Lyrics
Responsibility is a foreign word to me
Responsibility is not a familiar concept to the speaker.
It's time to buckle down
It's time to get serious and focused.
It's time to stand your ground
Stand up for what you believe in and hold your ground.
Standard ways of life for which you abide by
Conventional ways of living that you adhere to.
Are not always the ways to take
Traditional paths may not always be the right choices.
Slow before you make a mistake
Think carefully before making a decision.
Open your eyes and see
Be aware of your surroundings and understand the truth.
I've got too much fun ahead of me
The speaker has exciting and enjoyable experiences awaiting them.
I've got too much fun ahead of me
Reiteration of the anticipation of a fun-filled future.
Reality doesn't, it doesn't refer to me
Reality does not concern or apply to the speaker.
The real world's no big deal man
Downplaying the significance of the real world.
What's real is what you feel
Emphasizing that emotions and personal experiences define reality.
So tell me now buddy: what are you gonna do?
Asking a rhetorical question about taking action in life.
Will you take advice from me?
Suggesting the speaker has advice to offer.
Will you be who you wanna be?
Encouraging individuality and authenticity.
Cause if you don't I have no sympathy for thee
Expressing a lack of sympathy if one doesn't choose their own path.
I've got too much fun ahead of me
Reiteration of the anticipation of a fun-filled future.
I've got too much fun ahead of me
Further emphasis on the exciting times ahead.
Reality doesn't, it doesn't refer to me
Reality continues to be irrelevant to the speaker.
The real world's no big deal man
Downplaying the importance of the real world.
What's real is what you feel
Reiterating the idea that emotions and personal experiences define reality.
So tell me now buddy: what are you gonna do?
Rhetorical question emphasizing the importance of personal choices.
Will you take advice from me?
Asking if the listener is open to receiving advice.
Will you be who you wanna be?
Encouraging the listener to be true to themselves.
Cause if you don't I have no sympathy for thee
Expressing a lack of sympathy if one doesn't choose their own path.
I've got too much fun ahead of me
Reiteration of the anticipation of a fun-filled future.
I've got too much fun ahead of me
Continued emphasis on the exciting times ahead.
