Lyrics for Grown-Ups
Hey, I'm so sorry for getting back to you so late I'm on my phone four hours a day but one reply just overwhelms (It's an ordeal!) Like that leakage that cursed me to call up a plumber Delayed that for a month until it ruined the kitchen floor It is such a bore to be born! It is such a bore to be born! Let's cross-reference our openings for the next quarter Weekends fill up! Will we find room for our rare get-togethers? (Let's have a poll!) The barren squares of the calendars are somewhat deceptive My last three weeks were hectic with depression and binge-watching It is such a bore to be born! It is such a bore to be born! But that's alright! Everyone's burned out! Each with their own flavour! So we'll just stay at home, yeah stay at home tonight The thing I've learned with age? (yeah?) Embrace your worst features! (right!) So let me stay at home, yeah stay at home tonight When was the last time? How did it all speed by? But we should totally, yeah, when work will slow down Cuz we are in charge We're the adults here Oh, how grown-up of us to do just as we please! Uh-oh! The last time you went to a party You realised you kinda missed going to parties But who's gonna take care of planning the parties? Well, not you, not now, obviously Yet, after the mandatory four days of recovery Because you stayed up late You'll wonder why you don't do that more often The thought will persist, you won't act upon it It is such a bore to be born! It is such a bore to be born! But that's alright! Everyone is tired! Ain't we like Sisyphus? So let's just stay at home yeah stay at home tonight Yeah we would go out (sure!) If not for our goblins (aww!) So let's just stay at home yeah stay at home tonight Remember those times? How did we change our minds? Yup, it's a take-out-doomscroll-self-care kind of night! Cuz we ain't got the time But we've got the means Oh, how grown-up of us to do just as we please! It is such a bore to be born! It is such a bore to be born! It is such a bore to be born! How grown-up of you
