What are you gonna do boy?

What are you gonna do boy?

When you grow up

And you're all alone.

 

Right now you're the cool one, 

The one everyone loves.

You've got everything going for you.

You seem like you're from above.

 

But the real world.

Isn't like that.

You can't breeze through.

Like you do now.

 

In the real world, 

You gotta work hard,

You gotta find out,

You gotta do your part.

 

So what, what are you gonna do boy

What are you gonna do boy.

When you grow up, 

And you're all alone.

 

Right now you've got good grades,

You've got good looks,

But you haven't got a clue.

They'll get over you.

 

Right now, you don't know

Where you wanna go

Where you wanna stay,

What you wanna do.

 

You'd better hurry up,

In the real world,

Life goes fast.

 

So whatcha gonna do boy,

Gonna do boy,

Whatcha gonna do boy.

When you grow up, and you're all alone.

 

You've gotta find out.

You've gotta hurry up.

You've gotta figure out.

How you're gonna survive.

 

Right now, it's not easy.

And right now, you're working hard.

Right now, you're doing good.

But right now, doesn't matter at all.
