lyrics

I’d like to say this makes me happy but I’m just not in the mood for fun and games, I’m feeling crappy and it’s not the way I planned
But please don’t judge me, at the risk of being rude, I’m just the same as normal but I just can’t stand this

They tell me age is just a state of mind
I thought by now I’d feel a little more alive
They tell me age is just a state of mind, oh my
Didn’t think I’d be like this at twenty-five

My friends are at the bar and we’re still waiting for a car to pick us up and take us dancing through the night
I’m struggling with money and you may well find it funny but I’m pretty sure we’ll end up in a fight
These girls are drunk again but not half as pissed as the men, I’ve been at work since nine and I just can’t be arsed with this farce
So please don’t get me involved, the only way our problem’s solved is to go home and sleep it off; it’ll see you right

They tell me age is just a state of mind
I thought by now I’d feel a little more alive
They tell me age is just a state of mind, oh my
Didn’t think I’d be like this at twenty-five

Making a scene seems to be your dream so take one for the team tonight my friend and keep it clean
You diagnosed yourself bipolar. Double Jack Daniels’ and cola running rings around your veins and pounding sugar through your brains
You split up with your cheating feller, rang the other girl to tell her that she’s a bitch and stole your man and now she’s begging for your blood
But she didn’t know it either and you say you don’t believe her. Come on, trust me, girl, it won’t do any good

They tell me age is just a state of mind
I thought by now I’d feel a little more alive
They tell me age is just a state of mind, oh my
Didn’t think I’d be like this at twenty-five
