High School never ends

I just heard this song on the radio:

Four years you think for sure
That’s all you've got to endure
All the total dicks
All the stuck up chicks
So superficial, so immature
Then when you graduate
You take a look around and you say HEY WAIT!
This is the same as where I just came from
I thought it was over
Aw that’s just great

The whole damn world is just as obsessed
With who‘s the best dressed and who‘s having sex
Who‘s got the money, who gets the honeys
Who‘s kinda cute and who‘s just a mess
And you still don’t have the right look
And you don’t have the right friends
Nothing changes but the faces, the names, and the trends
High school never ends

Check out the popular kids
You’ll never guess what Jessica did
How did Mary Kate lose all that weight
And Katie had a baby so I guess Tom’s straight
And the only thing that matters
Is climbing up that social ladder
Still care about your hair and the car you drive
Doesn’t matter if you’re sixteen or thirty-five

Reese Witherspoon,
She’s the prom queen
Bill Gates,
Captain of the chess team
Jack Black, the clown
Brad Pitt, the quarterback
Seen it all before
I want my money back!!

The whole damn world is just as obsessed
With who’s the best dressed and who’s having sex
Who’s in the club and who’s on the drugs
Who’s throwing up before they digest
And you still don’t have the right look
And you don’t have the right friends
And you still listen to the same shit you did back then
High school never ends

High school never ends

The whole damn world is just as obsessed
With who‘s the best dressed and who‘s having sex
Who‘s got the money, who gets the honeys
Who‘s kinda cute and who‘s just a mess
And I still don’t have the right look
And I still have the same three friends
And I’m pretty much the same as I was back then
High school never ends

High school never ends

High school never ends

High school never ends

Here we go again


How true do you think this is? Any examples?

It can be true. When I went back to school,the majority were 18-25 year old girls. Some were mature,some acted like they were still in high school. I think I chose to hang with immature adults then yes it would be like high school. Since I am still finding out about myself at 36 I find myself wanting to be around people who are more grown up lol.....Ok that really didn't make much since. neutral

All of it's true. Hell, even here on the Org. You have the popular kids and the nerds. You have people who like nothing better than to sit around talking about people or poking fun at them. Life is high school.

I think we're all still finding out about ourselves. That will continue for the rest of our lives, and it's mostly not a bad thing. nod
I think it's too bad that all the shallow behaviour still remains too though. People pidgeonholing each other, judging each other based on money or looks, having pissing contests etc. It's really "lame", as a high schooler would say.

I saw a guy from highschool that used to be a semi-bully at a grocery store and I acted like I did not noticed him at all.
I really like spicy food. I mostly put Jalapenos on a lot of my food.

Apparently it's some band called Bowling For Soup. The music was silly Green Day-style bubblegum punk rock, but the lyrics were - as you can see - not too bad.

I wasn't asking about music at all, I was asking if people agreed with the sentiments expressed in the lyrics, i.e. does life really still feel like high school?
