Got no car and I got no honey
Can't buy a thrill, I got no money
And I'm only sixteen, I'll be seventeen soon
I plan my escape every night in my room
When I, I won't be too young
I won't be too young

"Do this, do that" - such a nuisance!
Wait 'til I get my driver's license
I'll find a way to get my hands on the car keys
Drive away in my daddy's Mercury
When I, I won't be too young
I won't be too young

I know they don't give a damn
For what I think or who I am
I'll take my stand
I'm not too young

I know they don't give a damn
For what I think or who I am
I'll take my stand
I'm not too young

Just like a spring, I'm wound up too tight
Just like a bat, I wait for the night
Count my days but they move so slow
And I dream that I drivin', playin' the radio
When I, I won't be too young
I won't be too young
I won't be too young
I won't be too young...
