HE'S STILL DRIVING
THAT NINETEEN
SEVENTY HAND ME
DOWN TRUCK
HE'S STILL
WEARING THAT RED
AND BLACK JERSEY
WAITING FOR THE
BAND TO START UP
HE'S STILL SHOWING
UP TWENTY LATE
FINDING HEARTS AND
RULES TO BREAK
WHY WOULD HE
WANNA CHANGE WHEN
EVERY MEMORY
STILL BOWS TO HIM
BUT THIS AIN'T
HIGH SCHOOL
WHERE ALL YOU
CARE ABOUT IS IF THE
PRETTY CHEERLEADER
THINKS YOU'RE COOL
SEE HER FRIDAY
TAKE HER OUT AFTER
THE FOOTBALL GAME
'CAUSE IT'S FIVE
YEARS LATER AND
YOU CAN'T GET OFF
OF THE ELEVATOR
THAT'S GOING UP
'CAUSE YOU'RE
GROWING UP AND THE
WORLD GETS CRUEL
WHEN YOU'RE STILL
LIVING IN HIGH SCHOOL
HE'S STILL CALLING
THAT FIRST LOVE
FIRST TIME PRETTY
EYED BLONDE
AND SHE'S STILL
LETTING IT RING
'CAUSE HIS RING ISN'T
WHAT SHE WANTS
'CAUSE SHE
TRADED IN PROM
QUEEN FOR A BIG
CITY DREAM
AND A SLATE THAT'S
CLEAN BUT YOUR HEART
JUST DON'T GET IT
AND THAT'S WHY YOU
CAN'T FORGET IT
'CAUSE YOU'RE LIVING
LIKE YOU'RE SEVENTEEN
BUT THIS AIN'T
HIGH SCHOOL
WHERE ALL YOU
CARE ABOUT IS IF THE
PRETTY CHEERLEADER
THINKS YOU'RE COOL
SEE HER FRIDAY
TAKE HER OUT AFTER
THE FOOTBALL GAME
'CAUSE IT'S FIVE
YEARS LATER AND
YOU CAN'T GET OFF
OF THE ELEVATOR
THAT'S GOING UP
'CAUSE YOU'RE
GROWING UP AND THE
WORLD GETS CRUEL
WHEN YOU'RE STILL
LIVING IN THE HALLWAYS
WHERE EVERYBODY
STOPPED AND STARED
AND CARED AND
KNEW YOUR NAME
'CAUSE THIS IS
THE REAL WORLD
THAT DON'T KNOW
YOU LIKE THAT
YOU CAN REMEMBER
BUT YOU CAN'T GO BACK
TO HIGH SCHOOL
WHERE ALL YOU
CARE ABOUT IS IF THE
PRETTY CHEERLEADER
THINKS YOU'RE COOL
SEE HER FRIDAY AND
TAKE HER OUT AFTER
THE FOOTBALL GAME
'CAUSE IT'S FIVE
YEARS LATER AND
YOU CAN'T GET OFF
OF THE ELEVATOR
THAT'S GOING UP
'CAUSE YOU'RE
GROWING UP AND THE
WORLD GETS CRUEL
WHEN YOU'RE STILL
LIVING IN HIGH SCHOOL
WHEN YOU'RE
STILL LIVING IN IT
FIVE YEARS LATER
OH YEAH OH YEAH
HE'S STILL CALLING
THAT FIRST LOVE
FIRST TIME
AND HATES THAT
HE SAID GOODBYE
WHEN SHE WENT ON
WITH HER LIFE
HE'S STILL DRIVING
THE SAME OLD BACK
ROADS WONDERING
WHEN HE GOT SO OLD
WHERE DID HIS LIFE
GO OH BUT HE KNOWS
OH HE KNOWS

THAT THIS AIN'T HIGH
SCHOOL OH
