Growin' Up Lyrics
Artist: Bruce Springsteen
Album: Greetings From Asbury Park, N.J.
I stood stone-like at midnight, suspended in my masquerade
I combed my hair till it was just right and commanded the night brigade
I was open to pain and crossed by the rain and I walked on a crooked crutch
I strolled all alone through a fallout zone and come out with my soul untouched
I hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd, but when they said, "Sit down," I stood up
Ooh... growin' up
The flag of piracy flew from my mast, my sails were set wing to wing
I had a jukebox graduate for first mate, she couldn't sail but she sure could sing
I pushed B-52 and bombed them with the blues with my gear set stubborn on standing
I broke all the rules, strafed my old high school, never once gave thought to landing
I hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd, but when they said, "Come down," I threw up
Ooh... growin' up
I took month-long vacations in the stratosphere, and you know it's really hard to hold your breath
I swear I lost everything I ever loved or feared, I was the cosmic kid in full costume dress
Well, my feet they finally took root in the earth, but I got me a nice little place in the stars
And I swear I found the key to the universe in the engine of an old parked car
I hid in the mother breast of the crowd, but when they said, "Pull down," I pulled up
Ooh... growin' up
Ooh... growin' up

Genius Lyrics - wow
What an amazing song...
good song
Story of my life
love this song, its very, very, very, very, good.
Love this song...but i think its "clouded warmth of the crowd"...
The Man, The Myth, The Legend, what else need to be said
HATE THIS SONG WITH A PASION....IT'S SUCKS THAT I HAVE TO USE IT FOR SOMETHING FOR SCHOOL
One time I gave Bruce HEAD
This song is beautiful.
First off... Incredible song. Bruce is one of the most brilliant lyricists ever. I normally avoid feeding trolls more than W avoided Vietnam, but I must say something. WTF is a "terioist?" Congratulations.Not only are you racist but also illiterate... Dangerous combination if ever there was one. And to OMG: you may get it someday, but judging by the attitude in your comment, most likely not. That is all.
Nyc one
Maggie got sick and Jason's a prick and it's snowin' in Buffalo
Oh.... Throwin' up
I used to have Steve Rubel, and Andy Warhol hammer me with a bronze dildo in a back room at Studio 54 to this song (screw disco music) damn I wish I was still around! How's Liza?
I also gave Bruce head
I gave Bruce head.
wow
Awesome song by a dipshit liberal
Clarence once blew a load on Bills face while I tounge punched Bruce's dirt star! Great Song!
