I took her out it was Friday night I wore cologne to get the feeling right We started making out and she took off my pants But then I turned on the TV And that’s about the time that she walked away from me Nobody likes you when you’re 23 And are still more amused by TV shows What the hell is ADD? My friends say I should act my age What’s my age again? What’s my age again?
Then later on, on the drive home I called her mom from a pay phone I said I was the cops And your husband’s in jail This state looks down on sodomy And that’s about the time that she hung up on me Nobody likes you when your 23 And are still more amused by prank phone calls What the hell is caller ID? My friends say I should act my age What’s my age again? What’s my age again?
And that’s about the time she walked away from me Nobody likes you when your 23 And you still act like you’re in Freshman year What the hell is wrong with me? My friends say I should act my age What’s my age again? What’s my age again? That’s about the time she broke up with me No one should take themselves so seriously With many years ahead to fall in line Why would you wish that on me? I never want to act my age What’s my age again?
What’s my age again?
It's alright / to tell me / what you think / about me I won't try / to argue / or hold it / against you I know that / you're leaving / you must have / your reasons The season / is calling / and your pictures / are falling down
The steps that / I retrace / the sad look / on your face The timing / and structure / did you hear / he fed her? A day late / a buck short / I'm writing / the report On losing / and failing / when I move / I'm flailing now
And it's happened once again I'll turn to a friend Someone that understands Sees through the master plan
But everybody's gone And I've been here for too long To face this on my own Well I guess this is growing up
Well I guess this is growing up
And maybe / I'll see you / at a movie / sneak preview You'll show up / and walk by / on the arm / of that guy And I'll smile / and you'll wave / we'll pretend / it's okay The charade / it won't last / when he's gone / I won't come back
And it'll happen once again You'll turn to a friend Someone that understands And sees through the master plan
But everybody's gone And you've been there for too long To face this on your own Well I guess this is growing up
Well, I guess this is growing up [4x] Well, I guess this is growing up
