You can leave Or you can stay But no one likes the one that got away Don't dare to dream Don't pretend If you think you're someone special Think again Everybody's getting married Get divorced, cause they ain't happy Now the kids just see their daddy on the weekends Buy a house and get a mortgage Sell it when you can't afford it It goes round and round and round You just repeat it They say hey Get a job and settle down Common girl you had your fun Hey Get a daughter and a son That's just what you do here When you're young You fall in love You think the first one is the one So you hold on And when you're old You want more And you'll regret all of the things You didn't do before Everybody found their meaning That's the reason they don't see How it goes round and round and round You just repeat it They say hey Get a job and settle down Common girl you had your fun Hey Get a daughter and a son That's just what you do here When you're young Blame the world and everybody else For every heartbreak Hate it when somebody's doing well And all they say is hey Get a job and settle down Common girl you had your fun Hey Get a daughter and a son That's just what you do here When you're young
