Class Reunion (That Used To Be Us)

Well, I rolled into town With the rag-top down I was looking for that homecoming queen That three-by-nine lit hotel sign read Welcome back, class of '83 There were football guys twice their size Cheerleaders hiding the gray in their hair The names were the same, but the faces had changed I didn't recognize anyone there That used to be us; we used to be cool With the music cranked up, hanging out after school That used to be Jill, that used to be Joe Tell me, where in the world did we all go? That used to be us, oh, that used to be us I had a drink with some buds, played a lot of catch up Danced with my date from the prom But as hard as I tried until I closed my eyes Everybody I knew was gone There was Mr. Finch--he taught English and French He was dancing with a couple of canes And that homecoming queen, yeah, the girl of my dreams She didn't even remember my name That used to be us; we used to be cool With the music cranked up, hanging out after school That used to be Jill, that used to be Joe Tell me, where in the world did we all go? That used to be us As I stand here and look around I can't help but wonder Who will we be ten years from now? That used to be us; we used to be cool With the music cranked up, hanging out after school That used to be Jill, that used to be Joe Tell me, where in the world did we all go? That used to be us Oh, that used to be us That used to be us That used to be us
