lyrics

You’re old enough to know that you’re too young to mess with me
When you complained about your sisters, I assumed that you meant siblings
Still we seem to get along, and there’s pub just up the street
So please stop staring at your phone
And show that bouncer some ID

Now there’s an empty coaster at the bar with me tonight
The girl that was supposed to sit there couldn’t get inside

But isn’t it so nice to know from the get-go, we’re gonna get nowhere
Isn’t it so nice to know from the get-go, we’re gonna get drinks alone

I’m old enough to know that I’m too young to mess with you
‘Cause you just bought yourself a home
I’m steeped in loans I got in grad school
You don’t like my kinda bars
You just drink your fancy wine
Well, I snuck in this PBR in case my flask starts running dry

And that’s one more empty coaster sitting flat atop the first
I thought I might get lucky, but I’m quite possibly cursed

Well, age is just a number
But numbers make a difference
And it’s nobody’s fault
It’s just the ether that we live in
Because almost all our dates
Will end in misplaced hope
But for us this time, at least it’s nice to….
(No)
