Lyrics

I'm not prepared for the future
 So many things that I just don't know
 I cut my hair, bought a new shirt
 New pair of shoes, and it's time to go
 I finally found an apartment
 Signed a lease on a car this month
 I can't go back to the start now, time doesn't slow down
 I'm on my own
 Guess my childhood is over
 Now I'm taking down the posters
 And I'm putting all my things inside a box next to a toaster
 That's my closest thing to closure
 I can't stop this roller coaster
 I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older
 Guess my childhood is over
 Now I'm taking down my posters
 And I'm telling all my friends we'll get together next October
 That's my closest thing to closure
 I can't stop this roller coaster
 I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older
 ♪
 Never thought I'd be 20
 And 30 don't seem so far away
 I know I gotta make a little money, then maybe find somebody
 To call my own
 Mmm, I'm not ready, but I
 Can't go back in time
 I know it's all out of my control, now I know
 Guess my childhood is over
 Now I'm taking down my posters
 And I'm putting all my things inside a box next to a toaster
 That's my closest thing to closure
 I can't stop this roller coaster
 I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older
 Guess my childhood is over
 Now I'm taking down my posters
 And I'm telling all my friends we'll get together next October
 That's my closest thing to closure
 I can't stop this roller coaster
 I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older
 ♪
 Guess my childhood is over
 One day I'll be buying posters for my kids
 Just like my parents did for me, it's never over
 They'll grow up and soon enough
 They'll wish that time would just move slower
 I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older
 Guess my childhood is over
 Now I'm taking down the posters
 And I'm putting all my things inside a box next to a toaster
 That's my closest thing to closure
 I can't stop this roller coaster
 I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older
 ♪
 I'm not prepared for the future
 So many things that I just don't know
 I cut my hair, bought a new shirt
 New pair of shoes, and it's time to go
