SMS: Jimmy Eat World - "Work"

"Work" by Jimmy Eat World

When I think Jimmy Eat World, I think of the span of their musical endeavors and how there are so many songs out there that basically could make up the soundtrack of anyone's summer. Work being one of them. This song, to me, knowing that the class of '09 is departing and going off to shoot for their dreams and heading off to college this is the perfect song for such an occasion. This song is about taking risks and just living it up because we're moving on to college. We've spent our whole lives (most of us that is) never really getting into trouble or living it up like we should. This is the last years of some pretty memorable moments of your life. You experience so much in high school and you'll always have those memories, good or bad. In life we have to take risks or we're all just standing still as the world passes us by.
