[Sequence: Funk Intro | Verse 1 | Pre-Chorus | Chorus | Verse 2 | Chorus | Rap Verse | Breakdown | Final Chorus | Outro] [Funk Intro | Bass and Guitar] [Verse 1] Friday night, fresh shirt, feeling pretty good. Walked in thinking maybe I'd meet somebody that I should. Saw some girls about my age, gave a smile, played it cool. They looked straight through me like I wasn't in the room. [Band Stop] Okay. Good start. [Beat Returns] Then a woman at the bar looked over, raised her glass. Forty-something, looking dangerous... And suddenly I'm getting asked— [Female Vocal] "You here alone?" [Male Vocal] Apparently! [Pre-Chorus] What is happening? What did I do? Girls my age don't even look when I walk through. But every woman with confidence tonight... Keeps looking over here like I'm exactly her type! [Chorus] WRONG AGE! RIGHT NIGHT! I'm looking left, but they're coming from the right! Girls my age don't know I'm alive... But the forty-plus crowd keeps buying me drinks tonight! I don't understand it! What am I doing right? I'm looking for somebody my age... But apparently I'm somebody else's type! [Post-Chorus] [Female Vocals] Hey, handsome! [Male Vocal] See?! That's what I'm talking about! [Verse 2] One said, "Honey, you're adorable." I said, "I'm twenty-five." She laughed so hard she nearly spilled her second glass of wine. Another one said, "Come sit down." I said, "I'm meeting friends." She smiled and said, "That's fine, sweetheart... You can meet 'em later then." [Band Stop] Ma'am. [Female Vocal] "Yes?" [Male Vocal] You're making this very difficult. [Female Vocal] "Good." [Beat Drop] [Chorus] WRONG AGE! RIGHT NIGHT! I'm looking left, but they're coming from the right! Girls my age don't know I'm alive... But the forty-plus crowd keeps finding me tonight! I don't understand it! What am I doing right? I'm looking for somebody my age... But apparently I'm somebody else's type! [Rap Verse | Beat and Bass Only] Yo— Walked in clean, fresh fade, new shoes, Thought tonight I had nothing to lose. Saw three girls my age, gave 'em my best smile, They checked their phones and kept walking down the aisle. Five minutes later, whole situation flipped, Woman twice my confidence put a hand on her hip. Said, "You're kinda cute." I said, "Thank you, ma'am." She said, "Don't call me ma'am." I said— YES, MA'AM. [Beat Stops] ... Damn it. [Beat Slams Back] My boys in the corner laughing at me, Saying, "Man, you've found your demographic accidentally!" I said, "Help me!" They said, "Brother, you're doing fine!" I said, "I'M TRYING TO MEET SOMEBODY TWENTY-FIVE!" [Breakdown | Handclaps and Bass] Twenty-five! [Backing Vocals] Not interested! Twenty-six! [Backing Vocals] Didn't see you! Twenty-seven! [Backing Vocals] Left you on read! Forty-two! [Female Vocal] "Hey, handsome." [Male Vocal] OH, COME ON! [Massive Beat Drop] [Final Chorus] WRONG AGE! RIGHT NIGHT! I quit pretending I understand my life! Girls my age still don't know I'm alive... But apparently somebody thinks I'm looking good tonight! Maybe I stop asking why the stars don't align. I came here looking for one thing... And found out I'm somebody else's type! [Female Gang Vocals] SOMEBODY'S TYPE! SOMEBODY'S TYPE! [Male Vocal] Just not the somebody I had in mind! [Outro | Funk Groove] [Female Voice] "So... You gonna ask me to dance?" [Male Vocal] How old are you? [Long Silence] [Female Voice] "Old enough to know you shouldn't ask that question." [Band Stops] [Male Vocal] ... I'm learning so much tonight. [Female Laugh] [Male Vocal] Okay. One dance. [Female Vocal] "That's better." [Funky Bass Outro] [End]
