lyrics

How could it be I'm so young yet so much older than I should be?
Talk about your would be plans.
What would I say if I was asked to name the wonders of the sad though
I wonder why my dad's so mad?
How could it be that at twelve years old I'd think about the meaning,
Talk about your being sad?
Where should I pray,
If the church is just a fashion show on Sundays?
Talk about your one-day fads.

Why does dad have a hard time with his dreams?
I hope I'm not the reason he's so mean.
You can bet I'd forget them.

How could it be
I'm so young
Yet so much older than I should be?
Talk about your would be plans.

How could it be that the world is edging me to grow up faster?
Talk about your master plans.
When will it end, all the push and pull of living with a madman?
Know he's not a bad man, man.
Why should I be the one who always settles all the bad stuff?
Laughing through the sad stuff and...
I want to be like the kids I see come smiling in my school now
Hiding in my room now, dad.

Why does God think he's watching a TV?
I wish he'd switch the channel on to me.
You can bet I would let him.

How could it be
I'm so young
Yet so much older than I should be?
Talk about your would be plans.

Talk about your would be plans.
