Lyrics
Picture me Just another cool kid in NYC Near the park and the Met Got my crew Everything was great and I never knew Just how bad it would get Who’d have guessed Dad would ruin everything? Mom’s depressed And her lawyers are mean Now I’m stressed Life is a disaster And I’m cracking from the strain Going totally insane And I’m just about to turn Just about to turn Just about to turn Thirteen! Everything switches Thirteen! Everything turns around Thirteen! End up in st**ches Thirteen! Hide away underground Thirteen! Can I get through it? Thirteen! Life'll change overnight Thirteen! How do I do it? Thirteen! Nothing is going right Thе best and the worst And the most and thе least And the crazy and the scary And I’m standing on the edge! Twelve years old Everything that used to be good as gold Starts to crumble and crack Pressure mounts Once it was a joke, now it really counts And there’s no turning back Life goes wrong Suddenly they’re yelling that your hair’s too long Or your room isn’t clean Roll along Every conversation is another lost cause Or a list of my flaws And I’m just about to turn Just about to turn God, I’m gonna to turn Thirteen! What am I doing? Thirteen! Who am I gonna be? Thirteen! Somebody listen Thirteen! Somebody talk to me! Why is my life a complete disaster? How did things get so far off track? How can I not go to Indiana? How do I get my family back? I wanna fly Wanna run Wanna drive Wanna get rich Wanna get mad Wanna get out Wanna get my braces off Wanna get my nose pierced Wanna grow my hair long But all I keep hearing is "No, you’re not ready!" "No, it’s not time yet!" "No, it’s not right now!" "Wait until you’re older!" "No, you’re not ready!" "No, it’s not time yet!" "No, it’s not right now!" "Wait until you’re older!" "No, you’re not ready!" "No, it’s not time yet!" "No, it’s not right now!" "Wait until you’re older!" Homework! Laundry! Dishes! Courses! Just settle down and hold your horses! Just about to turn Just about to turn Just about to turn Just about to turn Thirteen! Something is coming Thirteen! Something is blowing up Thirteen! Something is humming Thirteen! Somebody’s growing up Thirteen! Thirteen! Thirteen! Thirteen! The best and the worst And the most and the least And the crazy and the scary And we’re just about to turn Thirteen!
