Just Us Kids

I've had enough of this small town bullshit

I'm not stayin' in school

I'm makin' good dough workin' with my brother

Cleanin' out pools

I'm going out to California

And man it won't be long

As soon as I get my license

Color me gone

Oh knock it off Johnny

Man, your livin' in your head

You ain't even got a car

And those chicks don't believe a word ya said

But you're doin' all the talkin'

So I just keep quiet

And this'll probably go no where

But I can't blame ya for tryin'

It's just us kids hangin' round the park at night

Hangin' round 'neath the vapor light

We got no drugs and we got no guns

Not even botherin' anyone

I don't have to wear a necktie

I don't have to punch a clock

I started up a dot com company

And man it rocks

Won't you come with me down to Mexico

In the winter with some friends?

My divorce will be final

Along about then

Meanwhile I got a gram and a real good ride

And don't you know I hurt way down inside?

Just us kids in the parking lot

Out here givin' it all we got

We don't want to get old and die

And there ain't nothing we wouldn't try

Ya know we could really have it all

Our kid's gonna graduate next fall

I could take retirement in 10 years

It's a damn short movie

How'd we ever get here?

Just us kids hangin' out today

Watchin' our long hair turnin' gray

Not so skinny maybe not so free

Not so many as we used to be
