The 24 Song
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy 24th birthday
Happy birthday to you
You're 24
You better be sure
Of where your life is going
It's time to bust that suit
Put on your fancy shoes
And do a lotta interviews
You wanna land that safe job
Gel your hair with a glob
And sit behind a desk
For this day and the rest
'Cause that's the way it goes
Get your finger outta your nose
You're 24 years old
You shouldn't have to be told
To stop staying staying up till 4
And no more sleeping on the floor
Hope you had a lotta fun
'Cause from here on out it's done
I'm 24
But I'm still unsure
Of where my life is going
Don't wanna waste away behind a desk my whole life
But I
Can't keep working jobs that fill up me with strife
And I
Have my plans,
But I feel them slipping through my hands
And most days feel the same
Wake up, school, work,
No change
The repetitions keep repeating
While my heart continues beating
Life can feel like an endlessly repeating chore
Is this really 24?
Where's the fun?
The traveling?
Where's my fucking adult money?
Hey man, happy birthday
Bro just leave me alone
Man, what's wrong with you?
I'm 24 dude
Man, what's wrong with that?
Isn't it obvious? I'm at a crossroads!
Man, what the fuck is a crossroads?
Come on Tony you know, a crossroads!
I either can play it safe working a desk job
break my back doing physical labor the rest of my life,
Or I can try following my dreams,
But risk failing miserably
Hmm, that's tough
Yeah
Well man, how do you feel?
How do I feel?
Yeah man really think about it, how you feeling right now?
Huh, well I guess I'm feeling like
I'm almost a quarter of a century old
Fucking scary and I really don't wanna be told
That I kinda should be outta college by now
And I can't keep stuffing my fat face like a cow
Also I sometimes get the feeling
I've reached my emotional ceiling
Meaning
Every future milestone
That's supposed to make me smile some
Could end up being just a giant fucking disappointing bore
So I guess this is 24!!!!
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy 24th birthday
Happy birthday to you
You're 24

Of where your life is going
