What You Make of It

My dad says "Get wise before you're old son"
 This is something no one ever learns from
 Here I am to set this record straight
 And truth be told about the Garden State
 It's not the kids or the bands or the shows or my friends
 It's the feeling of living life on the road
 Reminding me of how much I hate this place
 Soon you'll be saying "there goes the under rated kids who made it"
 So thanks for nothing thanks for nothing
 I've got my things all packed
 Leaving this song behind for non believers
 So Thanks for nothing thanks for nothing
 I'm sick of partying with the same shady dudes
 "Hey bro, check out my knuckle tats!"
 A constant reminder of what I hate in this state
 Arguing over who called next game
 Way to make your parents proud
 And Johnny's screaming the same old shit
 We heard it all in his last band
 Something about how his 'Friends are on Fire'
 Well if they're all from this town I say we let 'em burn out
 Soon you'll be saying "there goes the under rated kids who made it"
 So thanks for nothing thanks for nothing
 I've got my things all packed
 Leaving this song behind for non believers
 So Thanks for nothing thanks for nothing
 So Listen up! and listen here close
 It's nothing new to all the breaking out locals
 I'm giving credit where the credit is due
 And where it's not just assume this songs for you
 Soon you'll be saying "there goes the under rated kids who made it"
 So thanks for nothing thanks for nothing
 I've got my things all packed
 Leaving this song behind for non believers
 So Thanks for nothing thanks for nothing
 Thanks for nothing
 Thanks for nothing
