[Verse 1: Luke & Calum]
And I wish that I was eighteen to do all the things you read in a magazine
I’m, I’m not saying I want to be Charlie Sheen
She’s just a little bit older but I want to get to know her
But she said it’s already over, go

[Pre-Chorus: Calum]
So tell me what else can I do?
I bought my fake ID for you

[Chorus: All]
She told me to meet her there
I can’t afford the bus fare
I’m not old enough for her
I’m just waiting ‘til I’m eighteen
You got me waiting in a queue
For a bar I can’t get into
I’m not old enough for you
I’m just

[Interlude: Luke]
Los Angeles

[Verse 2: Calum & Michael]
Well I think she wants to get with me but she’s got a job in the city
She says that she’s always too busy
She’s got a naughty tattoo in a place that I want to get to
But my mom still drives me to school, what?

[Pre-Chorus: Luke]
So tell me what else can I do?
I bought my fake ID for you

[Chorus: All]
She told me to meet her there
I can’t afford the bus fare
I’m not old enough for her
I’m just waiting ‘til I’m eighteen
You got me waiting in a queue
For a bar I can’t get into
I’m not old enough for you
I’m just waiting ‘til I’m eighteen

[Bridge: Ashton, Luke & All]
Alright LA
In my bedroom thinking of ya
Your pictures in my private folder
I know one day that I will hold her
I’ll make my move when I get older
LA make some noise
I need everyone in this building to scream this with us, ready?
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey louder
Are you ready?

[Chorus: All]
She told me to meet her there
I can’t afford the bus fare
I’m not old enough for her
I’m just waiting ‘til I’m eighteen
You got me waiting in a queue
For a bar I can’t get into
I’m not old enough for you
I’m just waiting ‘til I’m eighteen

[Outro: Luke]
I’m so sick of waiting ‘til I’m eighteen
Los Angeles, how we feeling tonight?
