The Offspring » O.C. Life Lyrics

wannabe a member, wannabe a name
wannabe a local face that plays the social games
dancing through a time will bring you dinosaur trends
the limits of your mind is where the county line ends
listen to the media present it all as fact
following the lead cause you don't know how to act
travel in a straight line cause you don't know your own way
they'll get you in the end before you know you'll have a say

this o.c. life is not the life for me
insulated world, trade your happy thoughts
o.c. life is not the life so free
... for you girls and boys

wannabe a member, wanna have some fame
fighting to stay ahead a part of the game
atm and starbucks (on) every corner are the norm
environment so sterile, it'll get you to conform
714, wear it like a brand
contaminated future is [...]
fight all their rules, I don't see a better way
guess you're really in before you know you'll have a say

this o.c. life is not the life for me
insulated world, riot out your thoughts
o.c. life is not the life so free
pressure is for real, with artificial joys
... for you girls and boys

check you out
you're all [...] fiend
