she walked away from me.

she walked away from me. Nobody likes you when
you're twenty-three. And you still act you're in

My friends say I should act my age. What's my age again?
What's my age again?
Chorus
Thats about the time that she broke up with me.

wish down on me? I never want to act me age. What's
my age again? What's my age again? What's my age again?
