my name is Hiro,
I am 51
since 1980
life has been no fun
and I don't want to die
I left my family
for the secretary
(ah ah)
(ah ah)
(ah ah)

her name is Yuko
she is 22
she and my daughter
were best friends in high school
they say I'm crazy
and it's temporary,
but I refuse to rot
like my contemporaries

I, I wanna explode (oooooooo)
in a karaoke supernova

I don't wanna grow old
won't you let me,
won't you let me explode
I don't wanna grow old
won't you let me,
won't you let me explode
in a karaoke supernova, yeah
(ah ah)
(ah ah)
(ah ah)

last night she dressed me up
in hip hop pants
the phat g-stylin'
that rides below your ass
she wants to show me
to her mom and dad
I told her
I would not be down with that

'cause lately I can feel
the years between us
and hope to God
that friends at work don't see us
tonight she asked me
if I'd ever seen Jesus
'cause she had backstage passes
for the three of us

I don't wanna grow old
won't you let me,
won't you let me explode
I don't wanna grow old
won't you let me,
won't you let me explode, (oh oh)
in a karaoke supernova, yeah

so now she's gone
and broke my heart, goddamn her
turns out she's been fucking
his drum programmer
she likes his style,
she likes his rock start glamour
well, she's an infant!
he can damn well have her!

I don't wanna grow old
won't you let me,
won't you let me explode
I don't wanna grow old
won't you let me,
won't you let me explode

I don't wanna grow old
won't you let me,
won't you let me explode
I don't wanna grow old
won't you let me,
won't you let me explode
in a karaoke supernova

Alright.
Alright, bring the saxes in.
That's good.
Keep it up.

Okay, some more of the drums —
bring in the tamborine.

Yeah, shit yeah!
More shit!
Come on, bring in some more shit!

Baby, come on!
Alright!
It's all, it's all, it's all,
it's all, it's all, it's all me baby!
Come on!
Yeah!
