about

For most of us, life hasn't exactly gone the way we might have planned it when we were teenagers - but maybe that's a good thing. "High School" is about being a little nostalgic for that time in our lives, while still being pretty glad that we never have to go back!

lyrics

VERSE 1
Jimmy was the star of the hometown team
Had the best right arm that you ever did see
Now he manages the local Dairy Queen
And he coaches on Saturdays

Becky was Miss Popularity
She was the girl that the girls all wanted to be
She’s on divorce number 2 and baby number 3
Her and Jimmy they used to date
And now they flirt at the soccer game, but

CHORUS
This ain’t high school no more
It’s real life for sure
Glory days and the small town drama
You can’t even go back if you wanna
This ain’t no PG-13
Quarterbacks and homecoming queens
But we’re doing all right on the outside of those swinging doors
This ain’t high school no more

VERSE 2
The only thing in the world we worried about
Was not getting caught when you’re makin’ out
On the orange-brown flower-patterned velour couch
In the basement at your mama’s house

Now it’s debt and taxes and politics
And the Maytag dryer’s been on the fritz
And the only chance you get to step out of it
Is once a month at the local bar
Where everybody knows who you are, no

CHORUS
This ain’t high school no more
It’s real life for sure
Glory days and the small town drama
You can’t even go back if you wanna
This ain’t no PG-13
Quarterbacks and homecoming queens
But we’re doing all right on the outside of those swinging doors
This ain’t high school no more

BRIDGE
My oh my, how time flies
They were the best and the worst days of our lives
Those memories, weall got’ em
But rewinding’s not an option, cause

CHORUS
This ain’t high school no more
It’s real life for sure
Glory days and the small town drama
Can’t even go back
Ain’t no PG-13
Quarterbacks and homecoming queens
But we’re doing all right on the outside of those swinging doors
This ain’t high school
This ain’t high school no more
