[Verse 1] Back of the school chipped paint throne Crushed can crown on a traffic cone Sharing stale chips and a cracked phone screen We’re the discount version of somebody’s dream You got straight A’s in skipping class I got good at making jokes that crash Guidance counselor said “find your path” We found the dumpster and just laughed [Chorus] We’re the behind the dumpster kids snacking on our feelings like it’s all-inclusive (yeah yeah) Laugh till we cry then we cry till we snicker, it’s confusing If growing up’s like this I might stay stuck in this parking lot bliss (woah) Sad little legends on a field trip to ruin and somehow we’re cool with it [Verse 2] Vape cloud halo over your head You preach “drop out” from a milk crate bed You said, “Life’s a test that I didn’t study” I said, “Same,” then tripped on my own hoodie Principal walks by we freeze like ghosts You wink at me with ketchup on toast He shakes his head like a rerun show We’re season six jokes that they won’t let go [Chorus] [Bridge] [low vocal register] Bell rings we don’t move Whole world in this groove [spoken, half-laughing] Got a backpack full of homework I’ll never touch Heart full of feelings I feel too much [whispered vocals] If this is the worst of it maybe we’re fine If this is the best of it hit rewind [crescendo] Stomp on the curb like a marching band Trash can throne our wonderland [Chorus]
