Ann-Marita: Music
Class Of '93
(Ann-Marita)
Words and music by Ann-Marita Garsed
Class Of '93
1. Life was there for the taking
Ten years ago today
Parties lined up all summer,
then they'd all be on their way
Room covered in photographs
they remembered they had seen
Way back when they were the Class of Nineteen-ninety-three
(Chorus.)
They didn't see much further than the weekend
Back then, life wasn't all that serious
What later appeared involved much more than
cheatin' your way to another B plus
Gettin' out on their own didn't mean carefree
to the Class of Ninety-three
2. They'd all heard about Jenny's mom passin' away
And Eric's wife packed up and left him, last New Year's Day
Joe got a big promotion
with some dot com company
Then charges of embezzlement...
If only it was still
Nineteen ninety-three
(Chorus repeat.)
They didn't see much further than the weekend
Back then, life wasn't all that serious
What later appeared involved much more than
cheatin' your way to another B plus
Gettin' out on their own didn't mean carefree
to the Class of Ninety-three
(Bridge)
Bein' faced with old dreams
takes its toll on self-esteem
But the Prozac generation
has grown up since graduation oh oh
(Chorus repeat).
They didn't see much further than the weekend
Back then, life wasn't all that serious
What later appeared involved much more than
cheatin' your way to another B plus
Gettin' out on their own didn't mean carefree
and no one cares if you disagree
with life's only two guarantees
I guess we're all part of
the Class of Ninety-three
The Class of Ninety-three
There ain't no guarantees
