[Verse 1]
I've been down countless halls
And once you've seen one, it's like you've seen 'em all

No more second guesses, I've had enough

Baby, when I'm 30, I'll laugh about how dumb it felt
Baby, when I'm 30, I'll laugh it out
And oh god, it's not funny, it's not funny, it's not funny
But I know we can laugh it out
