Ahead of the Game
There's seven billion people on this god forsaken planet
And I'm twenty nine years old and not in love
I've got a fairly vast collection of romantic comedies
And I'd like to share them all with somebody
We could watch them all at once
We could enjoy each others company while we fiddle with our phones
Discuss how work is going in the comfort of our homes
We could argue over politics when only one of us is stoned
Oh, how I really cannot wait to fall in love
While the world's still turning
I'll be the one who's burning
I'm keeping miles ahead of the game
While the world's still spinning
I'll be the one who's winning
I'm keeping miles ahead of the game
There's trillions of dollars on this godforsaken planet
And I'm standing up on stage begging for a beer
I wish I'd stuck it out and maybe finished studying economics
Because when you have a lot of money
You can buy a lot of beer
We could enjoy each others' company while we fiddle with our phones
In the restaurant where we always go to eat across the road
I guess I could admit that I should not have quit my job
But in the meantime could you pay for the beers?
While the world's still turning
I'll be the one who's burning
I'm keeping miles ahead of the game
While the world's still spinning
I'll be the one who's winning
I'm keeping miles ahead of the game
There's trillions of dollars on this godforsaken planet
And I'm standing up on stage begging for a beer
