In the background, there's a noise
All the feet marking time in a straight line
And you can't turn back cause you're better off
You gotta maintain your stance
In the background, there's a voice
Singing softly, but surely to break you down
That no matter what they say, what you're wearing still matters
An unmotivated crowd; blood, sweat, and tears poured into staying safelike tenth-grade apprehension - Oh!
And my navy blue isn't black enough, so I'll keep my head down
Was it innovation or formal?
You dance the same dance as everyone
Smash your equipment in a rage; it's all the rage and a guaranteed way to Heaven
Hallelujah! we're all saved!
And though Heather said i should write it down,
Well, I will be forgotten
But the eternal face for prom queen is here to stay
Gesticulate, try to make a move and break free
And you thought conformity was so passe`
But no matter what they tell you, everything is high school
And it's ob-la-di-bla-da and you walk away
You can try to make a change
More like try to shift in a straight jacket
No matter what they say ou walk away, cause you dance the same dance
Just walk away

(Everybody's part of the dance craze You'll never, ever get away Oh la-di-bla-da, just walk away)
