30 |
| So, um… I’ve been working on this special now for six months. |
| And… |
| the whole time, I’ve had a… a goal in mind, which is: I wanted to finish |
| this thing before I turned 30… um, because the idea of… of turning 30 while |
| still in this fucking room, working on this thing alone, um… That just seemed. |
| . |
| I just wanted to avoid that. |
| So… And you might be thinking, «Well, |
| that’s fine. |
| You know, look at you. |
| You radiate such youth. |
| You must not be |
| turning 30 for years.» |
| And that’s very, uh, nice of you to say. |
| But the truth |
| is, um, I turn 30 in less than a minute. |
| So I’m just gonna sit here and enjoy… |
| uh, my twenties, and then get back to wor… k |
| Yay |
| I used to run for miles, I used to ride my bike |
| I used to wake up with a smile |
| And go to bed at night with a dream, ahh! |
| But now I’m turning thirty |
| No! |
| I used to be the young one, got used to meeting people |
| Who weren’t used to meeting someone who was born in 1990 |
| No way! |
| (Yeah, I was born in 1990) |
| Now I’m turning thirty |
| God, God damn it! |
| I’m (Turning thirty, turning thirty) |
| Turning (Turning thirty, turning thirty) |
| Thirty (Turning thirty, turning thirty) |
| I’m turning thirty (Turning thirty, turning thirty) |
| When he was twenty-seven, my granddad fought in Vietnam |
| When I was twenty-seven, I built a birdhouse with my mom |
| Oh, fuck, how am I thirty? |
| I used to make fun of the boomers; |
| in retrospect, a bit too much |
| Now all these fucking zoomers are telling me that I’m out of touch |
| Oh yeah? |
| Well, your fucking phones are poisoning your minds. |
| Okay? |
| So when you develop a dissociative mental disorder in your late twenties, |
| don’t come crawling back to m- |
| I’m (Turning thirty, turning thirty) |
| Turning (Turning thirty, turning thirty) |
| Thirty (Turning thirty, turning thirty) |
| I’m turning thirty (Turning thirty, turning thirty) |
| And now my stupid friends are having stupid children |
| My stupid friends are having stupid children |
| My stupid friends are having stupid children |
| My stupid friends are having stupid children |
| And now my stupid friends are having stupid children |
| My stupid friends are having stupid children |
| My stupid friends are having stupid children |
| Stupid, fucking ugly, boring children |
| It’s 2020, and I’m thirty, I’ll do another ten |
| 2030, I’ll be forty and kill myself then |
