We're Not Young: Fun. Song Inspires A Parody About Getting Older

At present, Fun.’s “We Are Young” is likely an anthem for those who are feeling young, carefree and immortal. Or it’s a “Stunt Anthem” for Chevy Sonic. I suppose it depends on the context in which you’re listening to it.

“Now I know that I’m fat. Shut up about that. I guess I’ll do elliptical. Maybe I can finally do that yoga class. But I probably won’t. HDTV. Gonna stay at home and watch Modern Family.”
Hey. Modern Family’s a good show.
