School has always been the same,
Fighting without fear or shame
For those of us who've been here long,
Stand up now, proud and strong...
Grades don't seem to mean a thing,
When your life hangs by a string
Working hard for a lower wage
Feeling trapped inside a cage
You and me, we couldn't be,
What we were never told to be
Our parents only wondered why
Why we never thought to try
Or else its do or die
Now when it's all been said and done,
When we all have had our fun
Sun and friends have gone away,
The future's the only thing that stays
Adulthood is overrated,
For our time it's compensated
Company is so hard to find
When no-one is your kind
You and me, we couldn't be,
What we were never told to be
Our parents only wondered why
Why we never thought to try
Or else its do or die
Can't they see this is all we want to be?
Can't they see this is all we want to be?
Can't they see this is all we want to be?
Can't they see this is all we want to be?
Can't they see this is all we want to be?
Can't they see this is all we want to be?
Can't they see this is all we want to be?
Can't they see this is all we want to be?
You and me, we couldn't be,
What we were never told to be
Our parents only wondered why
Why we never thought to try
Or else its do or die
This time it's do or die
