Ben Folds - Hiro'S Song lyrics

My Name is Hiro I am 51

Since 1980 life has been no fun

And I don't want to die

I left my family for the secretary

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Her name is Yuko she is 22

She and my daughter were best friends in High School

They say I'm crazy and it's temporary

But I refuse to rot like my contemporaries

I wanna explode

In a Karaoke Supernova

I don't wanna grow old

Won't you let me, Won't you let me explode

I don't wanna grow old

Won't you let me, Won't you let me explode

In a Karaoke Supernova, yeah

Last night she dressed me up in hip hop pants

The phat g-stylin rides below your ass

She wants to show me to her mom and dad

I told her I would not be down with that

cuz lately I can feel the years between us

I hope to God my friends at work don't see us

Tonight she asked me if I've ever seen Jesus

Cuz she had backstage passes for three of us

I don't wanna grow old

Won't you let me, Won't you let me explode

I don't wanna grow old

Won't you let me, Won't you let me explode, oh oh

In a Karaoke Supernova, yeah

So now she's gone and broke my heart godd*mn her

Turns out she's been f*cking this drum programmer

She likes his style, she likes his rock start glamour

Well she's an infant! he can d*mn well have her!

I don't wanna grow old

Won't you let me, Won't you let me explode

I don't wanna grow old

Won't you let me, Won't you let me explode

I don't wanna grow old

Won't you let me, Won't you let me explode

I don't wanna grow old

Won't you let me, Won't you let me explode

In a Karaeoke Supernova
