Before I'm Thirty

You take me up a peg, take me down a peg
I don't care, I'll go as long as I can
Just as I am

I'll find another way, to block out the things you say
With that in mind, I'll keep on as long as I can
Just as I am

Faced with what could be a very long life
I don't wanna end up with ten kids and a wife
Before I'm thirty

When I say that things are bad, you shrug and say I'm mad
Fighting a life, when I could be secure with a girl
In a comfortable world

But I've got this thing you see, a fear of security
Counts out the things I dreamed of when I was a kid
Just like you did

Faced with what could be a very long life
I don't wanna end up with ten kids and a wife
Before I'm thirty

So, you take me up a peg, take me down a peg
I don't care, I'll go as long as I can
Just as I am

Faced with what could be a very long life
I don't wanna end up with ten kids and a wife
Before I'm thirty

With fortunes to follow and fame to achieve
I'll be damned if I jack it all and just leave
Before I'm thirty
