Adulting Is a Scam

Mom said: "You'll understand when you grow up,"
But there was a complete lie hidden in the mortgage form.
I put on a suit, I pay taxes into the void,
And instead of beer on Saturday, I chew a cabbage leaf on the fly.


Utility bills hit the kidneys like a Thai hooligan,
I thought I'd be Batman, but my pocket is empty.

Припев
Being an adult is a scam, a one hundred percent con!
Give me back my skateboard and game console in the mornings!
Where is my cartoon at seven zero zero? Where is the free food?
Adult life is just complete nonsense!


My back hurts from the chair, my knee aches from the rain,
The boss looks sideways, breeding a paranoiac.
I google symptoms, the internet promises the end,
And a lonely cucumber is getting bored in the fridge.


The bank sent spam to my email, offering a loan,
My inner teenager is screaming in despair.

Припев
Being an adult is a scam, a one hundred percent con!
Give me back my skateboard and game console in the mornings!
Where is my cartoon at seven zero zero? Where is the free food?
Adult life is just complete nonsense!


The pension fund laughs right in my face,
I invested in crypto, and now I'm sucking an egg (figuratively!).
The cat pooped right in the slipper, the printer chewed the cardboard,
I want to go back to childhood, where there was a cool boombox!



Припев
Being an adult is a scam, a one hundred percent con!
Give me back my skateboard and game console in the mornings!
Where is my cartoon at seven zero zero? Where is the free food?
Adult life is just complete nonsense!


Scam... Complete con... Fraud...
Call mom.
