One, two, three, four

One, two, three, four

Have I done my best here, or

Will I be here next year, or

Are these my best years yet?

Was looking forward to

Being important, but

I′m not important, yet

If you put this scene

On a movie screen

Is it called a happy end?

If the world gets me

Where I'm s′posed to be

Will I know I've made it then?

It's so hard

Can we skip to the good part?

One, two, three, four

One, two, three, four

If there′s a good part, then

I hope it′s not far, 'cause

I thought it′d be today

I napped on campus, and

I smoked at dances, but

It didn't feel so great

If you put this scene

On a movie screen

Is it called a happy end?

If the world gets me

Where I′m s'posed to be

Will I know I′ve made it then?

It's so hard

So can we skip to the good part?

One, two, three, four

One, two, three, four

(So can we skip to the good part)

(To the good part)

(To the good part)

One, two, three, four

One, two, three, four

These things take time

Mom and dad, they have a good life

But what am I gonna do with mine?

These things take time

Mom and dad, they have a good life

But, what the hell am I gonna do with mine?
