Lyrics
Put your wisdom teeth
Back on the shelf
You lost them for a reason
They say that you're an adult now
But you still feel the teething
First days of school
A girl that you never saw grow up
You wonder if she's happy
You wish her all the luck
You see her once again as she works
A cashier job
You expect her to recognize you but
She does not
She looks blankly at you as the register beeps
You say no when she asks you about
The receipt
Would've had too pay the world back
What it was owed
The pain of growing up
The pain of growing up
You decide to call your grandmother
She picks up on the first ring
And she just wants to hear about your week
So you tell her everything
You tell her that you love her
The conversation was brief
You feel a pain in your stomach
And can't help but weep
Regretfully the call didn't go on longer
But you still make sure too call next week
You don't know why it upset you like it did
Remembering she was young then
When you were a kid
Would've had too pay the world back
What it was owed
The pain of growing up
The pain of growing up
