Bubble gum and house parties when you stole your parent's rum
And tried to screw everything that could breathe
Back in high school, we didn't have a whole lot to do
Watched the world go by on a television screen
Said "It's the nineties kids! That's way out, this is way in!
Go beat each other up on the dance floor"
Told us drugs were no good but then we smoked 'em
And liked 'em so much we smoked a little more
We liked 'em so much we smoked a little more
Did I call your name
Did you hear me singing that song I wrote for you?
You're so the same
But you're so different, I didn't recognize you
It's kinda hard with all that s**ual confusion
Sometimes you don't know if you're gay or straight
But what's the difference, it's a wonderful delusion
Most times you won't make it past second base
I'm in a band, we kinda suck
But we don't know it yet and I don't care anyway
'Cause I'm gonna sell these drums, pay my rent, support my kid
And tell him all about way back in daddy's day
I'll tell him all about way back in daddy's day
Did I call your name
Did you hear me singing that song I wrote for you?
You're so the same
But you're so different, I didn't recognize you
Some years later by a soda coolerator
In the corner store back in my hometown
this stranger smiles at me, he said remember the class of '93
And for some reason it makes him look real proud
After all the good times he said we had, he looks at me
Scratches his head and asks me where the hell I ever went
And the funny thing is that I never even knew him
But he could've been any one of my high school friends
Did I call your name
Did you hear me singing that song I wrote for you?
You're so the same
But you're so different, I didn't recognize you
