| Every now and then, I wonder why I spend
|
| Time following the crowd
|
| They say time is valuable, so we spend it in school
|
| 'cause they tell us that’s how
|
| You build your career like we’re the ones who steer
|
| But I’m wasting my days
|
| I’d rather get a head start and listen to my heart
|
| But I’m afraid of change
|
| And I know I’m not the only one
|
| Who feels like they’re not where they belong
|
| Waiting to make the world my stage
|
| But I can’t because of my age
|
| It’s time to put the books away
|
| I don’t wanna stay in school, 'cause I’d be better off
|
| Putting in ten thousand hours, doing what I love
|
| No, I don’t wanna stay in school, 'cause I’d be better off
|
| Putting in ten thousand hours, doing what I love
|
| Oh, and if I stay, what difference will it make?
|
| It’s a shame degrees don’t take a couple days
|
| All the time I’ve lost, playing myself and not
|
| Sitting wondering what’s the opportunity cost?
|
| If I left, what if I fall off track?
|
| People telling me, «Make sure you got a fallback»
|
| It’s a risk, that I’m willing to take
|
| It could be the best mistake that I ever made
|
| I know I’m not the only one
|
| Who feels like they’re not where they belong
|
| Waiting to make the world my stage
|
| But I can’t because of my age
|
| It’s time to put the books away
|
| I don’t wanna stay in school, 'cause I’d be better off
|
| Putting in ten thousand hours, doing what I love
|
| No, I don’t wanna stay in school, 'cause I’d be better off
|
| Putting in ten thousand hours, doing what I love
|
| I don’t wanna stay in school, 'cause I’d be better off
|
| Putting in ten thousand hours, doing what I love
|
| No, I don’t wanna stay in school, 'cause I’d be better off
|
| Putting in ten thousand hours, doing what I love, oh
|
| I don’t wanna stay in school, 'cause I’d be better off
|
| Putting in ten thousand hours, doing what I love
|
| No, I don’t wanna stay in school, 'cause I’d be better off
|
| Putting in ten thousand hours, doing what I love
|
| Putting in ten thousand hours, doing what I love
|
| Putting in ten thousand hours, doing what I love
|
| Putting in ten thousand hours, doing what I love
|
| Putting in ten thousand hours, doing what I love |
