Where Are the Grown Ups?

[Verse 1]
The bully has taken the playground
The smallest are trembling in fear
Everyone's yelling and shoving
And I'm standing here

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm waiting for them to come running
Aren't they supposed to arrive?

[Chorus]
Where are the grown-ups?
To save the day?
Where are the grown-ups?
To make it okay?
Somebody's gotta come clean this mess off the floor
Where are the grown-ups we've been waiting for? (Na na na na)
Where are the grown-ups? (Na na na na)

[Verse 2]
The bully is building a fortress
For only his friends at the top
He's slamming the rest into lockers
Please make him stop

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm looking around for an answer
I thought they'd be here by now

[Chorus]
Where are the grown-ups? (Where are the grown-ups?)
To save the day?
Where are the grown-ups? (Where are the grown-ups?)
To show us the way?
Somebody's gotta come clean this mess off the floor
Where are the grown-ups we've been waiting for? (Na na na na)
Where are the grown-ups? (Na na na na)

[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
The kid on my lap won't stop crying
She's scared of the man on T.V
Her small eyes are widened with worry
She turns to me

[Pre-Chorus]
She's looking for some kind of answer
And now I have mine

[Chorus]
We are the grown-ups (Where are the grown-ups?)
To save the day
We are the grown-ups (Where are the grown-ups?)
To show us the way
We're not gonna take this bully's shit anymore
And we're the grown-ups we've been waiting for (Weee)
My god we are the grown-ups (Weee)
We are the grown-ups
So what are we waiting for?
