0:03Ah mate
0:07A wise man once said
0:09Just as things start looking up
0:11It all goes to sh*t again
0:14Story of my f**king life
0:19I'm growing up growing up growing up in public
0:23Growing up growing up growing up in public
0:26Growing up growing up growing up in public
0:29Growing up growing up growing up in public
0:32They told me to act my age
0:37Maybe one day I'll act it
0:41But for now I'm going backwards yeah
0:46Lacing up my shoes buttoning my shirt
0:48I don't know why I'm bothering
0:50You can't polish a turd
0:52Is my tie straight
0:55I did it and I did it all my way
0:57I told you from the get go
0:58It was my way or the high way
1:00And I weren't lying then
1:02Ain't lying now never been a walk over
1:03Ain't lying down
1:04It's nothing new to me
1:06The press ain't ever been too nice
1:08I ain't surprised
1:09The headline was about the DUI
1:11I'm growing up growing up growing up in public
1:14Growing up growing up growing up in public
1:17Growing up growing up growing up in public
1:21Growing up growing up growing up in public
1:24Think to yourself what would I have done
1:26Somebody popped my watch and then tried to run
1:28We got in a tussle all the while
1:30I had no idea where my wife had gone
1:32Plus I'm poignant on
1:33Whether he's got a gun or a knife on him
1:35Not knowing if her life was in
1:37Danger why I tried to hold on to the watch
1:39And fight the
1:40Then I heard her scream
1:42So I'm guessing he bought more guys with him
1:44F**k the watch my priority's Millie now
1:47You think what I did was so silly
1:48Now you've figured it out
1:50Worked out the reason for me getting into the whip
1:53Not only is this dickhead who got me kicked
1:55And gotten away with my watch
1:57He's gone and gotten me in all of this sh*t
1:59Shame I never caught up to him in the whip eh
2:03I'm growing up growing up growing up in public
2:06Growing up growing up growing up in public
2:09Growing up growing up growing up in public
2:13Growing up growing up growing up in public
2:16OK if I'm being logical
2:19In hindsight then probably
2:20It is not a shame
2:21That I didn't catch up to the little toerag in the car
2:24Because that could've ended with me
2:26In more trouble than I already am

2:34I don't like you at all
2:38We will never ever be friends
2:43I don't wanna be a criminal
2:44I'm nearly 30 years old
2:46I'm a married man
2:47I wanna move to the country
2:49Have children and smoke my pipe
2:54With nothing illegal in it
2:55I'm growing up growing up growing up in public
2:58Growing up growing up growing up in public
3:01Growing up growing up growing up in public
3:04Growing up growing up growing up in public
3:08Growing up growing up growing up in public
3:11Growing up growing up growing up in public
3:14Growing up growing up growing up in public
3:18Growing up growing up growing up in public
