"Let's Be Grown Ups Now" lyrics

"Let's Be Grown Ups Now"

Old guide of a dream
Saw the world was changing
Old wheels of the game
No more
No way to control
Your mind's rearranging
Just won't take it
Let's go baking

Are we really gonna go to war?
Once more, what for
Come on boys, put your toys away
Turn to end this rout
Let's be grown-ups now

We've seen it before
Big shot in the schoolyard
No way you're gonna win today
You wanna play friend
That's not gonna happen
Just can't take it
Watch me break it

Are we really gonna go to war?
Once more, what for
Come on boys, put your toys away
Time to end this rout
Let's be grown-ups now

Crazy to ignore
The lessons of history
Bring back the past
No, that's just your fantasy

Only fools wanna go to war
What for, no more
Come on boys, put your toys away
Time to end this rout
I can show you how
Let's be grown-ups now
Time to end this rout

Hey, that's right, you got to fight
Come on, the who one's watching you tonight
Let's be grown ups now
Do what's right, turn on the rain
Come on, the whole world's watching you tonight
I can show you how
You got the light, yeah you got the love
Come on boy, we're watching you tonight
Let's be grown ups now
