"Roaring 20s"

Broadway is black like a sinkhole

Everyone raced to the suburbs

And I'm on the rooftop with curious strangers

This is the oddest of summers

Maybe I'll medicate, maybe inebriate

Strange situations, I get anxious

Maybe I'll smile a bit, maybe the opposite

But pray that they don't call me thankless

My Tell-Tale Heart's a hammer in my chest

Cut me a silk tie tourniquet

This is my roaring, roaring 20s

I don't even know me

Roll me like a blunt 'cause I wanna go home

Roll me like a blunt 'cause I wanna go home

My roaring, roaring 20s

I don't even know me

Roll me like a blunt 'cause I wanna go home

Roll me like a blunt 'cause I wanna, I wanna go home

Oscars and Emmys and Grammys

Everyone here is a trophy

And I'm sipping bourbon

The future's uncertain

The past on the pavement below me

Maybe I'll elevate, maybe I'm second rate

So unaware of my status

Maybe I'm overjoyed, maybe I'm paranoid

Designer me up in straight jackets

My Tell-Tale Heart's a hammer in my chest

Cut me a silk tie tourniquet

This is my roaring, roaring 20s

I don't even know me

Roll me like a blunt 'cause I wanna go home

Roll me like a blunt 'cause I wanna go home

My roaring, roaring 20s

I don't even know me

Roll me like a blunt 'cause I wanna go home

Roll me like a blunt 'cause I wanna, I wanna go home

Hallucinations only mean that your brain is on fire

If it's "Lord of the Flies" in my mind tonight

I don't know if I will survive

Lighters up if you're feeling me

Fade to black if you're not mine

'Cause I just need a sign or a signal inside

This is my roaring, roaring 20s

I don't even know me

Roll me a blunt 'cause I wanna go home

Roll me a, roll me a blunt

This is my roaring, roaring 20s

I don't even know me

Roll me like a blunt 'cause I wanna go home

Roll me like a blunt 'cause I wanna, I wanna go home

Oh-woah

Oh-woah

I wanna go home
