snow cones for a week Songtext

growing up's for grown ups and you and i are anything but
so let's build a fort in your living room with the blankets from your bed
our friends are going off to school they say we're crazy if we don't too
but they'll wear business suits, work the nine-to-five, wear sneakers 'til we're dead

we'll sleep in 'til three and take in everything we see
and promise to always stay thirteen even when we're forty-five
so let's turn into trees and live off snow cones for a week
go everywhere in our bare feet if that's what makes us feel alive

let's talk quietly so we can hear the crickets sing
and promise to always stay, let's always stay thirteen
