It's the third of the month we forgot to pay the rent I hurried up and mailed it but forgot to put on a stamp I'll call and explain to the landlord you say "what if he's mad?" I think he'll probably understand when he was our age I'm sure he did stuff like that We are still young We are still young We are still so young People say we should get a house they say renting is for kids but looking at our paychecks there's no room for mortgages She buys lots of pretty clothes and I keep putting money in my car but when she dresses up and we go for a drive I guess that's who we really are We are still young We are still young We are still so young There's no food in the fridge we get in a fight about whose job that is for half the night Then at some point we start laughing we go out to eat forget to go shopping, come back home watch TV and fall asleep bills are piling up on the table dishes are filling the sink sometimes I worry we can't handle it all ah, but then I think We are still young We are still young We are still so young We are still young We are still young We are still so so It takes time to grow grow we are still so so young

Been eating drive through With all the traveling The car smells like french fries And clothes I forgot to bring in Coffee spilled everywhere I just let it soak in Siren behind me Missed a stop sign again I guess I haven't been taking very good care of myself Unaware of myself I haven't showered or shaved In a number of days Oh and it would be good for my health If I could picture myself With you Smoke alarm sounding Every meal I make Through these thin walls I can hear The neighbors complain The carpet is stained Holes in the plaster Being apart from you How am I not supposed to be a disaster You can probably tell that I Haven't been taking such good care Not been aware of myself I haven't showered or shaved In a number of days Oh but it would be good for my health If I could just picture myself With you Oh I haven't been taking good care of myself I've not been aware of myself I haven't showered or shaved In I don't know how many days Oh but it would be good for my health If I could picture myself With you

Ever since I got her phone number the other day I've been leaving messages on top of messages to say I'd like to see you again someday Every time She picks up there's someone on the other line But it's fine, I don't mind, I've got time She must have a whole lot going on How I dream Of telling her just what she does to me But I guess I just have to wait and see She must have a whole lot going on Now I'm sure She's working two jobs Taking care of her mom And doing all the things she needs to do Oh but I Wish she knew how much that I Just want to be with her Doesn't matter Doing laundry Going shopping Making food But here I wait In what you might call a pathetic state Waiting for her to call me night and day Ah, I guess she must just have a lot going on She must have a whole lot All I need is one shot now Oh man she must just really really have a whole lot Going on
