Adulting Lyrics

 Dr. Doofenshmirtz:
So you say you got a patch for leading people through a jungle?
But I’ve got a prescription for this anti-fungal
So I win
Isabella:
How is that winning?
Dr. Doofenshmirtz:
I’m just saying I’m prepared

Isabella:
Undecided whether I should feel disturbed or scared
Dr. Doofenshmirtz:
I’m older and bolder
Got this ache in my shoulder
I keep my medical records
In this manilla folder
Isabella:
Meaning?
Dr. Doofenshmirtz:
Just that I’ve lived more

Isabella:
But I’ve got a better feelin’ for the great outdoors
 Dr. Doofenshmirtz:
You think you know just what to do
But I’ve got a ton more experience than you
In adulting
Isabella:
Is that what it’s called?

 Dr. Doofenshmirtz:
I know you don’t know what I mean
But you’re not gonna know it till ya turn eighteen
It’s called “adulting”
Isabella:
That’s not a verb
 Dr. Doofenshmirtz:
When you’re no longer a private, you’re a sarge
You’re all grown up and you’re livin’ large
Ya get to be the one in charge
(spoken)
Get it off of me! Get it off of me!

It’s called adulting
Isabella:
It’s still not a verb
 Dr. Doofenshmirtz:
Come on, back me up, Ferb
Ferb:
It’s not a verb
  Dr. Doofenshmirtz:
Whatever

Or start a fire?
Dr. Doofenshmirtz:

Build a shelter?
Dr. Doofenshmirtz:
No

Or change a tire?

Dig a hole?

No

Pitch a tent?

No

 Dr. Doofenshmirtz:

Now I think our only care
And I think this question is really fair
Is can you get us from here to there?
 Dr. Doofenshmirtz:
Absolutely!
Isabella:
You can? How?

 Dr. Doofenshmirtz:
By adulting!
Yes, adulting!

 Dr. Doofenshmirtz:
‘Cause I’m adulting!
I’m an adult!
