Katy Perry — Growing Pains

[Verse 1] You would think that I could find A simple song, a photograph of mine To show this public eye what I have to offer I may not have a PhD Or speak in eloquent philosophy I'm nothing more than simply me, you'll see [Pre-Chorus] What I am trying to say, hey I'm just a babe in so many ways [Chorus] I'm still growing, still stretching Still breaking in these new shoes Looking for a way to make a mark of my own I'm just a spring chick, wet behind the ears It's a part of life, so there's no need to fear These growing pains that I'm going through [Verse 2] I don't regret, I'm not ashamed That I haven't yet begun to speaketh ways (As the wisest of men) Oh perhaps some day but for now I'm grateful To be a part of the family tree While The Man upstairs does His work on me It's a job that may take eternity to complete Just when I've learned all I can Those growing pains up and kick on in again [Chorus] Still growing, still stretching Still breaking in these new shoes Looking for a way to make a mark of my own I'm just a spring chick, wet behind the ears It's a part of life, so there's no need to fear These growing pains that I'm going through [Verse 3] Time after time, one more time and again Will it ever end? It's the lessons in our lives that make us wise But young or old, I am told it's the same Oh, these growing pains never go away So I'll just keep on trying [Instrumental Break] [Pre-Chorus] What I am trying to say, hey I'm just a babe in so many ways [Chorus] Still growing, still stretching Still breaking in these new shoes Looking for a way to make a mark of my own I'm just a spring chick, wet behind the ears It's a part of life, so there's no need to fear These growing pains that I'm going through Oh, baby don't worry about a thing [Outro] Thank you Thank you very much Thank you Thank you
