verse:
My family wondered what I wanted to be.
I don't know why they asked.
To me and my friends it was plain to see
They were living in the past.
chorus:
Go to school and get good grades.
Borrow money to pay your way.
Work hard and you'll succeed, they say.
But to me tomorrow looks a lot like yesterday.
verse:
I tried to live my parents' dream.
A job, a house, a family.
Done my best and what have I achieved?
Odd jobs, their basement, and nobody.
chorus
verse:
Sometimes I feel like I've been scammed
Maybe those hippies in the sixties were right.
If I had the money, I'd buy a van
Turn on, tune in, drop out of sight.
chorus

Hi Renee,
Good start :D Clear message and it ties in well with the title.
I really like the parallels in v2 A job, a house, a family.....Odd jobs, their basement, and nobody.
Suggestion....but what you have works as well
.
Borrow money to pay your way.
Take out a loan to pay your way
or
Took out a loan; (I'm) still paying today
Thanks for sharing.
James
