Well grade school never meant that much to me
I started smoking at the age of 13
Back of the cla** that's where we'd hang around
But they could not bring us down
And now they're on the run
Little Johnny's mad and he's got a gun
Just kids having fun
You can't deny
No alibi
I saw you back when you were just like them
I know it's true
And we all fall down together
Ashes to ashes as we burn this f**er down
On the merry go round the kids are learning
Yeah, there's something wrong at the playground
Well high school was just a holding cell for me
With no freedom as we learn democracy
Spent most of my days in the back lot
A cherry burning bright but a future that's not
And now were on the run
Try not to think a lot and just keep on having fun
No responsibility
You can't deny
No alibi
You were just like them, I saw you back then
I know it's true
And we all fall down together
Ashes to ashes as we burn this f**er down
On the merry go round the kids are learning
Yeah there's something wrong at the playground
