Walking on down to the seventh grade dance
And I don't know what we're going there for
No one's gonna talk to us, we'll look real silly
Staring at the gymnasium floor
I'll wrestle the beat
With my two left feet
They'll laugh and they'll stare
At what my mom made me wear
Tomorrow I'll wake up
Crying and smiling
It's just another day in the suburbs
Where behind every cloud there's a big ball of burning sunshine
Sometimes
Hitching a ride to the high school dance
And I don't know what we're going there for
The girls are so pretty in their shopping mall fashions
And we're so invisible to them
I feel like I'm in
Some John Hughes film
Like a dream we've all had
Where you can't run too fast
Tomorrow we'll wake up
Crying and smiling
Driving on up to the Hollywood party
I dunno what I'm going there for
There's too many fools and too many rules
And dress codes, and I'm one too many people there
They'll shake and they'll grin
Sharing 8 by 10's
They'll point and they'll laugh
At my photograph
Tomorrow they'll wake up
Crying and smiling...
Smash Mouth is an American rock band formed in San Jose, California, in 1994. The original lineup consisted of Steve Harwell (vocals), Paul De Lisle (bass), Michael Krompass (guitar) and Randy Cooke (drums). Their musical style is characterized by a fusion of power pop, ska and alternative rock, with influences from punk and surf rock. International success came in 1997 with the single "Walkin' on the Sun", taken from their self-titled album. In 1999, "All Star" became a global anthem thanks to its presence in the soundtrack of the film "Shrek". Other successful songs include "Pacific Coast Party" (2001) and "I'm a Believer" (a cover of The Monkees). After Harwell's departure in 2021 due to health issues, the band continued with a new vocalist. Steve Harwell passed away on September 4, 2023.
