Any high school students out there who are excited for prom and can't wait to venture off to college and experience all the freedom associated with graduation may think twice after watching The Graduation Song by YouTubers Rhett & Link.
Sure, you no longer live under the thumb of your controlling parents, but what exactly are you supposed to do with the loads of dirty laundry, shortage of spending money and severe lack of delicious home-cooked meals? This brilliantly hilarious song clearly demonstrates the chaotic mess that your once organized and simple life will quickly turn into when you finally graduate high school.
Amazingly, The Graduation Song video was filmed entirely in just a single take.
