[English]

Do you still blame your mother for your wild and tangled hair?

Did you cut it off after college? Did you move somewhere?

Two left turns from a mall, where the houses all look like the ones on TV

Are you gettin' high, drivin' fast?

Maybe I was just your last hurrah

Yeah, I think about it all the time

Did you stay crazy or fall in line like the rest of 'em?

Are you lookin' at the stars?

Or is your life suburban blue?

Are you divorced or married to a man who really don't know who you are?

Maybe now that's just who you are

Was I your first or just your last hurrah?

Hurrah, hurrah

Do you keep perfume in the glove box to cover up the smoke?

Do you still sleep in my sweatshirt when the nights get cold?

Do you still get drunk

On the weekends 'cause it makes you feel like freedom?

Does he care? Does he ask?

Was I real?

Or just your last hurrah?

Yeah, I think about it all the time

Did you stay crazy or fall in line like the rest of 'em?

Are you lookin' at the stars?

Or is your life suburban blue?

Are you divorced or married to a man who really don't know who you are?

Maybe now that's just who you are

Was I your first or just your last hurrah?

Are you still runnin', laughin'?

Do you wonder what happened?

To your last hurrah

Yeah, I think about it all the time

Did you stay crazy or fall in line like the rest of 'em?

Are you lookin' at the stars?

Or is your life suburban blue?

Are you divorced or married to a man who really don't know who you are?

Maybe now that's just who you are

Was I your first or just your last hurrah?

Was I just your last hurrah? (Oh-oh-oh)
