Last Dance Lyrics - Singles - Army Of Freshmen

every time my parents were gone 

they'd hire this baby sitter named Dawn 

I'd stay up late, watch MTV 

opened up a whole new world to me 

she always used to say that ever Friday 

the whole high school would go, let's go 

over to the school's gymnasium to bask in the rocknroll 

there were mullets, heshers, skaters, jocks 

new wave band geek brains 

they'd all get together, dance forever 

cause the music made them the same 

SAVE THE LAST DANCE FOR ME 

BEFORE I PULL THE PLUG WOULD YOU SET ME FREE 

MY LIFE SUCKS IT'S NOT THE ONE I SEE ON MTV, YEAH 

I grew up, Dawn got knocked up, MTV got huge 

by the time it was my turn to rock and roll 

I realized we were used 

cause the fable on the cable made it able for the label 

turn the table on the music scene 

when you're just 13 what the hell's that mean 

how are you supposed to know 

mullets, heshers, skaters, jocks 

punk rock kids with chains 

they couldn't stay together and dance forever 

money made the music change 

SAVE THE LAST DANCE FOR ME 

BEFORE I PULL THE PLUG WOULD YOU SET ME FREE 

MY LIFE SUCKS IT'S NOT THE ONE I SEE ON MTV 

it was the old rock and roll under brand new control 

and a holy war was waged 

but the billions of civilians they forgot who were the villains 

and the underdog died on stage 

I want my MTV, yeah, yeah 

but don't it want me 

I want my MTV but it' don't want me, yeah 

SAVE THE LAST DANCE FOR ME 

BEFORE I FALL APART WOULD YOU SET ME FREE 

I STILL KNOW THE WAY THAT WE COULD 

SAVE THE LAST DANCE FOR ME 

BEFORE I PULL THE PLUG WOULD YOU SET ME FREE 

THE REAL WORLD SUCKS IT'S NOT THE ONE I SEE ON MTV 

THE ONE I SEE ON MTV, YEAH
