lyrics:

we locked ourselves in the bathroom at the high school party
hiding from the cool kids who were drunk and ordinary
if we ran the world, we'd do it differently
so we made a pact to fight mediocrity
while everyone sleeps we'd escape this town
we'd take your mother's car, make something of ourselves
we'd cross the line
we'd break the barrier
rage against time
but you forgot

when we were ten we played pretend
to be mom and dad
one day it didn't end

saw you years later, you were looking good
waiting at the dry cleaners dropping off your suit
remember when we spent all night on the roof
we said we'd never stay in this neighbourhood
but you gotta buy a house
cus you're a grown man
you know what life's about
the investment plan
you gotta buy a car
to drive out from your home
to get to the store
to the rest of the world
you gotta get a wife
you gotta have a kid
get a lot of stuff
like all the cool folks did

when we were sixteen we had a dream
but you forgot
everybody does

you gotta go to work
to pay for car repairs
to pay for child support
to pay the bank

when you were twenty-one, you made a plan
i don't remember
how i got where i am
