lyrics When You're Grown - Johnny Manchild and the Poor Bastards

Work baby work, for the weekend
The only place you know how to be friends
When life makes a joke out of our plans
Our eyes never meet, and you pretend
The constant terror of just existing
Was never something that you bothered facing

And maybe we could be friends
Maybe we could be friends
On the other side

Gilding your pad just to impress
Building your cred with pretenses
You're pulling bluffs when there is nothing left for you to bet

But maybe someday it ends
Maybe someday it ends
And you'll realise

You throw a party and a veil on til you can't see nothing
You make believe until eventually it all works out
You play the saviour of the broken while you're throwing stones
And maybe we could be friends
Maybe we could be friends
Oh, maybe we could be friends
When you're grown

You throw a party and a veil on til you can't see nothing
You make believe until eventually it all works out
You play the saviour of the broken while you're throwing stones
But maybe someday it ends
Maybe someday it ends
Oh. maybe we could be friends
When you're grown
