Life Sentence

You used to be a partner in crime
 Now you say you ain't got the time
 Gotta get serious, gotta plan
 Gotta pass those entrance exams
 Oh my God
 It's senior year
 All you care about is your career
 [Chorus]
 It's a Life Sentence
 It's a Life Sentence
 It's a Life Sentence
 It's a Life Sentence
 You're squelching your emotions
 All you talk about is old times
 You don't do what you want to
 But you do the same thing everyday
 No sense of humor
 But such good manners
 Now you're an adult
 You're boring
 [Chorus]
 The walls are closing in
 You stayed too long in school
 I'd rather stay a child
 And keep my self-respect
 If being an adult
 Means being like you
 Are you really you you you
 You you you you you you
 Are you really you?
 No
 You're a chained-up dog fenced in a yard
 Don't see much, you can't go far
 Pace and froth, you're getting sick
 Run too fast and it'll snap your neck
 You say you'll break out
 But you never do
 You're just another ant in the hill
 That's your Life Sentence
