| For the past 18 years, your life has been pretty smooth
|
| Let’s take a moment and reflect, on all you’ve had to do
|
| You’ve rolled outta bed, and strolled to the living room
|
| And watched Cartoon Network, while your mom made waffles for you
|
| Your laundry was magically clean, and your dad’s back pocket was an ATM machine
|
| Your life’s biggest worry was that to wear to the prom
|
| And your only regret was that incident with the stinkbomb
|
| Do you hear that subtle sound?
|
| (It's the sound of reality about to slap the taste out your mouth)
|
| Now you’re on your own
|
| You should be scared
|
| But we can tell you don’t car
|
| (Why don’t you care?)
|
| (You should be frightend)
|
| You’re young and now you’re free
|
| The world is your oyster
|
| We have no clue what that means
|
| But let us paint a picture of your future
|
| You’re gonna eat alotta Hot Pockets
|
| And you’re thinking that sounds great!
|
| Get back to us in 6 months, when you’ve had 378
|
| As soon as you move out
|
| You know what your parents are gonna do
|
| They’re gonna turn your bedroom into an excerise room
|
| That they never use
|
| (And you won’t use lockers in college)
|
| And this might be a total bummer
|
| There are no yearbooks either, you’ll actually have to say
|
| «Have a great summer!»
|
| Do you feel that gentle breeze?
|
| (It's the category 5 hurricane of adulthood about to hit you upside the head
|
| with a tree!)
|
| Now you’re on your own
|
| Don’t screw this up
|
| You’re on your own
|
| Good luck
|
| (You're gonna need it.) |
