A song about dropping out of school. Formula 409 is a cleaning fluid that we can confidently assume tastes terrible with coffee. Moreover, the song says that school doesn’t always help you choose your path in life, doesn’t ask you what you want to be in the future – it simply pushes you onto a certa...
[Verse 1]
I sit in the state of a daydream
With all of your words flying over my head
Even more time gets wasted in a daze
It should seem obvious to you

[Chorus]
And I'm looking back now at where I have gone wrong
And why I could not seem to get along
My interests are longing to break through these chains
These chains that control my future's aims, oh no
