昔は楽しかったっていう曲名でラストに「I don’t care when it is beer o'clock. Have a tea with me.」で締めるところが大人っぽくて好きです。
“'Used to be fun' is about becoming something that resembles a grown-up and how this process might be a bit of a struggle. Not only for the protagonist, but also his/her friends (more likely his friends;). It's about how good, old friends might get upset if one is missing more and more parties and always has to consider a partner or maybe even kids. The one with increased responsibilities might call this process 'growing-up', the others might just feel that person is becoming increasingly lame and boring. Both sides are probably right. Between us, the protagonist mentioned above is the writer of the song. Keeping party friends and family happy at the same time became increasingly difficult and some growing up was necessary. It wasn’t easy, but the new way of life is just as rewarding and it seems that most people, sooner or later, have to face that challenge.”
