Ariel Pink

Ariel Marcus Rosenberg ( AR-ee-el; born June 24, 1978), also known as Ariel Pink, is an American multi-instrumentalist, singer, and songwriter whose music draws heavily from 1970s–1980s pop radio and cassette culture. His lo-fi aesthetic and home-recorded albums proved influential to many indie artists in the late 2000s, and he is frequently cited as "godfather" of the hypnagogic pop and chillwave movements. The majority of his recorded output stems from a prolific eight-year period in which he accumulated over 200 cassette tapes of material. A native of Los Angeles, Rosenberg began experimenting with recording songs on an eight-track Portastudio as a teenager. His early influences were artists such as Michael Jackson, the Cure, and R.

They say that part of growing up is
Getting a job
Well, I don't wanna grow up
They say part of being young is
Going to school
Well, I'd rather throw up

They used to say I was a good kid
Now I'm a good kid
Did that by staying in school
But now they say that I'm a dumb man
Cause I'm a good kid
Don't you understand?

They say part of being grown is
Having your way
I guess I'll be a grown up today
They also say that the key to being grown
Is staying young
I don't wanna grow up

They say that young boys got it easy
Just try to please me
And you can get your way
But I won't be nobody's baby
Cause I'm so lazy
And I happen to be me

Won't you believe
The terrors deep inside won't come out

They should have told me that being so good
Would make me so bad
But nobody knew, no
Growing up is not as half as fun as
Growing down
The other way I'm...
(Under the ground
Under the ground, oh)

They used to say I was a bad kid
I'm glad that they did
Now I play all the time
Now people say I grew up early
I better hurry
Cause good kids make bad grown ups

And part of the artistic process is going berserk
But I don't wanna blow up
They say that part of growing up is getting a job
I don't wanna grow up!

They used to say I was a bad kid
I'm glad that they did
Now I can play all the time
Now people say I grew up early
I better hurry
Cause good kids -

Won't you believe
We'll help you in the night
'Til we come home

Won't you conceive
We'll find you when you're home
Just out of reach
