  • While running this morning, I got to thinking about the lyrics in Bowling For Soup‘s song, “High School Never Ends”…

    The whole damn world is just as obsessed
    With who’s the best dressed and who’s having sex,
    Who’s got the money, who gets the honeys,
    Who’s kinda cute and who’s just a mess
    And you still don’t have the right look
    And you don’t have the right friends
    Nothing changes but the faces, the names, and the trends
    High school never ends

    [...]
    And the only thing that matters
    Is climbing up that social ladder
    Still care about your hair and the car you drive
    Doesn’t matter if you’re sixteen or thirty-five

    [...]
    And I still don’t have the right look
    And I still have the same three friends
    And I’m pretty much the same as I was back then

    Does high school never truly end? Do we deal with cliques our whole lives? Why?
