"Beautiful Scum" lyrics

Always on the run
Your one and only son
Too smart just to tag along
Too dumb to be of use
Always chasing cars
And a better life on Mars
Reaching for the stars
While counting every bruise

So you send money everyday
A clichéd dream just doesn't pay
And no matter how hard I play
Neverland never seemed so far away
You send money everyday
Because I never got it made
And no matter how hard I play
Neverland never seemed so far away

A self-made Peter Pan
Burdened by the shadow of a man
More a hook each passing day
As I claw my way with a pencil blade

You got to grow up (Oh no!)
You got to grow up (Oh oh no!)
You got to grow up (Oh no! no!)
You got to grow up (no! no! no!)

You send money everyday
A clichéd dream just doesn't pay
And no matter how hard I play
Neverland never seemed so far away
You send money everyday
Because I never got it made
And no matter how hard I play
Neverland never seemed so far away

You got to grow up (Oh no!)
You got to grow up (Oh oh no!)
You got to grow up (Oh no! no!)
You got to grow up (no! no! no!)

So you send money everyday
A clichéd dream just doesn't pay
And no matter how hard I play
Neverland never seemed so far away
You send money everyday
Because I never got it made
And no matter how hard I play
Neverland never seemed so far away

You send money everyday
A clichéd dream just doesn't pay
And no matter how hard I play
Neverland never seemed so far away
You send money everyday
Because I never got it made
And no matter how hard I play
Neverland never seemed so far away
