You might think that by now I’d have The fruits of my maturity— Good judgement and some dignity The wisdom of my years— And doing really stupid things Would now have no appeal to me My lessons learned, My hard earned wisdom paid for with my tears. But you’d be wrong.

You might think that by now I’d have The fruits of my maturity— Good judgement and some dignity The wisdom of my years— And doing really stupid things Would now have no appeal to me My lessons learned, My hard earned wisdom paid for with my tears. But you’d be wrong.
