[Tom MacDonald - Getting Old lyrics]

You made it through everyday
You didn't think you could take it
Everybody got a different struggle and a
Different way they gotta face it
Every winner got one thing in common
Tryna solve a problem but they ain't quit
Rainy days will never go away but if
You don't complain you'll find greatness
Yeah we all been through it and it ain't fun
Growing up and tryna stay young
Missed the parties with the day-ones
Every weekend we would take drugs
Run the city till our legs numb
Fight anybody who would say something
Now we working for a pay stub at a lame job
Tryna save up
Your favorite denim just ain't fittin'
Like it usеd to
And instead of goin' clubbing you stay
Home and sit on YouTube (ayy)

Rеsponsibilities suck your electricity cuts
Swore that you'd always be young
You a kid inside but you look grown up

Ripped your pants bending over cleaning up
Had a drink then a hangover for months
Hurt your back when you farted
Getting old is retarded

Everybody knows one day we get old
Our hair will go gray, get aches in our bones
Pedal down, burnin' rubber
We ain't gettin' any younger
Everybody knows one day we get old
Be just like our folks, have kids of our own
We ain't gettin' any younger
And age is just a number

You made it through every night
Showed everyone what you made of
Defeated the demons that everyone else who
Had struggled was running away from
You fought and you faced all
The problems and pain
All the things that you should be afraid of
And did it with all of the grace from your
Momma and papa cause you are a brave one
(yuh)
We all been through a couple hard times
Climbing mountains with our arms tied
Fight the power of the dark side
Staying strong until the stars shine
No career and working part time
Drinking beer, a couple bar flies
Tank is empty but the car drives
Ate the burger but the card declined
Your favorite songs are called the
Oldies on the radio
It's Friday night but you're so freaking
Tired that you're staying home

Responsibilities suck your electricity cuts
Swore that you'd always be young
You a kid inside but you look grown up

Ripped your pants bending over cleaning up
Had a drink then a hangover for months
Hurt your back when you farted
Getting old is retarded

Everybody knows one day we get old
Our hair will go gray, get aches in our bones
Pedal down, burnin' rubber
We ain't gettin' any younger
Everybody knows one day we get old
Be just like our folks, have kids of our own
We ain't gettin' any younger
And age is just a number

Don't you dare sing "Happy Birthday" to me
Don't you dare
Call me old 'cause I'm from the streets
We don't get old, we only get doper
Better do what you're told
'Cause I'm a fucking adult
Alright? Just do it

Everybody knows one day we get old
Our hair will go gray, get aches in our bones
Pedal down, burnin' rubber
We ain't gettin' any younger
Everybody knows one day we get old
Be just like our folks, have kids of our own
We ain't gettin' any younger
And age is just a number
