There's a thing or two about high school that you need to know.
We wish we had known this when we were freshmen.

Watch out for Freshman Friday: the most dangerous day of the week.
You thought you were excited for the weekend,
But this is where your week ends.

Four more years of obeying authority,
Without question.
Don't reach super sighted.
There's only 1,416 pages left to read;
It will be time to celebrate, when it's time to graduate.

Whatever you do,
Don't you ever bring a roller backpack to school.
Because douchebag kids will kick them over.
We don't see why, though-
They're really convenient!

If a girl gives you a smile, don't be deceived:
She wants you to father her child.
And he's probably not even cute!

The only good about high school
Is that there's super badass playgrounds-
They have the best swings ever!
I once jumped five feet in the air!

Four more years of obeying authority,
Without question.
Don't reach super sighted.
There's only 1,416 pages left to read;
It will be time to celebrate, when it's time to graduate.

To think about how happy I was before I came,
Running out of every room I walked in today.
But the most miserable part,
Is that it's only the first day.

If high school was compared to seeing your mom in a Playboy Magazine,
Then maybe high school isn't that bad,
'Cause that'd be the biggest boner kill in history...
Unless she's hot!

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
