Grow up to be pretty
Grow up smart and grow up tall
Grow up and you speak your mind
But don't speak it in our halls
Grow up without fuss
Grow up 'cause you must
Grow up to be us

Grow up to be wise
But don't ask question don't ask why
Grow up knowing when to speak
And when to close your eyes
Know who you can trust
Just as we discussed
Who you trust is us

Smile child
Don't let them see the truth
Walk child
Follow the path you outgrew
Stumble and then fall out of the future they have planned for you
Straight into your tomb

Grow up to be mighty
Grow up strong and grow up bold
Grow up but don't grow too much
Don't take space that you're not owed
Be giving of love
But don't love too much
Don't try outshine us

Grow up to be kind
But don't forget you're on our side
Grow up knowing who's a friend and who's feeding you lies
Make sure you play nice
To those you despise
But keep a keen eye

Smile child
Don't let them see the truth
Walk child
Follow the path you outgrew
Stumble and then fall out of the future they have planned for you
Careful as you slip the way is steep and there's a mist shrouding your view
You'll fall in your tomb
