Lyrics
I'm an adult
At least I think I am
I'm not sure
I just know I don't make enough money to survive
I can't afford food, water or gas
To get to work
So if I can't get to work
Then how do I make money
To get back to work?
It's fucking stupid
Everything is so expensive
I wish I was born in the 70's
When things were affordable
Minus the racism and abuse against women
I don't know how to do taxes
I don't know how credit scores work
I can't afford to fill my gas tank
If I'm lucky I can eat lunch
What the hell's a filibuster?
Why do rentals cost so much?
Streaming costs as much as cable
I work so much and barely get paid
I'm an adult
Because on my birth certificate
It says "born in 1992"
So in 2010, I became an adult
Now I'm about 30
But by the time this song comes out
I will be 30
Maybe 31
And I haven't done shit with my life
I failed out of college to go and do drugs
And drink a lot
And now I'm working again
But I don't have money
It's an uphill battle and my feet were cut off
I don't know how to do taxes
I don't know how credit scores work
I can't afford to fill my gas tank
If I'm lucky I can eat lunch
What the hell's a filibuster?
Why do rentals cost so much?
Streaming costs as much as cable
I work so much and barely get paid
I'm an adult
But that doesn't mean shit
Because the government or something
They did something wrong at some point in history
I'm not gonna look it up, fuck you
If you know the answer
You fucking go fuck yourself
How about that?
All I know is that something along the way got screwed up
And now my generation is fucked
But I don't really know why
But I also don't know what to look up on the internet
To find the answer to this stupid question
I don't know how to do taxes
I don't know how credit scores work
I can't afford to fill my gas tank
If I'm lucky I can eat lunch
What the hell's a filibuster?
Why do rentals cost so much?
Streaming costs as much as cable
I work so much and barely get paid
