The 30s are great-

You don´t need to pretend anymore

To like whatever you didn´t like at 20

Like eating ceviche or reading Kafka, for example.

 

Except for the lamentations in my head

And the biological clock- God, how I hate being a mortal!

The 3os are great

People are not as insecure anymore

And they´re more straightforward, too.

 

You can be odd and it´s cool

`Cause what is cool, really?

I wouldn´t know- never been cool

Always on the other side

The deeper the cut

The higher the heels.
