(Na na na na) (Na na na na oh) (Na na na na) (Na na na na oh) Hey kid, what's that look in your eye? You graduated with no way to survive No direction, no teacher to tell Four years later, you still wait for the bell (What the hell?) And I know (I know) You had your shot and you missed (So close) No lecture prepares you for this (No, no) You're getting too old to wear clothes from 1973 At the high school burnout scene Na na na na Na na na na oh Na na na na The high school burnout scene Na na na na Na na na na oh Na na na na The high school burnout scene You were king of the hill (Of the hill) Top of the heat But you're not in the classroom You're alone in the street Your ship set sail, and it's sinking No wonder we all started drinking Hey kid, it's dead-end's meet That's just enough to keep you off of the street You're overworked and halfway to broke Ain't no wonder you moved back with your folks And I know (I know) You always played by the rules But kings'll be crowned by the fools You're getting too old to wear clothes you bought in 2013 At the high school burnout scene Na na na na Na na na na oh Na na na na The high school burnout scene Na na na na Na na na na oh Na na na na The high school burnout scene You were king of the hill (of the hill) Top of the class (you got class) You get a bad deal And then you're back on your ass Your ship's coming in on fire No wonder you couldn't get hired Cause these streets don't hold nobody's hand You get what you take when you live off the land The change don't come for the working man (No, ma'am) And rich boy doesn't give a damn (Oh oh oh) When you gonna understand Yeah, yeah, yeah Hey kid, what's that look in your eye? Is little baby gonna break down and cry? This ain't the end, just a hell of a ride It's a living till you kill to survive And I know (I know) You always gave it your best (Your best) But you failed your final test (God bless) You're getting too old to wear clothes from 2017 (Oh woah) This city's burning out from nine to five The office conversation's gonna eat you alive You're getting too old to be told: Always follow your dreams At the high school burnout scene Na na na na Na na na na oh Na na na na (The high school burnout scene) You'll call me a liar But I know the truth It happened to me It could happen to you So, pull up a chair We're all in this mess They said we were special But we're just like the rest Or maybe we're worse We believed in a lie You work like a dog Till you quit or you die At least you could say that you tried I wish I could say that I tried (Ay ay ay) (Na na na na) (Na na na na oh) (Na na na na) (The high school burnout scene) (Na na na na) (Na na na na oh) (Na na na na) The high school burnout The washed-up turnout The dead man walking with his head hung low down It's the high school burnout scene
