28 shouldn't look this old
But the last 10 years sure took their toll
On the girl in the picture with a plastic crown
That sequin dress wouldn't fit her now
Like it did before the kids
Yeah she loves her husband cause she said she would
Oh it ain't so bad, but it ain't so good
She swore she wouldn't get stuck in this town
Now she's cutting coupons two doors down
From her mom
And it goes on
Yeah, too bad life ain't a local parade
In your uncle's Corvette on a Saturday
With all the little girls waiting on you to wave
When your seventeen
You don't know
That you won't always be
Homecoming queen
A newspaper clipping and sash in a box
Are the only things that didn't get lost
She married a guy on a real estate sign
And it's hard to believe once upon a time
She was royalty
The girl we all wanted to be
Yeah, too bad life ain't a local parade
In your uncle's Corvette on a Saturday
With all the little girls waiting on you to wave
When your seventeen
You don't know
That you won't always be
Homecoming queen
Or the captain of the team
It ain't what it seems
It's just a teenage dream
Yeah, too bad life ain't a local parade
In your uncle's Corvette on a Saturday
With all the little girls waiting on you to wave
When your seventeen
You don't know
That you won't always be
Homecoming queen
You won't always be
Homecoming queen
