The Swiss Army Romance

Sleep with all the lights on
Youre not so happy
Youre not secure
And youre dying to look cute
In your blue jeans
But youre plastic just like everyone
Just like everyone
And that face you paint is pressed
Impressing most of us as permanent
And Id like to see you undone
College night will draw the crowds
Dorms unload and youre heading out
Here is your moment to shine
Making up a history
Its nothing from the life you lead
But man, will they buy all your lines
Sleep with all the sheets off
Bearing your mattress
Bearing your soul
And youre dying to look smooth
With your tattoos
But youre searching just like everyone
You could be anyone
And those friends you have are the best
Impressing most of us as permanent
But Id like to see you undone
Youths the most unfaithful mistress
Still we forge ahead to miss her
Rushing our moment to shine
Making up a history
Its nothing from the life you lead
But man, will they buy all your lines
Were not twenty-one
But the sooner we are
The sooner the fun will begin
So get out your fake eyelashes
And fake I.D.s
And real disasters ensue
Its cool to take these chances
Its cool to fake romances
And grow up fast
And grow up fast
And grow up fast
And grow up fast
