Big Scary Senior
Big scary senior.
Burning all your bridges made of steel.
Forged from years of friendship.
Big scary senior, do you think you can shake love so easily?
Big scary senior,
building all your new bridges out of cotton.
Poised for the retreat, I see.
Ready to stand and watch it all burn with goodbye.
Big scary senior.
Thinking you can do this all by yourself.
Like you’ll never break down at 5am,
in your car or otherwise.
Big scary senior, so independent.
Big scary senior.
You’ve got it all figured out, don’t you?
Making plans, but tell me…
Are you following your dreams?
Big scary senior,
trembling in fear not excitement.
You’re just a child on the inside, big scary senior.
Big round eyes, wide in terror not anticipation.
Silly, silly, silly, big scary senior.
