lyrics

Woke up on the wrong side of bed
Children running all through my head
I heard a cry out in the street
I just wanted something to eat

I head out of my front door
And I’m not home until three or four
Now I’m alone not wearing pants
And it just makes me want to dance

It’s been rough living on my own
Without a place to call my home
Not enough room for me to roam
Living in monochrome!

College is done and I am through
I have nowhere to go
It’s been rough living on my own
Without a place to call my home

I’m flat broke with no spare change
Have nowhere to call my range
If my whereabouts were uncertain
I would not be on milk carton

There are no more parents no more rules
Now I wonder if I am a fool
Thinking about life ahead of school
A life filled with fun, that totally rules

It’s been rough living on my own
Without a place to call my home
Not enough room for me to roam
Living in monochrome!

College is done and I am through
I have nowhere to go
It’s been rough living on my own
Without a place to call my home

I have job interview Thursday
And I’m ready to go away
Next time I see mother and father
I’ll be the one who is the scholar

I don’t know if I can make it
I feel the only option is to quit
But I know the next time we meet
You’ll find my dreams are complete

It’s been rough living on my own
Without a place to call my home
Not enough room for me to roam
Living in monochrome!

College is done and I am through
I have nowhere to go
It’s been rough living on my own
Without a place to call my home

I don’t know if you knew this
But everything has lead to bliss
Our lives culminating to this
Living in perpetual bliss

I can’t overstate the importance
But I didn’t think I would make it
You thought I would admit I quit
But now I know I have really made it

It’s been rough living on my own
Without a place to call my home
Not enough room for me to roam
Living in monochrome!

College is done and I am through
I have nowhere to go
It’s been rough living on my own
Without a place to call my home
