Lyrics

When did the clock start to sound like a Geiger counter
The ticking getting louder and louder
I'm not about it
(Slow Down!)
Everybodys saying "Get an outlet
But leave the fork at home, you big dummy!"
And get a nice job, save up all your money
And buy a fast car so you can pick up all the honeys
(Slow Down!)
I used to think clowns weren't funny
Now I look into the mirror
See my makeup's all runny
I just found my first gray hair
And all my friends are more successful than me
(Slow down!)
Old man Matty too young to have a drink
Too old to dream that he could be the best of the cream of the crop
So I'm gonna drag this bag of loose bones around
'Til my teeth topple like them tombstones
(Slow down!)
Doomed from the start
Cuz the room go cold every time he glide through
Boo!
Where you wanna be when you grow up?
Hello?
Used to drink my coffee black just to seem grown-up
Now I wanna turn the clocks back
And see the kettle call the pot wack
And see the pot call back to apologize
Just, just to apologize
Drink my coffee black just to seem grown-up
(My whole life)
Now I wanna turn the clocks back
And see the kettle call the pot wack
(Is just a lie)
And see the pot call back to apologize
Just, just to apologize
Drink my coffee black just to seem grown-up
(Oh, My whole life)
Now i wanna turn the clocks back
And see the kettle call the pot wack
(Is just a lie)
And see the pot call back to apologize
Just, just to apologize
My whole life has been
Feeling like a specimen
Why can't I fit in
Wanna jump out of this skin
I'll build a rocket ship
And go to Venus
I'm not glorious enough for my glory days
I feel chained by time like Flavor Flav
Tomorrow might find me grave
I guess those in glass houses shouldn't fuck with plagues
If it's a rocket, or a bird, or a plane
Or a Superman carrying Lois Lane
I'm thinking why not me?
Strapped in the laead Yeezy's
Take it easy at the bottom of the sea
Drink my coffee black just to seem grown-up
(My whole life)
Now I wanna turn the clocks back
And see the kettle call the pot wack
(Is just a lie)
And see the pot call back to apologize
Just, just to apologize
Drink my coffee black just to seem grown-up
(Oh, My whole life)
Now I wanna turn the clocks back
And see the kettle call the pot wack
(Is just a lie)
And see the pot call back to apologize
Just, just to apologize
Tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock
Sick dog spits go off lost wristwatch
Still hear tick tock
Gets your mitts off
This lost kids thoughts tick tock pissed off
Wish wash wits talk shit to his botched
Self portrait, sit down kick kicks off
Frown no wish can stop these quick clocks
Tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock
My whole life
Is just a lie
Oh, my whole life
Is just a lie
(Tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock)
That was pretty good
Yea I think that's good
