“Grow Up” is the second single to be lifted from Olly’s fifth album, 24 HRS.
The track is a mix between acoustic and pop, and is about thinking of a former lover, and wondering what happened between them. He’s also realising that she never really seemed to take the relationship seriously, so he’s t...
[Verse 1]
I thought about you the other day
What the hell happened with you and me?
Cause, oh, ain't no lovin' no more
You ain't as cool as you used to be
Closer to the mirror than you are to me
I said, oh, had to show you that door
[Pre-Chorus]
Someday I hope we can fix it, 'cause I ain't too proud to try
Say hi to your friends, and if they ever ask you why
We don't talk...
[Chorus]
Know you gotta grow up
Ain't you sick of being immature?
Talkin' loud 'cause you're insecure
You always turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, c'mon
Why you always gotta show off?
You're so vain, I already know
That when you hear this on the radio
You're gonna turn it up, turn it up, turn it up
[Post-Chorus]
'Cause it's all about you-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
It's all about you-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
Now you said some stuff that you can't take back
How did you think that I would react?
Cause you, you must be out of your mind, no
How did we go straight from love to hate?
Now it's so deep that we can't be mates
I said, oh, we should give it some time
[Pre-Chorus]
Someday I hope we can fix it, 'cause I ain't too proud to try
Say hi to your friends, and if they ever ask you why
We don't talk...
[Chorus]
Know you gotta grow up
Ain't you sick of being immature?
Talkin' loud 'cause you're insecure
You always turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, c'mon
Why you always gotta show off?
You're so vain, I already know
That when you hear this on the radio
You're gonna turn it up, turn it up, turn it up
[Post-Chorus]
'Cause it's all about you-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
It's all about you-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
[Bridge]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Anytime you start it
You're growing up a little, darlin'
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Anytime you start it
You're growing up a little, darlin'
[Chorus]
Know you gotta grow up
(Know you gotta grow up)
Ain't you sick of being immature?
(Ain't you sick of being immature?)
Talkin' loud 'cause you're insecure
(Talkin' loud 'cause you're insecure)
You always turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, c'mon
Why you always gotta show off?
(Why you always gotta show off?)
You're so offended, I already know
(You're so offended, I already know)
But when you hear this on the radio
You're gonna turn it up, turn it up, turn it up
[Outro]
'Cause it's all about you-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
It's all about you-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Anytime you start it
You're growing up a little darlin'
'Cause it's all about you-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
It's all about you-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Anytime you start it
You're growing up a little darlin'
Grow Up was written by KAMILLE & Steve Robson & Wayne Hector & Olly Murs.
Grow Up was produced by Tommy Baxter & Adam Midgley & Steve Robson.
Speaking to BBC, Olly Murs said this about the song:
We started the session writing about a specific person but as the song developed, we all sat in the room and spoke about people we felt needed to grow up and people we didn’t like.
Sometimes you fall out with your friends and sometimes you just g...
