lyrics

Face in the mirror at 23 ain't exactly who you thought you'd be
Your friends say it's better mum says it's worse, not sure if it's a blessing or a curse
You got pennies in your pocket dollars to pay, yeah it's in there now but is it gonna stay?
Is it your poetry, your pretty words you say? Is it a suit and a tie and a 9 to 5 day?
Oh...

Girl you gotta put your mind at ease, 'cause when you're shackled in the system you set yourself free.
You gotta get yourself settled and find a home. It's gonna mean more to you when you rent to own.

And life is a question with no answers. You try and slow it down but she's gonna run faster.
And everybody's gonna say which way to go. You got the pedal on fast but you're moving slow.
Yeah you're moving slow. Oh...

Well you feel a little different than before. They gave you all they had but you still want more.
You're gonna try and break free with what you've found. Oh but your mama keeps sayin' hunny keep your head down.
Yeah she says keep your head down keep your head down.

And love is a question with no answers. You try and slow it down but she's gonna run faster.
And everybody's gonna say which way to go. You got the pedal on fast but you're moving slow. Yeah you're moving slow. Oh...

This is real rock and roll.
