lyrics

Yearbook

My highschool yearbook has become an obituary page
Now I can’t remember what we talked about last night at this old age
But I’m still the same
Playin’ little league baseball all star games

My buddy Don died two weeks after postin’ ‘bout his kids on his facebook page
Kitty left this world way too young and way to soon
It was a shame
She was to blame
Smokin’ methamphetamines in the pourin’ rain

Chorus
Highschool Days, lingerin’ always in the backroom of your brain
How it used to be, drinkin’ beer and smokin’ weed
Momma was insane
But it ain’t the same
No it ain’t the same

Freddy was an addict by the time he went to college up in Maine
He took it one step further. Oxycontin and some whiskey was his thing
He was in pain
Sellin’ pills and buyin’ booze for all the highschool kids who lived just down the lane

Chorus
Highschool Days, lingerin’ always in the backroom of your brain
How it used to be, drinkin’ beer and smokin’ weed
Momma was insane
But it ain’t the same
No it ain’t the same

Billy was a gambler and he lived out west somewhere in the Utah hills
But he shot himself in Reno at a table after losin’ all his bills
But even still
I guess he couldn’t take it even though his final bet was against his will

Flippin’ through the pages thinkin’ ‘bout the time we partied at The Falls
Sneakin’ in the drive in in the back of Linda’s car and not get caught
It was a ball
Where does it go, the youth and all our fun?
It fades just like Monty Hall

Chorus
Highschool Days, lingerin’ always in the backroom of your brain
How it used to be, drinkin’ beer and smokin’ weed
Momma was insane
But it ain’t the same
No it ain’t the same
