Jim van der Zee - Too Young to Fold lyrics

Artist: Jim van der Zee

album: Starting the Engine (Deluxe)


I thought that I'd be spending all my days
Painting flowers between sips of chardonnay
Well, I've got the drinking down
That's the only thing I've learnt from Claude Monet

I thought that I'd be a novelist one day
Go to Cuba, smoke cigars like Hemingway
Instead, I missed the boat
And now I'm watching all my drinks sink in the bay

I don't know where to begin
With a story untold
Too old to go all in and
Too young to fold
Too young to fold
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
Some of my best friends have second wives
And I haven't even started single life
Instead, I'm in my trailer
Listening to my daddy's 45

And If in the end, I reach the top
I'd probably be the age of Iggy Pop
Then again I should start right now
Can't eat or sleep, just start and never stop

I don't know where to begin
With a story untold
Too old to go all in and now
Too young to fold
Too young to fold
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la (say it now)
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la (too young to fold)
La-la-la-la-la-la-la (too old to go all in and)
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la (too young to fold)
La-la-la-la-la-la-la (don't you hear me?)
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la (Lord, I can't hear them anymore)
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
