Simple mid-life crisis song in which Mark & Tom realize their youth is firmly behind them. Blink-182 began as a San Diego-based punk band in the early 1990's, but did not achieve mainstream success until 1999's "Enema of the State." At the time, bassist Mark Hoppus was 27 years old, which often caught fans and critics by surprise due to the immaturity of their lyrics and simplicity of their songs. Mark and Tom are bewildered to still be writing and touring as Blink-182 at nearly 50 years old, and can't believe their childhood is now several decades behind them.
