Comedy

(verse 1)

I don't want a time machine

I don't want to relive a scene

I just want to give my past self a hug

that poor kid that has to scheme and tug

a war just to get someone to play along

it shouldn't be that way

crave affection but forget about attention

because the fear you had about not finding it

comes true and it makes your adulthood askew

but that's okay, don't worry

I got your back, so you don't have to attack

and I'm fixing those problems

hold your head high, have no worries

you'll have all your stories

still left to tell

even if you walk through hell

(chorus)

even though you want to

don't dance with devils

even though it's easy to

don't roll your eyes like angels

the future ahead of you is filled with tragedy

the action fades but treat your life like a comedy

that anxiety you feel will melt away

listen to my advice, you can have it your way

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

the relationships a teen broke can be fixed

the feelings youth scrambles can be unmixed

the future's bright, but the fog makes it blurry

it's okay if you're not a success story

I promise after you've come into your own

days will be filled with laughs and pranks recorded on your phone

the things you love come and go

just like all good things must come to an end

it's still your destiny to bend

what you crave is security

it comes at the end of your 20s, stability

you may not be on a magazine

but you'll always be clean

(chorus)

even though you want to

don't dance with devils

even though it's easy to

don't roll your eyes like angels

the future ahead of you is filled with tragedy

the action fades but treat your life like a comedy

that anxiety you feel will melt away

listen to my advice, you can have it your way

(end chorus)

(bridge)

I think it's important to remember

your morals last January through December

don't let them crush your innocence and good heart

it's hard to see now because you're so different

but, kid, people will think you're a work of art

(chorus)

even though you want to

don't dance with devils

even though it's easy to

don't roll your eyes like angels

the future ahead of you is filled with tragedy

the action fades but treat your life like a comedy

that anxiety you feel will melt away

listen to my advice, you can have it your way

when it comes to friends

you better stay neutral

when it comes to family

tell them you love them all

believe it or not enemies can become allies

stay humble but be witty and wise

even though you want to

don't dance with devils

even though it's easy to

don't roll your eyes like angels

you'll find you're still wholesome

being yourself makes you awesome

the future ahead of you is filled with tragedy

the action fades but treat your life like a comedy

I hope you'll laugh and love all your life

(end chorus)
