Crayons & Chaos (The Adulting Anthem) Duet

[Intro] Once upon a time life made sense Then the bills showed up [Verse 1] I thought the world was magic and full of toys Saturday mornings were my joy Grown ups looked so wise and strong But they were guessing all along [Verse 2] Now I wake up tired every night and day My inbox fights me every way Laundry grows and never quits I want my childhood back a bit [Pre Chorus] Why did I rush to grow up fast Who knew the struggle always lasts Childhood slipped out of my hands Adulting was never in the plans [Chorus] Adulting sucks we want recess back Give us snacks give us naps bring our childhood back Bills and stress no thank you pass We miss cartoons and rolling in grass Adulting sucks bring the playground back Let us breathe let us laugh shake off this panic attack [Verse 3] Back when choosing crayons was the biggest fight Stickers ruled the playground right Candy felt like treasure gold Life was simple bright and bold [Verse 4] Now every choice feels heavy and unkind What is dinner fills my mind Groceries cost more every year Responsibility brings fear [Bridge] I want to build a pillow fort I need to pay my taxes first Let’s spend cash on silly things We cannot the car repair stings Let’s nap and dream of simple days I am too stressed to even try We are caught between the then and now Still we both just want to fly [Final Chorus] Adulting sucks we want recess back Give us joy give us laughs bring our childhood back Deadlines chase us not today We will run outside and throw our stress away Adulting sucks but we rise above With chaos humor and a lot of love [Outro] Growing up is rough enough Good thing we face it as us
