[Intro]
Haha, yeah, let's go back in time
To those carefree days we called high school
[Verse 1]
Lunchtimes in the cafeteria, dreaming big but stuck in math
Sneaking out the back door, wishing we could never graduate
Crushing on the seniors, making plans for the weekend
Simple, reckless, young and restless, like nothing could ever end
[Pre-Chorus]
Hey, why don’t you get a job?
Stop dreaming big and face reality
But we just wanna have fun
To the beat of our own insanity
[Chorus]
Oh, high school never, never ends
Skipped classes, all our friends
Playing in the halls, singing loud
Living like we own this town
Hey! Why don’t you get a job?
Put your dreams on hold, or so they say
We’re just kids, we’re just free
Chasing laughs and memories
High school never, never, never fades away
[Verse 2]
Late night calls, whispering secrets, plotting our escape
Driver’s license waiting, but we’re lost in the masquerade
Flip phones, mixtapes, doodles on the napkin
We didn’t care about tomorrow, just the moment we’re havin’
[Pre-Chorus]
Hey, why don’t you get a job?
Keep your head down, follow the trend
But we just wanna dance
Till the sunrise, hand in hand
[Chorus]
Oh, high school never, never ends
Skipped classes, all our friends
Playing in the halls, singing loud
Living like we own this town
Hey! Why don’t you get a job?
Put your dreams on hold, or so they say
We’re just kids, we’re just free
Chasing laughs and memories
High school never, never, never fades away
[Bridge]
Can’t go back, but we remember
The thrill of July, forever young
Caught in a moment that’s tender
In a song that’s never sung
[Outro]
So here’s to the days we left behind
To the endless summer in our minds
High school never, never fades away
We carry it within, come what may
