"Growing on Me" is a song by the glam metal band The Darkness from their album "Permission to Land". It was released as a single in June 16 2003.

Despite rumours surrounding the song's meaning, lead singer Justin Hawkins has refuted suggestions that the lyrics pertain to pubic lice or other sexually transmitted infections: "People have said it's about pubic lice, but that's obviously wrong because pubic lice don't grow on you, do they?" Hawkins has also commented on the song's "true" meaning: "A sweet lady woman that you will never fully fathom or understand, but you love her so much that after a while it doesn't matter." [Justin Hawkins interview with VH1]

The song is featured in the soundtrack to the film "School of Rock".
