rate me

PETER PAN:

Are you ready for today's lesson?

ALL:

Yes, sir!

PETER PAN:

Listen to your father. Repeat after me:

I won't grow up,

----I won't grow up

I don't want to go to school.

----I don't want to go to school

Just to learn to be a parrot,

----Just to learn to be a parrot

And recite a silly rule.

----And recite a silly rule

If growing up means

It would be beneath my dignity to climb a tree,

I'll never grow up, never grow up, never grow up

Not me!

Not I,

Not me!

Not me!

I won't grow up,

----I won't grow up

I don't want to wear a tie.

----I don't want to wear a tie

Or a serious expression

----Or a serious expression

In the middle of July.

----In the middle of July

And if it means I must prepare

To shoulder burdens with a worried air,

I'll never grow up, never grow up, never grow up

Not me,

Not I,

Not me!

So there!

Never gonna be a man,

I won't!

Like to see somebody try

And make me.

Anyone who wants to try

And make me turn into a man,

Catch me if you can.

I won't grow up.

----I wont grow up

I will never even try

----I will never even try

I will do what Peter tells me

----I will do what Peter tells me

And I'll never ask him why

----And I'll never ask him why

We won't grow up!

----We won't grow up

We will never grow a day

----We will never grow a day

And if someone tries to make it

----And if someone tries to make it

We will simply run away

----We will simply run away

I won't grow up!

----I won't grow up

No, I promise that I won't

----No, I promise that I won't

I will stay a boy forever

----I will stay a boy forever

And be banished if I don't!

----And be banished if I don't

And Never Land will always be

The home of youth and joy

And liberty

I'll never grow up, never grow up, never grow up

Not me!

Not me!

Not I!

I wont!

No sir!

Not me!

Not me!
