Lyrics
(One, two, three, four)
(One, two, three, four)
(One, two, three, four)
Have I done my best here, or
Will I be here next year, or
Are these my best years yet?
Was looking forward to
Being important, but
I’m not important, yet
If you put this scene
On a movie screen
Is it called a happy end?
If the world gets me
Where I’m s’posed to be
Will I know I’ve made it, then?
It’s so hard
Can we skip to the good part?
(One, two, three, four)
(One, two, three, four)
If there’s a good part, then
I hope it’s not far, ’cause
I thought it’d be today
I napped on campus, and
I smoked at dances, but
It didn’t feel so great
If you put this scene
On a movie screen
Is it called a happy end?
If the world gets me
Where I’m s’posed to be
Will I know I’ve made it, then?
It’s so hard
So can we skip to the good part?
(One, two, three, four)
(One, two, three, four)
(So can we skip to the good part, to the good part, to the good part)
(One, two, three, four)
(One, two, three, four)
These things take time
Mom and dad, they have a good life
But what am I gonna do with mine?
These things take time
Mom and dad, they have a good life
But, what the hell am I gonna do with mine?
