17
You wake up one day
And you're thirty years late
And you still can't find a way
Like your grandma cleans the stains
Off a white Tshirt
You're skin these days
Is starting to age
And you can't keep up with all the things
Your mom puts on her wrinkle free face
Every night
But it must work
Speaking of work
I heard, I heard
That's what grown ups do and it's cool
But I'm still having
Dreams that I'm In high school
And I can't recall the location
To my locker or it's combination
Then I wake up thinking bout
How before covid
I almost got famous
Now it's only my mom
Who has all my songs on her playlist
It's crazy oh how life changes
People live decades see generations
And generations recycle trends
But they say we're different
Well I think we're made in the
Same image you see
And no matter my age I still feel seventeen
You wake up one day
Living in your own place
One night you try and go make
A baked potato in the microwave
And you set it on fire
Your dad always takes
Your trash on Fridays
Wonder if he feels the same
Going to high school football games
Even though he's retired
Speaking of tired
I had aspired
Wrote several hundred songs and by now
I thought I'd be singing them on bigger stages and to better crowds
When I can't play
A cover at the bar they glare
Just walked past my stage at the state fair
Is anyone aware
Covers were originals somewhere
But nowadays originality and talent get you nowhere
It's crazy oh how life changes
People live decades see generations
And generations recycle trends
But they say we're different
Well I think we're made in the
Same image you see
And no matter my age I still feel seventeen
We all wanna grow up
Just to never really feel we did
And our biggest inspiration now
Is who were were as a kid
Back the we would wonder how
Old we would be when we'd figure it out
But life's not to figure
Life's just to live and that's a fact
And those who have it all together
I figure just know how to act
It's crazy oh how life changes
People live decades see generations
And generations recycle trends
But they say we're different
Well I think we're made in the
Same image you see
And no matter my age I wanna be seventeen
No matter my age I still feel seventeen
No matter my age I still feel seventeen
And you're thirty years late
And you still can't find a way
Like your grandma cleans the stains
Off a white Tshirt
You're skin these days
Is starting to age
And you can't keep up with all the things
Your mom puts on her wrinkle free face
Every night
