XARA: there goes my teenage life..sob-sob


Twentysomething - Jamie Cullum

AFTER YEARS of EXPENSIVE EDUCATION(6 thn mkn duit rakyat),
A CAR FULL of BOOKS(+kertas fotostet) and anticipation,
I’m an EXPERT on SHAKESPEARE(whom we know from India?) and that’s a hell of a lot,
but THE WORLD DON'T NEED SCHOLARS(they just need more Eng teacher!) as much as I thought.

Maybe I'LL GO TRAVELLING FOR A YEAR(in ur dream la!),
finding myself or START A CAREER(no choice!).
I could work for the poor though I’m hungry for fame
we all seem so different but we're just the same.

Maybe I'll GO to THE GYM, so I DON'T GET FAT(trlalu spanjang idop kat mktb!),
aren't things more easy with a tight six pack?
Who knows the answers? WHO DO YOU TRUST?(kwn2 pun la ni xleh caya sgt)
I CAN'T even SEPERATE LOVE FROM LUST(delima remaja).

Maybe I’ll MOVE BACK HOME(blom tentu lagi syg oi) and PAY OFF MY LOANS(like duh?),
working nine to five answering phones.
Don't make me live for my friday nights,
drinking eight pints and getting in fights.

I don't want to get up, just let me lie in,
leave me alone, I'm a twenty something.

Maybe I'll just FALL IN LOVE that could solve it all,
philosophers say that that’s enough,
THERE SURELY MUST BE MORE(absolutely darling, absolutely!)

LOVE AIN'T THE ANSWER NOR IS WORK(so?),
the truth eludes me so much it hurts.
But I’M STILL HAVING FUN and I guess THAT'S THE KEY("unwise action"),
I'm a twenty something and I'll keep being me.


I’m a twenty something.
Let me lie in, Leave me alone.
I’m a twenty something.
