When I was young, they'd say I looked old,
Born under a lion with a faraway soul
I'd get asked for cigarettes when I never smoked,
Failing to fit in whenever I spoke
Guess I never stopped projecting like an imposter;
Twenty years later wherever I go
They read my energy and ask who's travelling with me,
Point out the cheap sushi
And it's on me I know if I feel undermined by every small act of kindness
She's just trying to be nice, but I conclude

She probably assumes that I'm twenty-two,
I've got the degree and the cliche tattoo
House-sharing in Balham when home's somewhere else,
I'm shooting tequila instead of B12
And being grown up is still a novelty to be figured out in my twenties
But darling, I'm thirty affirmative – you're getting the best of me

When you look young, you better watch out,
‘Cause there is a type who'll single you out,
He thinks that you're pliable sweet and reliable
Objectifiable, passive, grateful
And you're not trying to deceive anybody,
Didn't spend any money or cast any spell
And yet disrespect is often passed off as humour,
People are peculiar,
You don't have to wear it so well
Or feel undermined by every small act of kindness
“He's just trying to be nice!” but I can tell...


He probably assumes that I'm twenty-two,
I've got the degree and the cliche tattoo
House-sharing in Balham when home's somewhere else,
I'm shooting tequila instead of B12
And being grown up is still a novelty to be figured out in my twenties
But darling, I'm thirty affirmative – you're getting the best of me
You're getting the best of me.

When I was young, I wanted the world,
And while I was finding that lion-hearted girl
Made all the mistakes that lost souls do,
Fell off the path and made it back too
And being grown up is still a novelty,
I learned so much in my twenties
But thank God I'm thirty affirmative –
You're getting the best of me.
