It's about being young, wanting to be young forever, living in the moment and having a blast". [2] Talking about the song's conception to 4Music, Lavigne revealed that she missed her high school prom so much, and that was the reason why she wrote "Here's To Never Growing Up". [1] She said, "When I was writing it, I was thinking about being younger – I’m still in my 20s, but you know, like high school – and with my 20s being in music and everything, I love the concept of 'simply prom' for the video".

Composition

"Here's To Never Growing Up" is a midtempo pop rock song, with a moderate tempo of 82 beats per minute. [7] [10] [11] [12] It is composed in the key of F major. [12] Lavigne's vocal range in the track spans from the low-note of A3 to the high-note of C5. [12] The "punchy" song is built around a "big, kick-drum" stomp, acoustic-guitar-strumming, and simple-minded tunes. [1] [13] Digital Spy editor Robert Cospey wrote the song has a "pumping guitars 'n drums melody". [8] Melinda Newman from HitFix thought that "Here's to Never Growing Up" is a "throwback" to Kesha's "Tik Tok" (2009) and Lavigne's "Girlfriend" (2007) for the same musical structure. [13]

Lyrically, the song talks about a "celebration of being forever young". [8] In the song, Lavigne sings about the things she's going to do that she believes will keep her forever young, such as getting drunk and dancing on a bar, running down the street screaming profanities, blasting music and staying up all night. [9] At the beginning, Lavigne sings "Singing Radiohead at the top of our lungs", referencing the rock band Radiohead, which is also featured in the chorus. [8] At the chorus, she continues "We'll be running down the street yelling kiss my ass", followed by an "ear-snagging chant" of "oh-woah-oh". [8] Lavigne declares her celebration at the second verse, "This is who we are/ I don't think we'll ever change/ They say 'Just grow up,' but they don't know us/ We don't give a fuck!". [10]

[15] Melinda Newman of HitFix provided a mixed review, writing that "You may find yourself begrudgingly clapping your hands and swaying to the generic "Here’s To Never Growing Up", but you won't like yourself for doing so. It feels like it was crafted in some pop lab as "the song" that will get Lavigne back on the charts". [13] Tris McCall from New Jersey On-Line was more positive, commenting that the song "likely to be a summertime anthem" and compared its theme to songs by Lavigne's contemporaries such as "22" by Taylor Swift, "We Are Young" by fun., and "Teenage Dream" by Katy Perry.
