I can′t believe you missed rehearsal again
You know, it isn't all about you
It affects the rest of us, what you do
What, my brother break your heart? Huh?
′Cause it sure broke mine when I found out he was seeing you
Poor Ivy, stuck wanting the one thing she can't have
Yeah, well, you know what?
I am so sick of you moping around
When you've had the world handed to you
Just because you′re pretty
I would trade places with you in a heartbeat
Remember back in 7th grade?
Endless games of truth or dare
Double dates to Shea′s arcade
When I close my eyes I'm there
I think my mother took this picture
Back when we were all just friends
Memories that fade and flicker
Burn again when I pretend
Life is short and life is strange
Troubled now and troubled past
Times have changed, they rearrange
And little girls grow up so fast
Feel it how it grows inside me
Swirling ball of anguished cries
Haunted, daunted, so unwanted
Feel its anger in me rise
Dream a dream then dash another
Life is there to interrupt
Someone out there call my mother
Look at me, mom, I′m all grown up
All those years she scrimped and saved
And now, of course, it comes to this
Or learned to stop at just a kiss
It hits me, paralyzing shudder
Face the music, take a bow
Just another unwed mother
One more sad statistic now
Dream a dream then dash another
Life is there to interrupt
Someone out there call my mother
Look at me, I'm all grown up
Look at me, I′m all grown up
Am I supposed to love this child?
Is it just that simple then?
Tell me how this change will happen
Tell me how and tell me when
Tell me how and tell me when
Dream a dream then dash another
Life is there to interrupt
Someone out there tell my mother
Look at me, I'm all grown up
