America in Your 20’s

2 blonde girls in a tennis match And the one who hits a winner Gets an urn of ashes from her late mother And a car loan she can't pay From feeling cute with your gap teeth 'Til the last drunk calls you a field goal with pink cheeks And now you've lost any glitter that you once made Is the party over, Did tomorrow come too soon? Is that what getting older is, The more you know, the less you do Nothing as serious or as funny As America in your 20's 26 and an idiot Eating microwave pizza for dinner at least I've got a white priest and a 2012 class ring And though my heart is in Tennessee Everyone from my town Is either dead or they're married wow James says there they both mean the same thing Is the party over, Did tomorrow come to soon? Is this what get older is You wake up in your father's shoes It's gonna take your heart and your money It's America in your 20's Trust a boy who says he knows you want it and he'll be pull out conscious Nothing more patriotic than that Drive your civic alone to a clinic you and your morning sickness (they never taught this part in class) Nothing as serious or as funny Everybody hates me, everybody loves me It's kinda fucked to think that it's lucky to be in America in your 20's"
