No Such Thing as Grownups
Unveiling the Absurdity: No Such Thing as Grownups
Lyrics
I tried I really really tried
I made a sincere effort, truly tried.
To give em the benefit of doubt
I attempted to give them the benefit of the doubt.
But now it sounds
However, now it appears
Like a whole different species
Like they belong to a completely different group or category.
When words come outta their mouth
Their spoken words seem incongruous or alien.
Books will be written
There will be extensive writings
On this so called mystery
About this purported mystery.
But now it's here and
Yet, now that it's present,
It's the worst fucking deal in history
It is considered the worst deal in history.
So now you're crying on my shoulder
Now, you're seeking comfort on my shoulder.
I'm searching for the strength
I am looking for the strength to endure.
There's no time to act like grownups
There's no time for behaving like adults.
Now we know there's no such thing
Now we understand there's no such thing.
You couldn't kill it if you wanted to
You couldn't destroy it even if you desired.
I couldn't stop it for the world
I couldn't prevent it for the entire world.
You couldn't kill it if you wanted to
You couldn't eliminate it even if you wished.
We can't stop this world
We can't halt this world.
Keep your nose and your history clean
Keep your reputation and personal background untarnished.
Avoid the state sales tax
Avoid paying state sales tax.
This'll all be yours someday and
All this will eventually be yours, but
Sorry you can't give it back
Unfortunately, you can't return it.
There's books unread on
There are unread books about
What we've done at last
What we've finally accomplished.
Stuff it all in an Amazon box
Place everything in an Amazon box
And throw it in the trash
And discard it in the trash.
