Wake up right around 10
Quant's at class so I get to sleep in
Grab a bite to eat, look for my friends
But their phones' dead so I retrace steps
And I walk about a block and then I take the next right
To the first house that we hit last night
Come across Mike, Stevie Green too
And then we find the rest of the crew
Back in the dorm, later that day
Hit up everybody that I know in my state
Yo is Coby on his way?
I don't know dude, if he's not with his girl then he's probably comin' through
But we gotta do it right
So we can go another night
Don't care what I say
I do it my way
It's all just fun at the end of the day
We'll be making memories tonight
I don't care if anything goes right
Never hurt nobody doing things we like
Let's go wild!
I got the whole damn town here to tear it down
‘Cause I can be polite, but I won't tonight
Twenty people in the car, someone screaming World Star
Yeah I can be polite, but it just won't be tonight
‘Cause I can be polite but I won't tonight
Yeah I can be polite, but it just won't be tonight
When you're living this life, you gotta stay young
So when it's all over you can say you had fun
You gotta be smart, but you gotta be dumb
And if you want friends, then you gotta be one
To make memories, then you gotta go out
‘Cause nothing too crazy ever happens on a couch
So if you're one of a kind and you're out of your mind
Then we're all gonna have a good time
We'll be making memories tonight
I don't care if anything goes right
Never hurt nobody doing things we like
Let's go strong and wild!
I got the whole damn town here to tear it down
‘Cause I can be polite, but I won't tonight
Twenty people in the car, someone screaming World Star
Yeah I can be polite, but it just won't be tonight
‘Cause I can be polite but I won't tonight
Yeah I can be polite, but it just won't be tonight
(Chant)
Goin' strong, goin' wild, everybody singing
(Chant)
Goin' strong, goin' wild
I got the whole damn town here to tear it down
‘Cause I can be polite, but I won't tonight
I don’t care if anything goes right
Either way we’re gonna have a good time
I got the whole damn town here to tear it down
‘Cause I can be polite, but I won't tonight
Twenty people in the car, someone screaming World Star
Yeah I can be polite, but it just won't be tonight
‘Cause I can be polite but I won't tonight
Yeah I can be polite, but it just won't be tonight
(Chant)
‘Cause I can be polite but I won't tonight
(Chant)
Yeah I can be polite, but it just won't be tonight
