Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm thirty-something going on thirteen
Still a sponge to everything
Saucer eyes wide, yeah, I still believe
And a sparkle in my steps
Smiling with my teeth
[Verse 2]
They say that I might lose my Midas touch
They also say I may become irrelevant
But who the fuck are they anyway?
I don't care what they say
[Verse 3]
I won't act my age
Time is just an invention man has made
No, I won't act my age
It's just my reflection that is out of date
[Verse 4]
'Cause it's all in your attitude
It's all in your point of view
I won't act my age
Just need a little bit of Peter Pan
And some imagination
No, I won't act my age
[Verse 5]
So, I recommend that you lose your mind
It was the only thing that was keeping me behind
[Verse 6]
They say curb your curiosity
They also say, prepare to amend your dreams
But who the fuck are they anyway?
I don't care what they say
[Verse 7]
'Cause I won't act my age
Time is just an invention man has made
No, I won't act my age
It's just my reflection that is out of date
[Verse 8]
'Cause it's all in your attitude
It's all in your point of view
I won't act my age (Come on)
Just need a little bit of Peter Pan
And some imagination
No, I won't act my age
[Verse 9]
How old would you be? Yeah
How old would you really be?
If you didn't know, yeah
How old you really were
[Verse 10]
How old would you be? Yeah
How old would you really be?
If you didn't know, know
How old you really were
[Verse 11]
Hey, I won't act my age
Time is just an invention man has made
No, I won't act my age
It's just my reflection that is out of date
[Verse 12]
'Cause it's all in your attitude
It's all in your point of view
I won't act my age
Just need a little bit of Peter Pan
And some imagination
No, I won't act my age (I won't act my age)
[Verse 13]
Oh, yeah
Oh
Oh, yeah
Oh, I won't act my age
