When I Grow Up (Alt Pop Mix)Garbage

[Intro]
Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba

[Verse 1]
Cut my tongue out, I've been caught out
Like a giant juggernaut
Happy hours, golden showers
On a cruise to freak you out

We could fly a helicopter
Nothing left to talk about
Entertain you, celebrate you
I'll be back to frame you

[Chorus]
When I grow up I'll be stable
When I grow up I'll turn the tables

[Verse 2]
Trying hard to fit among you
Floating out to wonderland
Unprotected, God I'm pregnant
Damn the consequences

[Chorus]
When I grow up I'll be stable
When I grow up I'll turn the tables

[Interlude]
Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba

[Verse 3]
Blood and blisters on my fingers
Chaos rules when we're apart
Watch my temper, I go mental
I'll try to be gentle

[Bridge]
When I grow up I'll be stable
When I grow up I'll turn the tables
When I grow up
When I grow up
When I grow up
I'll turn the tables

[Outro]
Don't take offense
Can I make amends?
Rip it all to shreds and let it go
Don't take offense
Can I make amends?
Rip it all to shreds and let it go

I rip it all to shreds and let it go
I rip it all to shreds and let it go
I rip it all to shreds and let it go
How you like it best, you let me know

Ahhhhh

Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba

Garbage

Garbage is a Scottish-American Alternative rock band, formed April 8th 1994. Once producer Butch Vig decided to break out of the rock he had been producing ever since Nirvana’s Nevermind, he got together with his college/studio partners Duke Erikson and Steve Marker to write some demos that would basically be remixes in song form. Once someone commented that “it sounds like garbage”, Vig decided to embrace the name. Then they invited Scottish singer Shirley Manson after seeing her on MTV, and the band’s sound was completed with sly, dark and snarky lyrics delivered in a sultry way.

The band’s eponymous debut album was a surprise hit upon release in August 1995, selling more than 4 million copies worldwide. Follow-up Version 2.0 (1998) was equally successful, even receiving a Grammy nomination for Album of the Year. Then the band recorded “The World Is Not Enough” to the eponymous James Bond movie, and the record industry started to bring the band down.

Beautiful Garbage (2001) was barely promoted due to a release too close to the 9/11 attacks, and underperformed at the charts. Fourth album Bleed Like Me (2005) had a troubled production where bandmembers were frequently arguing, and eventually the album’s tour was cut short and Garbage disbanded for 2 years, only regrouped in 2007 to record new tracks for greatest hits compilation Absolute Garbage.
