Twentysomething by Jamie Cullum
After (1)__________ of expensive education,
A car (2)________ of (3)__________ and anticipation,
I'm an (4)____________ on Shakespeare, and that's a hell of a lot,
But the world don't need scholars as much as I thought.
Maybe I'll go traveling for a year,
Finding myself, or (5)__________ a career.
I could (6)________ with the poor, though I'm hungry for fame.
We all (7)________ so different, but we're just the same.
Maybe I'll go to the gym, so I don't get fat.
Aren't things more easy with a tight six-pack?
Who knows the answers, who do you trust?
I can't (8)________ (9)________________ (10)________ from lust.
Maybe I'll (11)________ back home and pay off my loans,
working nine to five (12)__________________ phones.
Don't make me live for my (13)____________ nights,
drinking (14)__________ pints and getting in fights.
I don't want to get up, just let me lie in
leave me alone, I'm a twentysomething
Maybe I'll (15)________ fall in (16)________ --
That could solve it all.
Philosophers say (17)________ that's enough;
There surely must be more, ooh.
Love ain't the answer, nor is work.
The truth (18)____________ me, so (19)________ it hurts.
But I'm still (20)____________ fun, and I guess that the key;
I'm a (21)______________________________ and I'll keep bein' me.
I'm a twentysomething, let me lie in,
leave me alone, I'm a twentysomething
