|
| Check the morning news team with their sassy mutton chops
|
| They reported on a local embezzlement scandal till the principal made them stop
|
| Hard core!
|
| Yeah, we weren’t cool

|
| Not all kids are athletes, some join band instead
|
| While you played all those gendered sports, they all got very co-ed
|
| Sports are overrated, they leave you red in the face
|
| While you were sliding into first, the band kids rounded third base
|
| Bass!
|
| We weren’t cool
|
| Back in high school
|

| Right over here are the arty Goths, a real tight-knit pack
|
| While you were wearing tank tops
|
| We were wearing black
|
| While you were wearing cargo shorts
|
| We were wearing black

|
| The biggest thing you missed while you were having a good time
|
| Is experiencing shame, misery, and depression for the very first time
|
| Now, you might find it hard that adulthood gets so real
|
| While the nerdy kids from high school are like, «I got this, no big deal!»
|
| Actually, my parents got divorced when I was 14, and it really destroyed me.
|
| I just acted super-confident to cover the unbearable flood of emotions I
|
| wasn’t prepared to handle. |
| I’m sorry I made fun of your ska band
|
| Thank you so much, Zack
|
| No one’s saying you weren’t fly
|
| But did poetry night make you cry?
|
| We learned to cry while you were popular
|
| Grew emotionally while you were popular
|
| You were cool while we were not
|
| But our massage circles were super-hot
|
| We massaged while you were popular
|
| And got massaged while you were popular |
