lyrics

I don't like the rain
I don't like the cold
I don't like the feeling of getting old
I don't feel excited
I don't feel enthralled
I don't think I'd like to relearn how to crawl

I'm sure that those before
Had a greater appreciation
Of a world that ends each day
For some people who got in the way

I don't understand the grown-up land
Why can't we just live like Peter Pan

I don't like to yell
I don't like to shout
The subject matter's shady
What's this fight about
Do we go to war
Do we stay at home
To many grown-ups thinking
And now we're all alone

In a world that ends each day
For some people who got in the way

I don't understand the grown-up land
Why can't we just live like Peter Pan

I can feel the end
Comin' every day
It's feeling like forever
Since I went out and played

Now I'm of age
The child's in the cage
And everyone seems
To act the same
I can do what I want
When I choose
I even have the option
To buy my own booze
I'm sure that those before
Had a greater appreciation
Of a world that ends each day
For some people who got in the way

I don't understand the grown-up land
Why can't we just live like Peter Pan
I don't understand the grown-up land
Why can't we just live like Peter Pan

The Hatty Fatners image

The Hatty Fatners Newcastle, Australia

The Hatty Fatners are a hard hitting, high energy group of wacky performers.
They play a radical mix of Jazz, Blues, Rock n Roll, Funk and Theatrics while charming you with their hyperactive stage pressence and eccentric outfits. They are like if Vaudeville and Swing had a love child!
They are a newly formed band with high hopes and a lot of plans. ... more
