 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 -  -  -  -  -
You  keep me in a glass jar sealed with a label
You  think you know my world
Wake  up young girl,
 Take a thrust of love, if you must now
you've  got a lot to learn
My  love, my life, my work, my time
I  give them all to you
Your  hand in mine, we walk, we talk in rhyme
We  go the whole night through
I'm  not a grain of sand
I  don't care what's written in  your hand
 (C->*)
 It's bound to change
Sore,  bored, and I'm lost, cost, cold
 Getting older
Wrap  it up, rip it up now, have it sold
 I'm a grower
Any  more, any more, any more, any more...
I  wanna be with you,
 just wanna be  with you
But  you tease me
 And it shows in the way that you play
You  think you know my love
Wake  up young girl, and take a taste,
 Not a bite of a life now
Can  tell you never come, yeah  well
My  will, my mind, my lips, my lines
 I've got them all  over you
Your  taste combined
 With all the years of wasting time
I've  got a hold on something  new
I'm  not a grain of sand
I  don't care what's written in  your hand
 (C->*)
 Cause it's bound to change
So  I'm bored, and I'm lost, cost, cold
 Getting older
Buy  the book, rip it up now
 Have it sold, I'm a grower
Any  more, any more, any more, any more
 I wanna be  with you
 Just wanna be  with you
I  don't wanna pray for what is not right
And  I don't wanna beg for what is not mine
I  don't wanna rock the road between dreams  and worldly things
I  could charge,
And  I could really try
But  I don't wanna be the brave one
In  a senseless fight
 (->*)
 I, I, I just wanna be here tonight
Sore,  bored, and I'm lost, cost, cold
 Getting older
Wrap  it up, rip it up now
 Have it sold, I'm a grower
Any  more, any more, any more, any more
I  wanna be with you just wanna  be with you
Sore,  bored, and I'm lost, cost, cold
 Getting older
Buy  the book, rip it up now
 Have it sold, I'm a grower
Any  more, any more, any more, any more
Any  more, any more, any more, any more
Any  more, any  more, any  more, any  more
You  keep me in a glass jar sealed with a label
You  think you know my world
Wake  up young girl
