Alright, well I rolled in town with the rag top down I was looking' for that home coming queen That three by nine lit hotel sign read Welcome back class of eighty-three There were football guys twice their size Cheerleaders hiding the grey in their hair The names were the same but the faces had changed I didn't recognize anyone there That used to be us, we used to be cool With the music cranked up, hangin' out after school That used to be chill, that used to be joke Tell me where in the world did we all go That used to be us, oh that used to be us I had a drink with some buds Played a lot of catch up Danced with my date from the prom But as hard as I tried until I closed my eyes Everybody I knew was gone There was Mr. Finch, he taught English and French He was dancing with a couple of canes And that home coming queen, yea the girl of my dreams She didn't even remember my name That used to be us, we used to be cool With the music cranked up, hangin' out after school That used to be chill, that used to be joke Tell me where in the world did we all go? That used to be us As I stand here and look around I can't help but wonder Who will be ten years from now That used to be us, we used to be cool With the music cranked up, hangin' out after school That used to be chill, that used to be joke Tell me where in the world did we all go That used to be us, oh that used to be us That used to be us, that used to be us
