With thirteen I woke up from a dream Things were not the same well you know what I mean You know it's strange I never felt this way And now everyday my world begins to change I wanna do all the things they tell me not to do And it's true I'm gonna find out something new When I'm eighteen when I'm eighteen I just can't wait 'til I get eighteen The sun will shine the girls they smile The world is mine when I get eighteen When I walk by the girls they start to cry And on the schoolyard all the boys are getting high My parents seem to think I'm too extreme But the whole world outside is waiting there for me I wanna do all the things I'm not allowed to do And it's true my life will be so beautiful When I'm eighteen when I'm eighteen I just can't wait 'til I get eighteen The sun will shine the girls they smile The world is mine when I get eighteen
