You reached for heaven at seventeen
  And caught the clap from some teenage queen
  Took some tablets, hit it again
  and that's all right
  Sometimes you took the stacked deck too far
  Some say you took it all way too hard
  The mediocrity in moderation
  was way too tight
  
  Did you ever stop to think
  of what was real?
  Did you compromise your time
  just to cop a feel?
  
  Sometimes you think that the time flew by
  Some twenty years ago come July
  You're getting older but not so wise
  And that's all right
  You go for words that you cannot reach
  Spew antiseptic allegories
  a walking diuretic
  of dictionary rhymes
  
  Don't you even know your dreams
  are not for real
  Don't you ever find it hard
  to forge what you feel
  
  Just quit your bitching and confess
  the time of your life just came and went
  you're gonna drown in shallowness
  in the empty sea of frat boys and dunces
  
  You reached for Heaven at seventeen
  and caught the clap from some teenage queen
  woke up from your suburban daydream
  opened your eyes
