RHETT AND LINK lyrics : "The Graduation Song"

You're sitting here in your cap and gown
All your loved ones are just so proud
And we would love to inpire you

But someone needs to just give you the truth

For the past 18 years, your life's been pretty smooth

Let's take a moment and reflect on all you've had to do
You rolled out of bed and strolled to the living room
And watched Cartoon Network while your mom made waffles for you


Your laundry was magically clean
And your dad's back pocket was an ATM machine

Your life's biggest worry was what to wear to the prom
And your only regret was that incident with the stink bomb


Do you hear that subtle sound?
It's the sound of reality about to slap the taste out your mouth


Cause now you're on your own
Don't screw this up
You're on your own

Good luck
You're gonna need it


You're young and now you're free
The world is your oyster
We have no clue what that means

But let us paint a picture of your future

You're gonna eat a lot of Hot Pockets

And you're thinking "that sounds great!"
Well, get back to us in 6 months when you had 378


As soon as you move out
You know what your parents are gonna do
They're gonna turn your bedroom into an exercise room

That they never use

And you won't use lockers in college

And this might be a total bummer
There are no yearbooks either, you actually have to say
"Have a great summer"


Do you hear that knock knock knock?
That's personal responsibility about to put you in a headlock


Cause now you're on your own
You should be scared

But we can tell
You don't care
Why don't you care?

You should be frightened

Do you feel that gentle breeze?

It's the category 5 hurricane of adulthood about to hit you upside the head with a tree

Cause now you're on your own

Don't screw this up
You're on your own
Good luck

You're gonna need it
