[Verse 1]
I am good, I am grounded
Davy says that I look taller
But I can't get my head around it
I keep feeling smaller and smaller
[Refrain]
I need my girl
I need my girl
[Verse 2]

Davy says that I look taller

I keep feeling smaller and smaller
I keep feeling smaller and smaller
I keep feeling smaller and smaller
