The Stock Market
Dwight Evan Young/Vince Rostkowski

Four years of college and plenty of knowledge
Have prepared me for nothing at all.
We’re home and we’re leaving,
We’re bruised and we’re beating
Our hearts up against a wall.

Tell me it’ll be alright;
The next ten years
Will be brilliant, the future’s so bright!
Remind me: this is just a game,
It’s not win or lose,
Because the story ends all the same.

Tell me, what am I supposed to do?

What comes next?

[CHORUS]
We’ll talk about grown-up things like cholesterol,
And beer and coffee.
We’ll talk about finances, politics, and married life.
Projects and papers, meeting and late nights on my cell phone talking to you
Talking about the stock market…
And boobs.

Everyone you ever loved was always right behind you,
But right behind you feels like miles and miles away.
Everything is up to you,
Successes and failures
Prepare you for lifetime anew.

But I feel so many years removed.

What comes next?

[CHORUS x2]
