The Best We Got

[Verse 1]
One more, more or less then we're done
Can't be sure if we had fun
Sweet sixteen been and gone
Eighteen next year, then we're done

[Verse 2]
Girls like me if they're younger
But girls my age want guys older
Guess I'm just stuck in the middle
Between easies and girls unattainable

[Chorus]
Yeah, they say, these days are the best we got
What a tragic thought
And I try, and I try not to waste this time
But it just flies by the more I try

[Verse 3]
Slow down, don't speak, say something
Line up, don't cheat, stop staring
Sit down, shut up, start learning
Time's up, get out, start working

[Chorus]
Yeah, they say, these days are the best we got
What a tragic thought
And I try, and I try not to waste this time
But it just flies by the more I try

[Bridge]
La, la, la-la-la, la, la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la
La, la, la-la-la, la, la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la

[Chorus]
Yeah, they say, these days are the best we got
What a tragic thought
And I try, and I try not to waste this time
But it just flies by the more I try

[Bridge]
La, la, la-la-la, la, la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la

[Chorus]
Yeah, they say, these days are the best we got
The best we got
