[Verse 1: Matty Sun, Francis Forever]

When did the clock start to sound like a Geiger counter

The ticking getting louder and louder

I'm not about it

(Slow Down!)

Everybodys saying "Get an outlet

But leave the fork at home, you big dummy!"

And get a nice job, save up all your money

And buy a fast car so you can pick up all the honeys

(Slow Down!)

I used to think clowns weren't funny

Now I look into the mirror

See my makeup's all runny


[Verse 2: Matty Sun]

I just found my first gray hair

And all my friends are more successful than me

(Slow down!)

Old man Matty too young to have a drink

Too old to dream that he could be the best of the cream of the crop

So I'm gonna drag this bag of loosе bones around

'Til my teeth topple like thеm tombstones

(Slow down!)

Doomed from the start

Cuz the room go cold every time he glide through

Boo!


[Spoken]

Where you wanna be when you grow up?

Hello?


[Chorus: Matty Sun, Frances Forever]

Used to drink my coffee black just to seem grown-up

Now I wanna turn the clocks back

And see the kettle call the pot wack

And see the pot call back to apologize

Just, just to apologize

Drink my coffee black just to seem grown-up

(My whole life)

Now I wanna turn the clocks back

And see the kettle call the pot wack

(Is just a lie)

And see the pot call back to apologize

Just, just to apologize

Drink my coffee black just to seem grown-up

(Oh, My whole life)

Now i wanna turn the clocks back

And see the kettle call the pot wack

(Is just a lie)

And see the pot call back to apologize

Just, just to apologize


[Verse 3: Frances Forever]

My whole life has been

Feeling like a specimen

Why can't I fit in

Wanna jump out of this skin

I'll build a rocket ship

And go to Venus


[Verse 4: Matty Sun]

I'm not glorious enough for my glory days

I feel chained by time like Flavor Flav

Tomorrow might find me grave

I guess those in glass houses shouldn't fuck with plagues

If it's a rocket, or a bird, or a plane

Or a Superman carrying Lois Lane

I'm thinking why not me?

Strapped in the laead Yeezy's

Take it easy at the bottom of the sea


[Chorus: Matty Sun, Frances Forever]

Drink my coffee black just to seem grown-up

(My whole life)

Now I wanna turn the clocks back

And see the kettle call the pot wack

(Is just a lie)

And see the pot call back to apologize

Just, just to apologize

Drink my coffee black just to seem grown-up

(Oh, My whole life)

Now I wanna turn the clocks back

And see the kettle call the pot wack

(Is just a lie)

And see the pot call back to apologize

Just, just to apologize


[Verse 5: Matty Sun, Frances Forever]

Tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock

Sick dog spits go off lost wristwatch

Still hear tick tock

Gets your mitts off

This lost kids thoughts tick tock pissed off

Wish wash wits talk shit to his botched

Self portrait, sit down kick kicks off

Frown no wish can stop these quick clocks

Tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock


[Outro: Frances Forever]

My whole life

Is just a lie

Oh, my whole life

Is just a lie

(Tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock)


[Spoken: Frances Forever, Matty Sun]

That was pretty good

Yea I think that's good
