The Academy Is...

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

Please stand by
We've come so far
These years we've survived
The ride that turned us inside out
Repeat after me
Just scream and shout
It was the best of times
From broken homes and battle scars
To where we are

Graduate
Paper chase
We'll get out of this place
Don't turn around
Hit the highway
Pour some liquor out for this town
Now that's all for us
It's last call to go

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

Roll it out
It's over now
We're the castouts
With messed up friends
Who never did fit in
Don't care where it ends
Doesn't matter now
As long as we're all one
We'll take the next bus
Destination: setting sun

Graduate
Paper chase
We'll get out of this place
Don't turn around
Hit the highway
Pour some liquor out for this town
Now that's all for us
It's last call to go

Graduate
Paper chase
We'll get out of this place
Don't turn around
Hit the highway
Pour some liquor out for this town
Now that's all for us
It's last call to go

This is an open invite for
All to attend
Don't ask too many questions
Now don't tell us how it ends
Cause we're the ones that wrote the end

Graduate
Paper chase
We'll get out of this place
Don't turn around
Hit the highway
Pour some liquor out for this town
Now that's all for us
It's last call to go
