Yeah Yeah

_______ up _______ out
Move on, move on
There’s no doubt
I’m all wrong, you’re right
It’s all the same with you
I’m too thin, too fat
You ask why, so why, so why, so why, so why?

On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on

Don’t wanna grow up
I wanna _______ out
Hey, _______ me away
I wanna shout out
_______ me away, away, away, away
Away

Round and round, here we go again
Same old start, same old end
Turn my head, I turn back again
Same old stuff never ends

Do this, do that
Can’t deal, can’t deal with that
I tune in, tune out
I’ve heard it all before
Hello, goodbye
Never asking me why
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on

Don’t wanna grow up
I wanna _______ out
Hey, _______ me away
I wanna shout out
_______ me away, away, away, away
Away

Round and round, here we go again
Same old start, same old end
Turn my head, I turn back again
Same old stuff never ends
