Reelin’ In The Years Feed Me Jack

[Verse 1]
Your everlasting summer, you can see it fading fast
So you grab a piece of something that you think is gonna last
But you wouldn't know a diamond if you held it in your hand
The things you think are precious, I can understand

[Chorus]
Are you reelin' in the years?
Stowin' away the time?
Are you gatherin' at the tears?
Have you had enough of mine?
Are you reelin' in the years?
Stowin' away the time?
Are you gatherin' at the tears?
Have you had enough of—?

[Verse 2]
You were tellin' me you're a genius since you were seventeen
In all the time I've known you, I still don't know what you mean
Well, the weekend at the college didn't turn out like you planned
The things that pass for knowledge, I can understand

[Chorus]
Are you reelin' in the years?
Stowin' away the time?
Are you gatherin' at the tears?
Have you had enough of mine?
Are you reelin' in the years?
