High School by Jeremy Fisher
(x4)
bubble gum and house parties when you stole your parent’s rum
and tried to screw everything that could breathe
back in high school we didn’t have a whole lot to do
we watched the world go by on the 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 were no good but then we smoked 'em and liked 'em
so much that we smoked a little more
we liked 'em so much that we smoked a little more
then I call your name
did you hear me singin' that song that I wrote for you?
your so the same but your 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 illusion
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
cuz soon I’m gonna sell these drums, pay my rent, support my kid
and tell him all about way back in daddy's day
I’ll tell him all about way back in daddy's day
then I call your name
did you hear me singin' that song that I wrote for you?
your so the same but your 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, scratches his head
and asked me where the hell I have went
and the funny thing is that I never even knew him but he coulda been
any one of my high school friends
then I call your name
did you hear me singin' that song that I wrote for you?
your so the same but your so different
I didn't recognize you
then I call you name
singin' that song that I wrote for you
singin' that song I wrote for you
just singin' that song that I wrote for you
