Ok Then

[Intro: Brylcreem Commercial Spokesman]
Oops! Now there’s a happy accident
An accident that could lead to opportunity

[Verse 1]
I get sentimental when I’m sipping whiskey
Watching Malcolm In The Middle
Reminiscing on some visions that are pretty cool
When I was back in school
Didn’t know myself back then
But maybe, yeah, I did
I’m on the couch in the living room
Scared to sleep upstairs alone
Thunderstorm outside, it’s 3 A.M., I got the TV on
Feeling somewhere in between
Staring at the flashing screen
Didn’t know how hard this shit could be when I was seventeen
You don’t know my pain
You don’t know my game
You just know my name
You just know my face
You know what I say
Would you even recognize me anymore?
I don’t know
I think you would but maybe you don’t

[Bridge]
Don’t even know
No, you don’t even know
No, you don’t even know
No, you don’t even know
Don’t even know
No, you don’t even know
No, you don’t
One, two, three, four

[Chorus]
I’m looking for that green path where I’m okay then
I’m looking for that after school where I’m okay then
Back in my room that no longer is around
Wishing for that blue hour, wishing I could be there now
Okay then, okay then
Okay then, okay then
Okay then, okay then
No way, no way

[Verse 2]
Come home late from work, uniform is on the floor
Messaging with somebody I don’t even know anymore
It’s a locked door and I can’t find the key
A place that now only exists inside my memory
C-c-college applications in the mail
Driving my mom’s Honda to the beach when I feel overwhelmed
Parking in that parking lot at night, right by the bridge
Watch the blinking lights out at sea
Counting ships, I’m only seventeen
Now I’m twenty-six, how did I get there to this?
I get on Facebook and see everyone I know having kids
Did I fall behind and now the ship has sailed?
Or did I leap ahead? Is my future dead? I don’t know
Will my grandkids think that I was cool?
Or will they just see a dude who made some videos
And dropped out of school?
I don’t know, no, no, I don’t know
Would you let me know?
Could you let me know?

[Chorus]
I’m looking for that green path where I’m okay then
I’m looking for that after school where I’m okay then
Back in my room that no longer is around
Wishing for that blue hour, wishing I could be there now
Okay then, okay then
Okay then, okay then
Okay then, okay then
No way, no way

[Verse 1]
I get sentimental when I’m sipping whiskey
Watching Malcolm In The Middle
Reminiscing on some visions that are pretty cool
When I was back in school
Didn’t know myself back then
But maybe, yeah, I did
I’m on the couch in the living room
Scared to sleep upstairs alone
Thunderstorm outside, it’s 3 A.M., I got the TV on
Feeling somewhere in between
Staring at the flashing screen
Didn’t know how hard this shit could be when I was seventeen

[Outro]
Didn’t know how hard this shit could be when I was seventeen
