Morrissey - That’s How People Grow Up Lyrics
I was wasting my time
Trying to fall in love
Disappointment came to me and
Booted me and bruised and hurt me
But that’s how people grow up
That’s how people grow up
I was wasting my time
Looking for love
Someone must look at me
and see there’s someone of their dreams
I was wasting my time
Waiting for love
For the love that never comes from
Someone who does not exist
That’s how people grow up
That’s how people grow up
Let me live before I die
Oh, not me, not I
I was wasting my life
Always thinking about myself
Someone on the deathbed said
“There are other sorrows too”
I was driving my car
I crashed and broke my spine
So yes, there are things worse in life than
Never being someone’s sweetie
That’s how people grow up
That’s how people grow up
As for me I’m ok
For now anyway

“That’s How People Grow Up” What an irony, this is the kind of insipid drivel you’d expect from a whiny teen.
I love much of his work, which just makes this all the more upsetting. Over the years, he has written some truly memorable and heartfelt songs - this just isn’t one of those.
Lines like :
“Waiting for love
For the love that never comes from
Someone who does not exist”
are so banal and obvious, it’s embarrassing.
