Lyrics

[Verse 1: Taylor Swift] They tell you while you're young "Girls, go out and have your fun" Then they hunt and slay the ones who actually do it Criticize the way you fly When you're soaring through the sky Shoot you down and then they sigh And say, "She looks like she's been through it" [Pre-Chorus: Taylor Swift] Lord, what will become of me Once I've lost my novelty? [Chorus: Taylor Swift] I've had too much to drink tonight And I know it's sad, but this is what I think about And I wake up in the middle of the night It's like I can feel time moving How can a person know everythin' at eighteen But nothin' at twenty-two? And will you still want me When I'm nothing new? [Verse 2: Phoebe Bridgers] How long will it be cute, all this cryin' in my room? When you can't blame it on my youth And roll your eyes with affection And my cheeks are growing tired From turning red and faking smiles Are we only biding time 'til I lose your attention? [Pre-Chorus: Taylor Swift, Phoebe Bridgers] And someone else lights up the room (Ah) People love an ingénue (Ah) [Chorus: Phoebe Bridgers, Taylor Swift] I've had (I've had) too much to drink tonight How did I go from growin' up to breaking down? And I wake up (Wake up) in the middle of the night It's like I can feel time movin' How can a person know everything at eighteen But nothing at twenty-two? And will you still want me When I'm nothing new? [Bridge: Taylor Swift, Both, Phoebe Bridgers] I know someday I'm gonna meet her, it's a fever dream The kind of radiance you only have at seventeen She'll know the way and then she'll say she got the map from me I'll say I'm happy for her, then I'll cry myself to sleep Oh, woah, oh (Oh) Oh, woah, oh, woah, oh (Oh) [Chorus: Taylor Swift, Phoebe Bridgers, Both] I've had (I've had) too much to drink tonight But I wonder if they'll miss me once they drive me out I wake up (Wake up) in the middle of the night And I can feel time moving How can a person know everything at eighteen But nothing at twenty-two? And will you still want me Will you still want me Will you still want me When I'm nothing new?
