lyrics

All the grownups get to stay up late
And it doesn’t matter what I say
When I finally fall asleep they can read or watch TV
Or have another piece of cake

All the grownups get to do what they want
And it’s never any other way
No one reprimands or makes demands
They’re free to choose their fate

Life is so unfair
I don’t get my fair share
In the spring and summer
It’s still light at bedtime and
No one seems to care

All the grownups get the final say
And it’s always going to be that way
In my bed I keep them talking, want ‘em to be near
Still they say goodnight and walk away
All the grownups get to stay up late

When I’m a grownup
I’ll have my cake and eat it too
I’ll be the one who makes the rules around here
And my kid will sing the same sad song
That I sing now

All the grownups get to stay up late
I do not fully accept my fate
When I shout or stomp my feet and say “that’s not fair”
Grownups take the bait
That’s the way I get to stay up late
I get to stay up late

Sara Lovell Berkeley, California

Sara Lovell's third children’s music album in less than four years, Night Life, celebrates the hours leading to bedtime and the magical worlds we enter when we finally fall sleep. As with her last two award winning albums, the new release moves beautifully between diverse musical genres – at moments riotous and full of unrestrained joy, at other moments tender, introspective and melodic. ... more
