That Kid
Only the smart kids learn.
Not the smart kids like
The ones that will never
Smoke pot.
Not the ones that will never
Take the walk of shame.
Not the ones that will never
Skip a class or six.
I mean the ones that learn.
They learn not to love anything
Beause everything can be taken away.
'Cause you can lose dinner privileges.
'Cause your Playboys can be confiscated.
'Cause you won't always be this
Sane.
And you can't take any of it with you
In the end
Anyway.

in the end
anyway
Somehow a lot of people forget that.
why not leave something thoughtful behind instead.
