My coffee is warm So I'll burn my tongue Mother warned me But I'm 18 So tired I am Of staying up all night I think about what a grown-up I am Driving my car and drinking beers Telling Mom to let me go Telling him never to do so But this morning I burned my tongue And I started to cry Nobody warned me I'm still 18 I'm tired Of being awake all night I think about how big my bed has gotten How to pay my bills and raise a child My Mom told me never to call And he rarely does anymore
