Description
Chapter 14: Jack has done everything he was supposed to do. Got a sensible degree. Got a responsible job. Got married. He is a respectable citizen and a hard worker. Yet, he can't shake his feeling of discontent. He wonders if this is really what his life is supposed to amount to: settling for the status quo. He finds that his simple life is not necessarily easy.
Lyrics
Always did all of my homework Reached for that gold star Always gave the teach an apple I thought I'd get real far Worked each day that I could spare Always took overtime Didn't have much fun, but I don't care I earned every dime After all these years Just going with the flow Pre-Chorus: I dreamed of days When I'd get paid I'd get a car and buy some land. I made good grades Pained minimum wage Just to build to something grand... Down some beers when I get home 'Cause I need me time Got a beach as my screen saver It gives me peace of mind Got a degree, a job, got married Off to a good head start. I'll punch that clock until I'm buried Pray it doesn't fall apart After all these years Got nothing left to show Pre-chorus: I dreamed of days When I'd get paid I'd get a car and buy some land. I made good grades Pained minimum wage Just to build to something grand But is this it? Chorus: Is This It? Pre-chorus Chorus
