well grade school never meant that much to me
i started smokin at the age of 13
back of the class thats where wed hang around

but they could not bring us down
and now theyre on the run
little johnnys mad and hes got a gun

just kids having fun
you cant deny
no alibi

i saw you back when you were just like them
i know its true
[Chorus:]

and we all fall down together
ashes to ashes as we burn this $#&@er down
on the merry go round the kids are learning

yeah theres something wrong at the playground.

well high school was just a holding cell for me

with no freedom as we learn democracy
spent most of my days in the back lot
a cherry burning bright but a future thats not

and now were on the run
try not to think a lot and just keep on having fun
no responsibility

you cant deny
no alibi
you were just like them i saw you back then

i know its true

[Chorus]
