lyrics

Well I’m hanging on barely by a thread
The whole worlds gone over my head
And it looks like, we’re sinking and we’re sinking fast
All my views are way too extreme
I’m too stuck living in my own pipe dream, oh well
I guess I’ll see how long it lasts

When I’m too young to worry ‘bout getting old
Chasing rainbows for their pot of gold
But I, never can find the end
Say I got to get straight I got to fit the mold
Don’t you worry ‘bout me I’m under control
Besides, it’s my time to spend

It’s another great day, it’s another great day, to waste away

All my friends they’ve got jobs to do
Say we can’t even hang out with you no more
Until we check in with out girlfriends plans
My advice to all the young bucks here
Is go to school year after year
And stay, as long as you can

Everybody wants a piece of that simple life
I wish it came that easy, because nothing ever will
No one’s knocking on my front door
Saying “hey kid” you’re coming with me
You’re the next big thing
