When I wake up! When I wake in the morning, I smile to myself like I'm thankin' God And, no more folks like, "Jonathan, when you gonna grow up and get a job?" 'Cause I made that job, no, Steve that job's kept me hungry and foolish It's a cooler summer dive in like Kendrick and drink some rum in the pool, bitch Up here's where the roof fits the workaholic in the magic sun To the esky is empty, shit, what's life if you ain't havin fun? So forget your age and those walls, I'm burstin' through that maze On top of the tour bus in a teen wolf mask, surfin' USA And we got that baggage packed, happy gas, glasser traps Yes, I can dig it So I joke like tom on a josh, baskin' in these tours like a big kid It's my habitat, I can't leave the trees like an orangutang I'm a runnin' on air anchorman and I never land like bangarang Why don't you act, why don't you just act your age? Why don't you act, why don't you just act your age? Yo, I'm actin a fool No shame, I came, I shat in the pool Yeah, better pass that blunt I'm bout about it you can ask my mom She'll tell ya, I'm psycho mate, my ideas make your lightbulbs break I'll make it look so damn easy, when I rock that Borat mankini F*ck what they say, you don't miss your chance To eat chocolate cake, with your hands, you rock a bubble beard While you're takin a bath where a simple fart still makes you laugh like Hahahaha, blurp blurp, hahaha And then a big brown shark came Now I'm on the stage, actin' up Yeah, the bombs away while I grab my nuts You're livin it, like it's all the movies Still killin' shit on Call of Duty And I still think, I can move like the Matrix, real shit Shroomin' in Vegas, or when I play with my dogs Even right now while I'm makin this song So how's about it? Let's laugh til there's power outage That's all that I have to say F*ck them all and don't act your age, I'm makin pancakes Why don't you act, why don't you just act your age? Why don't you act, why don't you just act your age? They're always sayin' to me, they're always sayin' "Why don't you act, why don't you just act your age?" They're always sayin' to me, they're always sayin' "Why don't you act, why don't you just act your age?" They're always sayin' to me, they're always sayin' "Why don't you act, why don't you just act your age?" They're always sayin' to me, they're always sayin' "Why don't you act, why don't you just act your age?"
