AJR - The DJ Is Crying For Help

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Jack Met]
Everyone's laughin' at me
But not like they used to
The room's spinnin' all around me
But not like I'm used to

[Pre-Chorus: Jack Met]
Hired, hired
Can I get hired?
I got no skills except gettin' high
I'm tryin', tryin'
I can start Friday
You've wasted your life but thanks for applying

[Chorus: Jack Met]
Hey, now, hold up, we were fun as hell
I'm all grown up, but you couldn't tell
Now I don't know what to do with myself (Da da da da da da da)
You got older 'cause you good at life
I'm all seventeen at thirty-five
Now I don't know if there's anything else

[Post-Chorus: Jack Met, Marten Lieberman, Andy Sobelson, Alba Avoricani, Cat Capps, Rob Piccione, Ariel Gandler, Ezra Donellan, Dane Hagen & Chris Berry]
The DJ is cryin' for help (Oh-oh-oh)
The DJ is cryin' for help (Oh-oh-oh)
Don't know what to do with myself
Hey now, hold up, we were fun as hell
I'm all grown up, but you couldn't tell
Now I don't know what to do with myself
The DJ is crying for help

[Verse 2: Jack Met]
Everyone's trippin' on pills
But now they're prescribed too
And everyone's stackin' their bills
But not 'cause they like to

[Pre-Chorus: Jack Met]
Oh, hired, hired
Can I get hired?
Yeah, I fucked up, but I did it my way
Tryin', tryin'
I could start Friday
Gettin' a life's a little like dyin'

[Chorus: Jack Met]
Hey, now, hold up, we were fun as hell
I'm all grown up, but you couldn't tell
Now I don't know what to do with myself (Da da da da da da da)
You got older 'cause you're good at life
I'm all seventeen at thirty-five
Now I don't know if there's anything else

[Post-Chorus: Jack Met, Marten Lieberman, Andy Sobelson, Alba Avoricani, Cat Capps, Rob Piccione, Ariel Gandler, Ezra Donellan, Dane Hagen & Chris Berry, Jack Met, Marten Lieberman, Andy Sobelson, Alba Avoricani, Cat Capps, Rob Piccione, Ariel Gandler, Ezra Donellan, Dane Hagen & Chris Berry]
The DJ is cryin' for help (Drownin' me out)
The DJ is cryin' for help (Drownin' me out)
Don't know what to do with myself
Hey now, hold up, we were fun as hell
I'm all grown up, but you couldn't tell
Now I don't know what to do with myself
The DJ is cryin' for help
You got older 'cause you're good at life (Drownin' me out)
I'm all seventeen at thirty-five
Now I don't know if there's anything else
The DJ is crying for help

[Bridge: Jack Met]
And now I'm all (I'm all) alone (Alone)
Waitin' for the beat to drop
Be kind to me, be kind and wait it out
And now I'm all (I'm all) alone (Alone)
Waitin' 'til the party starts
Be kind to me, be kind and wait it out

[Outro: Jack Met]
And now I'm all alone
Waitin' 'til the party starts
