I didn't like where I was living So I went away and did some thinking Started to get my things packed And then I had my car jacked It was now or never Now things are better than ever You can eat pizza when you want to Can nap all day with no one nagging you Of course we got them bills to pay And I'm sure as hell I'll find a way But until then I will do whatever I choose Just remember what your parents taught you And forget all the old things you knew You're about to live life in your own shoes It's gonna be one of the best things you can do Don't get me wrong it can be stressful Now you have to make your own phone calls And when a salesman comes knocking at your door You can't hand them over to your mum no more Just remember what your parents taught you And forget all the old things you knew You're about to live life in your own shoes It's gonna be one of the best things you can do And life can get hard But it's hard anywhere So why not be sad In a place you don't care? You can stay up all night And sleep up until two Just remember to clean behind your ears (and then I just go on for a bit about nothing) Just remember what your parents taught you And forget all the old things you knew You're about to live life in your own shoes It's gonna be one of the best things you can do
