Graduation songs?

<p>“Today” by the Smashing Pumpkins</p>

<p>This was supposed to be used on our graduation video, but the administration didn’t like the “I want to turn you on” part. If you’ve heard the song though, it isn’t all that clear this part.</p>

<p>The lyrics fit, and the song isn’t overplayed.</p>

<p>Today is the greatest
Day I’ve ever known
Can’t live for tomorrow,
Tomorrow’s much too long
I’ll burn my eyes out
Before I get out </p>

<p>I wanted more
Than life could ever grant me
Bored by the chore
Of saving face</p>

<p>Today is the greatest
Day I’ve never known
Can’t wait for tomorrow
I might not have that long
I’ll tear my heart out
Before I get out</p>

<p>Pink ribbon scars
That never forget
I tried so hard
To cleanse these regrets
My angel wings
Were bruised and restrained
My belly stings</p>

<p>Today is
Today is
Today is
The greatest day</p>

<p>I want to turn you on
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you</p>

<p>Today is the greatest
Today is the greatest day
Today is the greatest day
That I have ever really known</p>

<p>“Closing Time” by Semisonic is another good one as someone mentioned above.</p>
