The Johner Boys - 23 Lyrics

She comes out, high heels on, and curls in her hair
Lipstick, fake nails, and glitter everywhere
Well I just laugh, she's trying to act like a girl twice her age
But she don't know, she don't know the half of it

She's only 10, feeling 23
She's still got the world to see
I hope she takes her time
It's funny how it can seem
Forever, just how slowly the days go by
But in the blink of an eye, she'll be 23

Figured out what she's gonna be, and do with her degree
Tells me there's no time for boys, and that's okay with me
Well I just laugh cause she's on track, already making waves
But she don't know, she don't know the half of it

Cause she's 17, feeling 23
She's still got the world to see
I hope she takes her time
It's funny how it can seem
Forever just how slowly the days go by
But in the blink of an eye, she'll be 23

This is the youngest that you'll ever be
This is the youngest that you'll ever be
You've got the rest of your life to grow up
So live in the moment
You've got the rest of your life to grow up
So live right now

35 and she can see
It's better than she thought it'd be
Learned how to take her time
Got married and had a baby
Who's still got the world to see
The days go by, but in the blink of an eye

She's already 10, feeling 23
She's still got the world to see
I hope she takes her time
It's funny how it can seem
Forever, just how slowly the days go by
But in the blink of an eye, she'll be 23
She'll be 23
