lyrics

You gonna measure me up to see if I ft in?
I guess it's just high school all over again,
Where nerds in the choir play the guitar,
To let everyone know that they're gonna be stars,
I style my hair with two kinds of gel,
Instead I'll put on a polo and I'll wear a belt,
I don't see a difference, there's really no change,
You just wear your brother's clothes and that's pretty strange,
At least I own up to my, well, fruity tastes,
I don't avoid shaving to prove that I'm straight,
Maybe you don't, but that's not by choice,
Just like your square head and your girlish voice,
At least I go camping,
I go hunting,
In the snow?
With guns,
Well, that's one thing we share:
We're republicans,

[Chorus]
Mom says, "Boy, you're gonna be a lawyer",
So I've worked my hardest to avoid her,
Girls all want a boy who's a smooth talker,
Maybe I'll get that girl if I'm a doctor,
Guess that'll have to wait 'til I've learned how to talk to her,

Whatever happened to being a superhero?
Or a ninja?
Or an astronaut?
Or a cowboy?
A space cowboy!
Now I'm going to college, at least I think,
And sure it's exciting, but it's terrifying,
I'm gonna go to parties and drink spiked Kool-Aid,
Gonna get with the ladies and get myself good grades,
But all these jokes are just 'cause we're afraid,

[Chorus]

Do all the fires I start with my friends count as physics credit?
Does wading through this awkward silence count as social science?
If I put that flame in snuff would it be enough,
To make you say that I'm OK?
That I'll be everything or even anything at all?
But all these jokes are just so we can stall?

[Chorus]
