Twentysomething

Jamie Cullum

Transposer:

{Intro:} After years of expensive education A car full of books and anticipation I’m an expert on Shakespeare and that’s a hell of a lot But the world don’t need scholars as much as I thought Solo: Maybe I’ll go travelling for a year Finding myself or start a career Could work the poor though I’m hungry for fame We all seem so different but we’re just the same Maybe I’ll go to the gym so I don’t get fat Aren’t things more easy with a tight six pack Who knows the answers who do you trust I can’t even seperate love from lust Maybe I’ll move back home and pay off my loans Working nine to five answering phones But don’t make me live for Friday nights Drinking eight pints and getting in fights Solo: I don’t want to get up just let me lie in Leave me alone I’m a twentysomething Maybe I’ll just fall in love That could solve it all Philosophers say that that’s enough There surely must be more Solo: Love ain’t the answer nor is work The truth elludes me so much it hurts But I’m still having fun and I guess that’s the key I’m a twentysomething and I’ll keep being me

La chanson évoque les doutes et les incertitudes de la vingtaine, après avoir suivi un parcours éducatif traditionnel. Le protagoniste réfléchit à la valeur de ses connaissances académiques face à un monde qui demande plus que des experts. Il se questionne sur sa direction dans la vie : voyage, carrière, amour ou même une simple vie ordinaire. Le contexte de cette période de vie est souvent marqué par la quête d'identité et la pression sociale, où chacun essaie de trouver sa place tout en se sentant parfois perdu. Entre la recherche de succès, la peur de l'échec et le désir d'amour, il partage une réalité qui résonne avec beaucoup de jeunes adultes.
