What's My Age Again? Lyrics

I took her out, it was Friday night
I wore cologne to get the feeling right
We started making out and she took off my pants
But then I turned on the TV

And that's about the time that she walked away from me
Nobody likes you when you're 23
And are still more amused by TV shows
What the hell is ADD?
My friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?

Then later on, on the drive home
I called her mom from a pay phone
I said I was the cops
And your husband's in jail
This state looks down on sodomy

And that's about the time that bitch hung up on me
Nobody likes you when your 23
And are still more amused by prank phone calls
What the hell is caller ID?
My friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?

And that's about the time she walked away from me
Nobody likes you when your 23
And you still act like you're in Freshman year
What the hell is wrong with me?
My friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?

That's about the time she broke up with me
(Stay with me)
No one should take themselves so seriously
(Stay with me)
With many years ahead to fall in line
(Stay with me)
Why would you wish that on me?
(Stay with me)
I never want to act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?

What's my age again?

He says Please Stay Wendy because the song was originally titled "Peter Pan Complex". (Peter Pan never grew up, and this song is about Mark not growing up.) They later changed the name of the song to "What's My Age Again?" because they figured that a lot of people wouldn't understand it. Oh and before flaming my comment, look it up, you'll see that I'm right.

When It Gets To Around 1:49

You People Obviously Dont Know Who This Is About. If You Listen Closely You Will Hear Tom Then Mark Say "Please Stay Wendy" In The Backround . It Is About The Girl Mark Was In Love With, That Worked With Him At His Record Label, Unfortunately She Wasnt In Love With Him. Thats Also Who "WENDY Clear" is About Too.

where does he say "please stay wendy" i cant find where it is in the song.

Wow you're right, I think I did hear it. @mikethomas: Try listening closely around 1:51?

Not Valid

That's an interesting theory and I agreed at first but if you listen to this:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_PMNTfR5Yo It's clear that he's saying please stay WITH ME.

From what I can tell, the song is about not wanting to grow up, and the repercussions of not growing up. I can relate. Half the time, I'm serious, but the other half I act like a kid. Hey, it's fun, no one should ever wish me to grow up, stop telling me to, let time take its course and I will eventually turn out. No one should ever want to grow up.

My Opinion

i love this song but it scares me. ican see myself in a few years time being exactly the guy in this song, not being able to take anything seriously and having no direction. Hell i dont have any direction now and i cant see it changing :-s
