View the lyrics
You learn a couple things when you get to my age
Like friends don't lie
And it all tastes the same in the dark
When your vinyl and your coffee collection
Is a sign of the times
You're getting spiritually enlightened at 29

So, just give yourself a try
Won't you give yourself a try?
Won't you give yourself a try?
Won't you give?

I found a grey hair on one of my suits
Like context in a modern debate, I just took it out
The only apparatus required for happiness
Is your pain and fucking going outside
And getting STDs at 27 really isn't the vibe

Jane took her own life at 16
She was a kid who had the box tattooed on her arm
And I was 25 and afraid to go outside
A millennial that baby boomers like

Won't you give yourself a try?
Won't you give yourself a try?
Won't you give yourself a try?
Won't you give?

And what would you say to your younger self?
Growing a beard's quite hard
And whiskey never starts to taste nice
And you'll make a lot of money, and it's funny
'Cause you'll move somewhere sunny
And get addicted to drugs
And spend obscene amounts
On fucking seeds and beans online

And so, just give yourself a try
Won't you give yourself a try?
Won't you give yourself a try?
Won't you give?
Writer(s): Ross Macdonald, Adam Hann, George Daniel, Ian Curtis, Stephen Morris, Bernard Sumner, Peter Hook, Matthew Healy Lyrics powered by www.musixmatch.com
