"This is a special moment right now. We'd like to take this time to tell all the kids at home, send the parents out of the room, this is a kids' song." Life's gonna suck when you grow up, When you grow up, when you grow up Life's gonna suck when you grow up, It sucks pretty bad right now "Hey, if you know the words, sing along!" You're gonna have to mow the lawn, Do the dishes, make your bed You're gonna have to go to school Until you're seventeen "It's gonna seem about three times as long as that." You might have to go to war, Shoot a gun, kill a nun You might have to go to war When you get out of school "Hey cheer up kids, it gets a lot worse!" You're gonna have to deal with stress, Deal with stress, deal with stress You're gonna be a giant mess When you get back from the war Santa Claus does not exist, and there is no Easter Bunny You'll find out when you grow up that Big Bird isn't funny, funny, funny Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! Life's gonna suck when you grow up, When you grow up, when you grow up Life's gonna suck when you grow up, It sucks pretty bad right now You're gonna end up smoking crack, On you're back, face the fact You're gonna end up hooked on smack And then you're gonna die And then you're gonna die "Song for the kids." "Well, I think I smell a lawsuit in that one; what do you think?"
