(Choral: We'll remember all you taught us
How to love and care
Light of knowledge lighting roman candles in the air)

Welcome grads
Into reality
You've been patient now it's your turn
Let's not waste the day on sentimentality
You've still got one lesson to learn:

The first candle you burned was just nice
The first time you had chicken and rice
But that was back when you were only three
You shot two off in the past few days
But don't get caught in the candle craze
'cause you still gotta save two for Tony

Save two for Tony
Save two for Tony
It's the only way to be
There's no manual for when it's right
But when he manuals to you some night
You'll be glad you saved two for Tony

Look around at all of your peers
Some have fewer candles than you
Others haven't shot a candle in years
'cause once you've shot your tenth one you're through
You'll shoot one for your aunt Jane
When you beget a son in your name
And you'll light one with the first prada you carry
And you? Write this down:
- January 17th, 2035 -
But the rest of you? You better save two for Tony
Save two for Tony baby
Save two for Tony
It's the only way to be
No
Don't you give me none of your lip
Cause when you see his triple kickflip
You'll be glad you saved two for Tony

There's 900 ways to shoot your wad
(It's not a sex thing babe)
But only one way approved by god
(Or maybe two if you're lucky)
The god of the board
(God of the board)
The 4-wheeled lord
(The 4-wheeled lord)
The hop up on high
Our skateboarding guy
(Tony Hawk baby)

Save two for Tony
(Tony Hawk)
Save two for Tony
(Tony Hawk baby)
It's the only way to be
He ollied once and it was divine
(Tony Hawk)
But all he wants is to see you shine
You'll be glad you saved two for Tony
(Saved two for Tony)
Save two for Tony
(Tony Hawk)
Save two for Tony
(Tony Hawk baby)
- I shot three off at once when Tony Hawk looked in my direction and I would do it again! -
(Tony Hawk)
Oh baby
You better, you better save two for Tony
(Save two for Tony)
