Cutting Class

lyrics

Cutting Class

Taking a stand at the mini bar
Taking a stand at the mini bar
Cutting class, cutting class
Cutting class alone

Promises breaking the bank-promises filling the tank
Promises left you alone-promises threw you a bone
Alone alone alone alone alone
If only-if only alone
Alone alone alone alone

If only there were two of you
One for me and one for you
If only there were two of you
One for me and one for you
If only-if only alone

All these people will be
All these people will be your enemy
All these people will be
All these people will be your enemy

Being old is like being young but not as young today
And misery loves company especially when they pay
The world walks by indifferently
The years are thrown away
Being young is like being old but not as old today
I wanted to save the world
Now I just wanna save the world from me

Promises alone cutting class
If only there were two of you
One for me and one for you
If only-if only alone
Breaking the bank, filling the tank
Left you alone-threw you a bone

Being old is like being young but not as young today
And misery loves company especially when they pay
The world walks by indifferently
The years are thrown away
Being young is like being old but not as old today
I wanted to save the world
Now I just wanna save the world from me
