I saw your photo on my phone when I was 18
Fresh out the shower and fresh onto the music scene
Smart and successful, highly impressionable was I then
And I was fine then
You seemed so gentlemanly, tender, sensitive, romantic
Your fast infatuation with me made my parents panic
Caught up in your head 'til I lay in your bed
A daydream
Is when I'm taking my first shot with you, in a dim lit room
We were on route to your friends' thirtieth birthday
"I love you"s whispered far too soon
How I look at you is the best thing in the worst way
But now I'm 20, and I'm not as fun
Hold it against me when I have opinions
If you're needing saving, then this won't get far
Don't date the teenager na, na, na, na, na
You won't go out with my young friends to clubs
We go to weddings, everyone is on drugs
If you need a baby who can drive your car
Don't date the teenager, na, na, na, na
We go to dinner to discuss your quarter-life crisis
Somehow I end up in tears, boy, you're full of surprises
You pay the check and then the two of us head home in silence
Now I feel bad for crying
But this isn't my first fight with you, in a dim lit room
We were on route to three kids and a divorce, right?
"I love you"s whispered far too soon
How I look at you these days is in a new light
'Cause now I'm 20, and you're not as fun
Hold it against me when I have opinions
If you're needing saving, then this won't get far
Don't date the teenager, na, na, na, na, na
You won't go out with my young friends to clubs
We go to weddings, everyone is on drugs
If you need a baby who can drive your car
Don't date the teenager, na, na, na, na
Don't date the teenager, na, na, na, na
Don't date the teenager, na, na, na, na, na
Don't date the teenager, na, na, na, na, na
I try recreating the earlier days
When singing your praises felt like telling the truth
Now I'm just ashamed, friends only drop your name when
So casually saying, "What the fuck are you gonna do?"
'Cause now I'm 20 and this isn't fun
Hold it against me when I have opinions
If you're needing saving, then this won't get far
Don't date the teenager, na, na, na, na, na
Don't date the teenager, na, na, na, na
Don't date the teenager, na, na, na, na, na
If you need a baby who can drive your car
Don't date the teenager, na, na, na, na
Fresh out the shower and fresh onto the music scene
Smart and successful, highly impressionable was I then
And I was fine then
You seemed so gentlemanly, tender, sensitive, romantic
Your fast infatuation with me made my parents panic
Caught up in your head 'til I lay in your bed
