|
Well, I don't hate my parents |
|
I don't get drunk just to spite them |
|
I got my own reasons to drink now |
|
I think I'll call my dad up and invite him! |
|
I can sleep in till noon any time I want |
|
Though there's not many days that I do |
|
Gotta get up and take on that world |
|
When you're an adult, it's no cliche, it's the truth |
|
'Cause I'm an adult now |
|
I'm an adult now |
|
I've got the problems of an adult |
|
On my head and on my shoulders |
|
I'm an adult now |
|
I can't even look at young girls anymore |
|
People will think I'm some kind of pervert |
|
Adult sex is either boring or dirty |
|
Young people, they can get away with murder |
|
I don't write songs about girls anymore |
|
I have to write songs about women |
|
No more boy meets girl, boy loses girl |
|
More like man tries to figure out what the Hell went wrong |
|
'Cause I'm an adult now |
|
I'm an adult now |
|
I got the problems of an adult now |
|
On my head and my libido |
|
I'm an adult now, I'm adult now |
|
I can't take any more illicit drugs |
|
I can't afford any artificial joy |
|
I'd sure look like a fool dead in a ditch somewhere |
|
With a mind full of chemicals |
|
Like some cheese-eating high school boy |
|
I'm an adult now |
|
I'm an adult now |
|
I've got the problems of an adult |
|
On my head and on my shoulders |
|
I'm an adult now |
|
Sometimes my head hurts and sometimes my stomach hurts |
|
And I guess it won't be long |
|
'Til I'm sitting in a room with a bunch |
|
Of people whose necks and backs are aching |
|
Whose sight and hearing's failing |
|
Who just can't seem to get it up |
|
Speaking of hearing, I can't take too much loud music |
|
I mean I like to play it, but I sure don't like the racket |
|
Noise, but I can't hear anything |
|
Just guitars screaming, screaming, screaming |
|
Some guy screaming in a leather jacket |
|
Whoaah! |
|
I'm an adult now |
|
I'm an adult now |
|
I've got the problems of an adult |
|
On my head and on my shoudlers |
|
I'm an adult now |
|
I'm an adult now |
|
I've got the problems of an adult |
|
On my head and my libido |
|
I'm an adult now |
|
(Chorus) |
