I'm getting too old for this young man's game
As soon as i settle people change
Sort yourself out please
Sort yourself out please
So you come home
And look around your room
At your superman comic collection
"why can't i fly?", you say
And you think about
Where all of this is going
Why couldn't you be a hero?
Well, being a hero's easy in a way
And you're angry that
You've only got two words
That you ever type into google:
"free porn" and that's it, nothing else
And you're so sick of
Pathetically quitting smoking
'cause you're scared it'll dent your lifespan
Quicksand, that's all smoking is
You can't help yourself
And you're broke too
'cause you always waste your money
Like on that stupid mandolin
Still sitting in the corner opposite me
So you lay down
On your bed and try to sleep
But you can't even do that 'cause you've got
Some obsessive compulsive
Thing where you pray for your family
And you're running out of friends to lose
There's something wrong with you boy
You make them leave, you're harsh
So give up and give in to being human
Like you gave in to smoking
How you loved that rollie in your mouth at last
I'm getting too old for this young man's game
As soon as i settle people change
Sort yourself out please
Sort yourself out please
Sort yourself out please
Sort yourself out please
And you sit there
With cups of piss in your bedroom
'cause you figure you'll be gone soon
So you don't use the toilet anymore
And your mother
She's having a nervous breakdown
And the fault is all just yours
You call her names until she sleeps
"goodnight mum you're a whore"
And you're dreaming
Of marrying jessica whats-her-face
Well maybe you will and maybe you won't
But you've gotta deal with now, right now
And your brother
Yeah i can tell he hates you
'cause even on his birthday
You somehow managed to cause a row
You treat
The people that you meet
Just like you treat guitars:
You use them, be nice to them
Then forget them like r.e
And you're so mad
That when you leave the door
You turn into this other guy
And without him you're useless as can be
Sort yourself out please
I'm getting too old for this young man's game
As soon as i settle people change
Sort yourself out please
Sort yourself out please
Sort yourself out please
Sort yourself out please
Sort yourself out please
(this is god. i'm stuck in a barrel
I've been in here for 140 years
Help me.)
