What happened to the ol' guy? I miss his grey beard and wisdom he brought to the table as the only pseudo-liberal Texan.
Let's get the party started, the spamfest of +0s with lyrics no one actually reads, but they post anyway.
I'll start.
Jeremy Fisher - High School
Bubble Gum and house parties...
When you stole your parents rum
and tried to screw everything that could breathe...
Back in high school we didn't have a whole lot to do --
watch the world go by on television screen...
Said it's the 90's kids, that's way out, this is way in,
go beat each other up on the dance floor...
Told us drugs are no good, but now we smoked them
and liked'em so much we smoked a little more...
we liked them so much we smoked a little more..
Did I call your name
Did you hear me singing that song I wrote for you
You're so the same yet you're so different
I didn't recognize you
It's kinda hard with all that sexual confusion
sometimes you don't know if you're gay or straight.
But what's the difference, it's a wonderful delusion
most times you won't make it past second base.
I'm in a band, we kinda suck but we don't know it yet
and I don't care anyway.
Cause soon I'm gonna sell these drums,
pay my rent, support my kids,
and tell'em all about way back in daddy's day
I'll tell'em all about way back in Daddy's day
Did I call your name
did you hear me singing that song I wrote for you
you're so the same yet you're so different
I didn't recognize you
Some years later by a soda coolerator
in a corner store back in my home town...
this stranger smiles at me
said remember the class of '93
and for some reason it makes him look real proud.
After all the good times he said we had,
he looks at me scratched his head,
and asked me where the hell I ever went.
And the funny thing is that I never even knew him,
but he could have been any one of my high school friends
