Overthinker

I ain’t no morning person - I spend too much time in bed
I’m trying to forget and rest those traffic jams stuck in my head
Oh, I’m passing through my twenties quick and nothing seems to change, no
The older folk will smile and say, man, those were the days

Oh, yeah they’re telling me to make the most of these cos it’s all downhill, you know
I’ve been told these are the best days of my life

The days turn into weeks, turn into months, turn into years
The jackpot opportunity ain’t looking like it’s near
Sure, I’m an overthinker, I dig myself a six foot ditch
But that’s what you do when your purse ain’t saying much and your love life’s gone to shit

And yeah, they’re telling me to make the most of these cos it’s all downhill, you know
I’ve been told these are the best days of my life
Well it’s all dead end roads and low blows and all these locked up doors
I ain’t so sure if these are the best days of my life

Billie’s had a baby now and Marie will be a wife
And little old me? I’m no where near grown up, no
I’m just getting by
Well I wonder what it’s like

To have a pretty home and a handsome bloke and a decent salary?
Then maybe they’d be the best days of my life
Oh, yeah they’re telling me, yeah? Oh, they’re telling me, oh no
I’ve been told these are the best days of my life

Oh I’ve been told these are the best days of my life, yeah?
Oh, yeah, I’ve been told these are the best days of my life
