Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

Hey You, Is there something worth aspiring to?

And can it be found in a record store?

Well, its not there anymore

Just think of all the things we did

we were different, just like all the other kids,

Interlude

missy was a teen blue video star,

tom took his life in his mother's car,

milo went to college but you knew about that,

Chorus

rodney played our records, jimmy started riots,

laurie was always quiet, she was battling depression

Verse 2

hey you, is there something worth belonging to?

and can I pick it up for a song?

or a diploma or a worthy 'cause

well, let me tell you that there's nothing wrong,

its just that ones like us will never belong

Interlude

jack wore a skirt but he knew how to scrap,

billy went to county on a class one possession,

wendy went to school while her daddy shot smack,

Chorus

eugene kept a list, mugger was security,

mary she kept her purity, we were all in it together

Bridge

yellowed postcards on the wall,

served to cover up the blankness after all

so I will carry them along,

like a song,

when I'm gone

Guitar solo

Verse 3

hey you, is there something worth belonging to?

you know we've been here all along

like a confederacy of the wrong

and I confess it could be prejudice,

but to you I dedicate this song,

yah you...
