southdown motor co 
2a bus 
you can see right inside 
my parent's house 
sitting at the table and my dinner's up 
it's gonna be different when 
the kid's grown up 

gonna save some money 
and quit this job 
light the way 
clear the stage 
the kid's grown up 

used to play in the underground 
hyde park 
now I'm riding in a limousine 
through the underpass 
I'm sitting in an aeroplane 
it's all such a rush 
people all around me making 
so much fuss 

and I've got a little money 
but it ain't gonna burn me up 
if I'm in your town 
tonight I am -- watch out 
the kid's grown up
