So what are you waiting for?
Don't try to blow up, you're never gonna make it
It's time to grow up and learn how to fake it, uh
I know
I'm no genius
But when you say those things it makes me feel so dumb
So dumb

But if you ask me
I'm only 17
And no one has to hate me
But they carry on
As far as I can see
You can't unbury me
So why can't I just make this ditch my home, uh

So what am I waiting for?
The girls on the street don't smile at me
I mean, you'd think I wasn't cool before
I know, I know
I'm no genius
But I just want to sleep and sing my song
My song, too

If you ask me
I'm only 17
And no one has to hate me
Still they carry on
From what I can see
You can't unbury me
So I just want to make this ditch my home, uh
