Because no one here is proud
Once lady-like, miss Katie White
Finds herself upside down
In the morning, I can tell
That something happened, you don't want to say
So blame the television,
College life so glamorous,
But you can't be
21 forever
No, you can't be
21 forever
Do yourself a favor, darling
Step down from that broken chair
The comfort that you're looking for is surely not up there
I know you want to know what happened
When you went away behind the scenes
It's harder than titanium,
But worth more than those diamond dreams
But you can't be
21 forever
No, you can't be
21 forever
And I know
All about bad weather
But you can't be 21 forever
Get it all, get it all,
Out of your system while you can
When you call, when you call,
I guarantee I'll understand
Do yourself a favor, darling
Step down from that broken chair
The comfort that you're looking for is surely not up there, oh no
But you can't be
21 forever
No, you can't be
21 forever
And I know
All about bad weather
But you can't be 21 forever
Maybe I'm smarter than you think,
But I know just what's happening,
A missed connection,
Or the beginning of hard times to come
As much as I want to know
Where you have been
I'd die to be oblivious,
Is it better to never know?
No, you can't be
21 forever
No, you can't be
21 forever
And I know
All about bad weather
But you can't be 21
No, you can't be
21 forever
No, you can't be
21 forever
And we may sound
Like a broken record
If you can't be 20
Then you can't be 21
No, you can't be
21 Forever.
