They tore my high school to the ground and

They tore my high school to the ground and 
put a new wing in the east lot 
On my old parking spot 
It stands reminding me of how 
I wish that i could travel back in time 
Change my state of mind 

So if you're still in your teens listen to me 

It's hard to see beyond these walls 
Of who (who) and who not to be 
Socially 
Maybe you're in you're out 
But in the end when all your hats are in the air 
Nobody's gonna care 

So fair the weight 
Freshmen hold on 
It's only four years long 
Then it's gone 
And the queen of the nerds and the king of the prom get a job 
Look at them now 
She's living her dreams while he sleeps with his crown 
So be cool, be hot, be weird 
It's just four years 

Next time you're walking through your school 
Take at who's surrounding you 
Or hounding you 
Cause it's all just castles in the sand 
When your tassel's on the left side of your head 
You're never going back 

So hope (?) 
It's only four years long 
Then it's gone 
And the king of the nerds and the queen of the prom get a job 
What did you know? 
He's a CEO and she answers his phone 
So be cool, be hot, be weird 
It's just four years 

And as for your grades I know they're important 
Everyone wants to be a wiz 
Cause all of it goes on permanent transcripts 
I just don't know where mine is 

So fair the weight 
Freshmen hold on cause every homecoming court moves on 
It's only four years long 
Then it's gone 
And the queen of the nerds and the king of the prom get a job 
Look at them now 
She's living her dreams while he sleeps with his crown 
So be cool, be hot, be weird oh 
So be hot, be wild, you're here oh 
Be cool, be hot, be weird 
It's just four years
