Growing Older But Not Up(Album Version)

Growing Older But Not Up - Jimmy Buffett[00:00:01]

I rounded first never thought of the worst[00:00:09]

As I studied the shortstop's position[00:00:13]

Crack went my leg like the shell of an egg[00:00:17]

Someone call a decent physician[00:00:21]

I'm no Pete Rose I can't pretend[00:00:26]

Though my mind is quite flexible [00:00:34]

These brittle bones don't bend[00:00:38]

I'm growing older but not up[00:00:41]

My metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck[00:00:46]

Let those winds of time blow over my head[00:00:50]

I'd rather die while I'm living[00:00:55]

Than live while I'm dead[00:00:57]

Sometimes I see me as old manatee[00:01:02]

Headin' south as the waters grow colder[00:01:07]

Tries to steer clear of the hum-drum so near[00:01:11]

It cuts prop scars deep in his shoulder[00:01:15]

But that's how it goes that's how it goes [00:01:19]

Right to the end[00:01:24]

Though his body's quite flexible [00:01:27]

That barnacle brain don't bend[00:01:32]

I'm growing older but not up[00:01:35]

My metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck[00:01:39]

Let those winds of time blow over my head[00:01:44]

I'd rather die[00:01:48]

While I'm livin' than live while I'm dead[00:01:49]

Now don't get me wrong[00:02:13]

This is not a sad song[00:02:15]

Just events that I have happened to witness[00:02:17]

And time takes its toll as we head for the poll[00:02:21]

And no one dies from physical fitness[00:02:25]

So what the hell we'll take it right to the end[00:02:30]

As the days grow more complicated the nightlife still wins[00:02:38]

I'm growing older but not up[00:02:46]

My metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck[00:02:50]

Let those winds of change blow over my head[00:02:55]

I'd rather die while I'm living than live while I'm dead[00:02:59]

Let those winds of time blow over my head[00:03:03]

I'd rather die while I'm living than live while I'm dead[00:03:07]
