You'll realize that you're not so tough
That can't see
When I was young, I thought I knew
Without having no visible scar
Baby, when you're old enough
You're not free, yeah, you're not free
I knew exactly what I wanted to do
Well, what you gonna do? What a fool
What you gonna do? What you gonna do now?

What you gonna do? What you gonna do now?

What you gonna do? What you gonna do now?
Think about this carefully
You might not get another chance to speak freely

Baby, when you're old enough
You're not free

You probably think you know, too
What you gonna do now? Yeah
Baby, when you're old enough
You never speak so I have to guess

Oh, nothing

You're too young to have it figured out
You think it will all work itself out
And how have you gotten by so far
Do you? Well, do you?

What you gonna do? What you gonna do now?
You think you know what you're talking about
But we'll see
Knowing, knowing who you really are
Dear, maybe when you're old enough
The only way you'll ever learn a thing

I was naive just like you, I thought
And some days the seas get rough
Is to admit that you know absolutely nothing
Oh, freely, yeah
And you'll see
