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