Teenagers Forever

Everybody always say The kids grow up too fast You'll understand when you're older But it's still not making sense I've been living in the basement Waiting for my chance to grow out of it But I can't We'll be teenagers forever But not forever young Always on the cusp of growing up But it's never quite enough I got acne and I'm awkward Now my knees hurt when I skateboard I can finally grow a mustache Worth a damn Still love Dungeons and Dragons In the basement with my friends But everybody's got commitments now It's getting hard to plan Every day, I'm playing dress up Go to work and play and pretend That I grew out of it But I can't We'll be teenagers forever But not forever young Always on the cusp of growing up But it's never quite enough When do I start liking golf? When does college start paying off? When am I done dreaming Of what I'll be when I grow up (teenagers forever) I'll never afford a backyard or a kid The kind of life I grew up with (teenagers forever) In the cold suburbs of Minnesota Making loose ends meet (teenagers forever) All the money's locked up tight Behind another trust fund kid (teenagers forever) Out of sight, out of mind Out of opportunities I wouldn't call it purgatory But it might as well be (Teenagers forever) Teenagers forever (Teenagers forever) Teenagers forever (Teenagers forever) Teenagers forever
