WHEN I GROW UP TO BE A MAN

(Brian Wilson)

 

When I grow up to be a man

 

Will I dig the same things that turn me on as a kid?

Will I look back and say that I wish I hadn’t done what I did?

Will I joke around and still dig those sounds?

When I grow up to be a man

 

Will I look for the same things in a woman that I dig in a girl?

Will I settle down fast or will I first wanna travel the world?

Now I’m young and free, but how will it be?

When I grow up to be a man

 

Will my kids be proud or think their old man is really a square?

When they’re out having fun yeah, will I still wanna have my share?

Will I love my wife for the rest of my life?

When I grow up to be a man

 

What will I be?

When I grow up to be a man?

 

Won’t last forever

It’s kind of sad

Won’t last forever

It’s kind of sad

 

Oh, no

It’s kinda sad

Won’t last forever
