Bad Side Of 25

作词 : Patrick Stump

作曲 : Patrick Stump

You wake to grab your shovel

See your breath it's made of tar

It's a subzero archaeological dig to find that artifact of a car

It's a 1992

Corolla with a busted left tail light

But you're always reminded the oil one works right

And all the good old boys are playing bad new songs

On the country station while the city moves on

All the hot young things they don't age like wine

I'm on the bad side of 25

I'm on the bad side of 25

So you swivel out the driveway

Of this tundra you call home

And bumper car your way on back to work

It's a place you hate to know so well

And yet feel so unknown

So you hula the snow off your parka all alone

What I've seen might air supply your hard rock spine

I've lived long enough to see some good friends die

It's a dangerous time to be a friend of mine

I'm on the bad side of 25

I'm on the bad side of 25

Some people fade like evening

Some just never go away

But there's simply no place safer than the bank the day after the robbery

So you wake to grab the paper

Sip your coffee too much grind

You don't so much mind the aging

You just mind the getting wise

Mix two parts jack with two bloodshot eyes

And you still feel cheated when your buzz subsides

Put your poor old parents through some sleepless nights

Still on the good side...

Still on the good side...

How old will I be when

I try to freeze time

And my age degrades into a well worn lie

She looks 18 between you and I?

I'm on the bad side of 25

My line til

I slide by 35

Make that the bad side of 45

If you remember the

Berlin wall sing it

I'm on the bad side of 25

If you remember before

Chernobyl sing it

I'm on the bad side of 25

If you remember before

Mike Tyson was the champ

I'm on the bad side of 25

If you remember the

Super Bowl shuffle don't sing it

I'm on the bad side of 25
