Young and Reckless

I hope the whole world excuses me while I'm being young and reckless Going to bed with beautiful girls and not staying for breakfast Giving them the wrong number so they can't send a message I hope the world excuses me while I'm being young and reckless Girls, girls, girls, since I was 12 they are all I've cared about Waiting for that text that says "Come over my parents are out" I've played girls, Only cared about getting them into bed Nodding and agreeing even though I didn't listen to a word that they said Got a party to go to, but it's too early for me to show up When i get there, I'm going to drink till I throw up Then do it all over because I think I'm cool I'm just being young and reckless, I know I look a fool Tell the bartender mine is a double brandy with no mixer I'd rather enjoy the moment and make a memory so I don't have to take pictures Blonde or brunette? Which do I feel like leaving with? I just hope my ex doesn't find out who I'm sleeping with I've got some growing up to, but I've got to embrace being young I know a lot of people will think I'm being dumb I never had a childhood, so my excuse is its to be expected I hope the world excuses me while I'm being young and reckless
