growin' up - bruce springsteen lyrics

i stood stonelike 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 came out
with my soul untouchedi hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd but when they
said “sit down” i stood upooh-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 ’em 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 upooh-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
well my feet they finally took root in the earth but
i got me a nice little place in the stars
i swear i found the key to the universe in the engine of an old parked car
i hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd but when they
said “sit down” i stood upooh-ooh growin’ upooh-ooh growin’ up
