He was a football player of the 1st degree.
He was a lousy student, but they let him be.
You should have seen the girls swoon
When he came down the corridor
He couldn't see the future
When they wouldn't be his friends anymore.
10 years later he's just a bore.
Is there life after high school
When things are rearranged
We never learned the rule that nothing stays the same.
Is there life after high school
With all our values changed
Some of us were fooled by the social game.
She was the best looking girl at Central High.
She had boys wrapped 'round her finger,
She could make them cry.
But all she had was looks,
But we didn't know.
We couldn't see the future,
When she'd let herself go
She stands in the path where the lights are low.
Is there life after high school,
When things are rearranged
We never learned the rule that nothing stays the same.
Is there life after high school,
With all our values changed
Some of us were fooled by the social game.
He was a science student,
He got straight A's.
But to those of us who were KOOL,
Man he got no grade.
No one even noticed,
When he came walking into class.
We couldn't see the future
When the rest of us would barely pass.
Now he's in computers;
Always goes 1st class.
He's a charmer of the ladies;
A hero of the 80s.
And the rest of us life has barely passed.

When things are rearranged
We never learned the rule that nothing stays the same.
