21

Down in the frozen food aisle
She bought some green giant peas
I dropped my grocery bags
That's when she looked up at me
Down on the blue tile floor
I saw her smirking at me
I guess she knew I was 16
Tell me why
Tell me why
That nothing really works until you're 21
Tell me why
Tell me why
That nothing really works until you're 21
Went to a party last week
Drove in my Dad's busted jeep
Got no respect at the door
Treated me like a dork
I tried to go the backway
Saw my big brother Ray
So I didn't have to pay
Tell me why
Tell me why
That nothing really works until you're 21
Tell me why
Tell me why
That nothing really works until you're 21
