Graduation Day Lyrics

Smudged funnies in a broken bottle
On the dot at nine
So daddy throws clothes, throws on an old stove
I'm cryin' in the corner at five
Well, I've seen black and I've seen blue
But fine lines I don't see
And just because I am in misery
Don't it mean a thing
That I wanna know
That I wanna know
Graduation Day
Graduation Day
We take back everything
We said about you
September, as far as she remembers
They don't teach humility
And just because her only signal is mayday
Don't it mean a thing

That she's seen love and she's seen war
But fairness she don't see
And just because she is in misery
Don't it mean a thing
That she wants to know
That she wants to know
Graduation Day
Graduation Day
We take back everything
We said about you
(Graduation Day)
Graduation Day
Graduation Day
We take back everything
We said too
The camaraderie's old, doing what I'm told
And everybody knows this is getting out of hand
Everybody is dying for, the chance to be heard not ignored
And everybody knows this is getting out of hand
Graduation Day
Graduation Day
We take back everything
We said about you
Graduation Day
Graduation Day
We take back everything
We said too
(Graduation Day)
I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna
I ain't goin' to school
(Graduation Day)
I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna
I'm not goin' to school
