1, 2, 3! Happy birthday to you They sai: Welcome to the 27 club It's hard for us to do what we love It's easier just to pretend It's a race just to get to the end Then I don't really know where to start But I felt it that like a shock to my heart Sense of threat for what's to come But Someone told me this when I was Twenty-one Now I'm almost thirty Where the past two years go My mind is stuck at twenty-five Before the world went cold And they tell me to hurry up like I'm going out of date Cause no one wants to grow Cause I'm almost twenty eight Men and I'll show you all around There's an ex-essential crisis on your left And you're new best friend is your therapist So too young to truly understand But to old to be considered into mend It's all getting a little mad Where's the wisdom Where's the peace I was promised to succeed Now I'm almost thirty Where the past two years go My mind is stuck at twenty-five Before the world went cold And they tell me to hurry up like I'm going out of date Cause no one wants to grow And I wonder if the pressure ever stops To be effortless and everything And if the sense of self is worth the pain When you're yesterday's news Now I'm almost thirty Where the past two years go My mind is stuck at twenty-five Before the world went cold And they tell me to hurry up like I'm going out of date Cause no one wants to know and want to grow Cause I'm almost twenty eight They said welcome to the 27 club It's hard for us to do what we love It's easier just to pretend It's a race just to get to the end They said welcome to the 27 club It's hard for us to do what we love It's easier just to pretend Someone told me this when I was twenty-one
