A banda fora formada em Wichita, Texas, em 1994 com Jarret Reddick (guitarra, vocal), Erik Chandler (baixo, vocal), Chris Burney (guitarra, vocal) e Lance Morril (bateria, vocal). Morril deixou a banda em 1998 (em bons termos), e Gary Wiseman entrou em seu lugar. O nome da banda fora derivado de uma comédia de Steve Martin, denominada “Bowling For Shit”, do seu álbum de comédia de 1978, Wild and Crazy Guy, fazendo uma referência ao Bowling For Dollars.

Verse 1: AF#m Four years you think for sure, that's all you got to endure GD All the total dicks, all the stuck up chicks, so superficial so immature AF#m Then when you graduate, you take a look around and you say hey wait GD This is the same as where I just came from, I thought it was over, oh that's just great
Chorus: ADADAEA The whole damned world is just as obsessed with who's the best dressed and who's havin' sex ADADAEA Who's got the money, who gets the honeys, who's kinda cute, and who's just a mess DEDE And you still don't have the right look, and you don't have the right friends DBmE Nothing changes but the faces the names and the trends, high school never ends

Verse 2: AF#m Check out the popular kids, you'll never guess what Jessica did GD And how did Mary Kate lose all that weight, and Katy had a baby so I guess Tom's straight AF#m And the only thing that matters, is climbing up that social ladder GD Still care about your hair and the car you drive, doesn't matter if your sixteen or thirty five
