"Wanna Wanna" lyrics - MARTHA WAINWRIGHT

MARTHA WAINWRIGHT
"Wanna Wanna"

Do you wanna wanna wanna grow up to be
The kind you only wanna shut up
And if time runs through your veins
And causes you nothing but pain

You're just like the rest of us
You're just like the rest of us
You're just like the rest of us
You're just like the rest of us

My mama told me to get to bed
To get my beauty sleep
But one day you get up
And there's nothing left of your week

Just like the rest of us
Just like the rest of us
Just like the rest of us
Just like the rest of us

Time goes by & then you realize
Doesn't matter who you're crying for
It's all just a big surprise
And you're left outside the door
And you're left outside the door

Do you wanna wanna wanna know why
I ain't ever gonna die
'Cause I'm too young to think about it
And too old not to try

Not like you
Not like you
Not like you
Not like you

Time goes by & then you realize
Doesn't matter who you're crying for
It's all just a big surprise
And you're left outside the door
