The Boy Least Likely To - When I Grow Up I Want to Be a Boy Again lyrics

the smell of suntan cream reminds me of you smiling, sadly, back at me as I sat there in my bubble stacking pebbles up on a sunny day I still remember when I was young I thought I would be young forever I swim 'round and 'round on my tinfoil pond like an ugly duckling that does not want to have to turn into a swan, yeah when I grow up I want to be a boy again I still get excited when it snows sitting in my bubble with my imaginary friends wishing that we didn't have to be so realistic all the time I lie awake at night and count the stars I fill jelly-jars with plastic flowers I go 'round and 'round in circles on my hamster wheel I can feel the whole world quietly closing in on me in my little bubble when I grow up I want to be a boy again I still get excited when it snows sitting in my bubble with my box of felt-tip pens wishing that I didn't have to be so realistic all the time
