"High School Never Ends" is a song by the Texas pop punk band Bowling for Soup. The song was the first single from their ninth album, ''The Great Burrito Extortion Case'', and was released on September 19, 2006. The song deals with the frustration of graduating from high school and seeing that modern popular culture is very similar to the obnoxiously superficial and materialistic culture in high school. The tune had a prominent outside songwriter, Adam Schlesinger of rockers Fountains of Wayne and Tinted Windows, working with the band. The song was briefly featured on the January 18, 2007 episode of ''My Name Is Earl''. Part of the song is also featured on commercials for ''Beauty and the Geek'' and also ''17 Again''. ==Song references== The song contains many references to the pop culture of the time. Specific celebrities mentioned include Mary-Kate Olsen (specifically, her alleged eating disorder - ''How did Mary Kate lose all that weight?''), Jessica Simpson (''you'll never guess what Jessica did''), Bill Gates (''Bill Gates, captain of the chess team''), Reese Witherspoon (''Reese Witherspoon, she's the prom queen''), Jack Black (''Jack Black, the clown''), Brad Pitt (''Brad Pitt, the quarterback'') and Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes (''Katie had a baby so I guess Tom's straight'', also a reference to his litigation against journalists/paparazzi who questioned his sexuality). The song satirizes many aspects of today's society and its scrutiny of celebrity lives.
