[Verse 1]
It’s a pretty weird time to be 17-25
I guess I’m doin alright
If I just don’t think about the fact that the world’s on fire
I’m stuck between two generations
I survive on self deprecation and Postmates
And slow days
And vibes
[Pre-Hook]
Worse than perfect, better than okay
Someone asked what’s wrong with kids these days
[Hook]
Well we’re all depressed
And anxious and stressed
And pretty sure the world is ending
And I got great friends
But I’ve convinced myself
They’re just pretending to like me
Don’t wanna be alone
But I don’t wanna go out
And scrolling through my phone’s
Only stressin me out
Woah oh, sounds about right to me
[Chorus]
Half my friends are starting their families
Half still have a curfew
I’ve got friends who‘d like get married
Most would just prefer to mess around
I really gotta sleep
But I’m stayin up late
It’s a quarter after 3
I’m starting episode 8
Woah oh, that’s just what it’s like to be
Twenty somethin in 2019 Woah, woah
Twenty somethin in 2019 Woah, woah
[Verse 2]
There’s people poppin molly on a Monday just to pass the time
Tokin on Tuesday just to feel alright again
I know we should really know better
But oh well, bad decisions, good memories
I’m not really hungry but I’ll eat cuz I’m bored
And I don’t like the couch so I’ll just sit on the floor
And wonder why am I like this
We love an existential crisis
[Pre-Hook]
Not quite perfect, better than okay
Someone asked what’s wrong with kids these days
[Hook]
Well we’re all depressed
And anxious and stressed
And pretty sure the world is ending
And I got great friends
But I’ve convinced myself
They’re just pretending to like me
Don’t wanna be alone
But I don’t wanna go out
And scrolling through my phone’s
Only stressin me out
Woah oh, sounds about right to me
[Chorus]
Half my friends are starting their families
Half still have a curfew
I’ve got friends who‘d like get married
Most would just prefer to mess around
I really gotta sleep
But I’m stayin up late
It’s a quarter after 3
I’m starting episode 8
Woah oh, that’s just what it’s like to be
Twenty somethin in 2019 Woah, woah
Twenty somethin in 2019 Woah, woah
