Just made this up 2 nights ago.

Growing Up

Girl runs off to school
In front and behind her
She’s swinging her arms
Skips down the sidewalk
When she’s happy she thinks she
Won’t ever grow up

Pup sniffs out a vole
He trots back to mommy
A present for her
Wagging his tail
Dog’s proud of himself but
Mom hopes he grows up

Upside down, outside in
Some you lose, some you win
And we’re with you my friend
All the way to the end
If you hang your head low
I just hope that you know
Not to empty your cup
Cause we’re all growing up

Man trudge home from work
Hates his job but needs to
Feed the hungry clan
Sinks into the couch
And daydreams about his
Three kids growing up

Guy gets out of bed
Late for work once again
And he can’t pay the rent
When he can’t find his pants
It dawns on him late that
It’s time to grow up

Upside down, outside in
Some you lose, some you win
And we’re with you my friend
All the way to the end
If you hang your head low
I sure hope that you know
Not to empty your cup
Cause you’re just growing up

Woman picnics outside
Dollar off her sub, she’s
Content with the price
Eats it in the park
With sweet-smelling buds of
The rose growing up


Upside down, outside in
Some you lose, some you win
And we’re with you my friend
All the way to the end
If you hang your head low
I just hope that you know
Not to empty your cup
Cause we’re all growing up
