After years of expensive education, a car full of books and anticipation, I’m an expert on Shakespeare and that’s a hell of a lot, but the world don't need scholars as much as I thought. Maybe ill go travelling for a year finding myself or start a career. I could work for the poor though I’m hungry for fame we all seem so different but we're just the same. Maybe ill go to the gym, so i don't get fat, are things more easy with a tight six pack? Who knows the answers? Who do you trust? I can't event separate love from lust. Maybe I’ll move back home and pay off my loans, working nine to five answering phones. Don't make me live for my friday nights, drinking eight pints and getting in fights.
I don't want to get up, just let me lie in, leave me alone, I'm a twenty something. Maybe i'll just fall in love that could solve it all, philosophers’ say that that’s enough, there surely must be more.
Love ain’t the answer nor is work, the truth alludes me so much it hurts. But I’m still having fun and i guess that's the key, I’m a twenty something and ill keep being me.
I’m a twenty something. Let me lie in, Leave me alone. I’m a twenty something.
