lyrics

You were right when you said
I could have a car and a good job
Soon a house and who knows maybe a dog
What a good life

But mom I'm in my twenties and I've got other shit to do

Than sell out and be like all the other sheep
So I said ''no thanks it's not for me…
Maybe in ten years''

Cause I like living in Montreal and this town has nothing to offer

And I think you've got a lot of nerve to ask me to give up right now
Cause unlike you at my age I'm not seeking a way out

You were right when you said
I should've taken the job and been grateful
Even though this isn't what I wanted to be
And it scares me

Cause someday I will be thirty
Soon enough out of money

I'll sell out and be like all the other sheep
But it's not the worst that could happen to me
I can still have a family

Then I'll like living in my hometown for all it has to offer

And you said
It takes a lot of work to get where you want to be
But just like me at my age you'll be happy

It took a lot of nerve to raise our whole family
You should be proud cause you've shown us
All there was for us to see
