You got, you got, you got to help me out
And I'll try not to argue
No one, no one, no one likes a drop-out
Mistakes are hard to undo
Don't pull me down, this is where I belong
I think I'm different, but I'm the same and I'm wrong
Don't pull me down, this is where I belong
I think I'm different, this is where I belong
I think it's disgusting, believing and trusting
If I gave a fuck there would be nothing for me to prove
Although it's amusing, it's slightly confusing
I've done all I can but her ego is still hard to move
You got, you got, you got to help me out
And I'll try not to argue
No one, no one, no one likes a drop-out
Mistakes are hard to undo
Don't pull me down, this is where I belong
I think I'm different, but I'm the same and I'm wrong
Don't pull me down, this is where I belong
I think I'm different, this is where I belong
(And I wish)
I wish she'd be more kind now
I'm out of luck 'cause the shades are pulled down
I've seen everything there is to be shown
I followed her all the way home
I can't be too cool in a tree with my pants down
The air is cold and I've got splinters in my feet
She caught me once, but I don't think that she cares now
Unlike before, her view is blocked by a leaf
(And I wish)
I wish she'd be more kind now
I'm out of luck 'cause the shades are pulled down
I've seen everything there is to be shown
I followed her all the way home
I bet this last time's the one time too many
The rush of waiting is burning in my head
Right after supper her brother shower's twice a week
He kicks my ass so much, that filthy white inbred
I've made mistakes by looking in the wrong window
Her dad is big and I've never seen his face
I've been here two days, and I'll sure be here tomorrow
My lady's so sweet, she likes to entertain
(And I wish)
I wish she'd be more kind now
I'm out of luck 'cause the shades are pulled down
I've seen everything there is to be shown
I followed her all the way home
I bet this last time's the one time too many
The rush of waiting is burning in my head
Right after supper her brother shower's twice a week
He kicks my ass so much, that filthy white inbred
The steps that / I retrace / the sad look / on your face
The timing / and structure / did you hear / he fucked her?
A day late / a buck short / I'm writing / the report
On losing / and failing / when I move / I'm flailing now
And it's happened once again
I'll turn to a friend
Someone that understands
Sees through the master plan
But everybody's gone
And I've been here for too long
To face this on my own
Well I guess this is growing up
Well I guess this is growing up
And maybe / I'll see you / at a movie / sneak preview
You'll show up / and walk by / on the arm / of that guy
And I'll smile / and you'll wave / we'll pretend / it's okay
The charade / it won't last / when he's gone / I won't come back
And it'll happen once again
You'll turn to a friend
Someone that understands
And sees through the master plan
But everybody's gone
And you've been there for too long
To face this on your own
Well I guess this is growing up
No trust
All I got is lies
Boring
Alright
Misplaced your values
Forgot being the importance of being right
Don't sit there and act humble
I've heard your story a thousand times
And I'm hoping
Remember I'm a kid
I know not what I did
Just having fun
You couldn't wait for something new
And yesterday I thought of you
It left me to think as if I couldn't walk away
It's too late, I fell through
Nothing to lose
A boy who went out when he finished all his chores
Nothing to do
They can't trust me because I blew it once before
Shit, dad
Please don't kick my ass
I know I've seen you trashed
At least one time
Can I blame it
On one of my dumb friends
It's been awhile
Since I have used that line
You couldn't wait for something new
And yesterday I thought of you
It left me to think as if I couldn't walk away
It's too late, I fell through
Nothing to lose
A boy who went out when he finished all his chores
Nothing to do
They can't trust me because I blew it once before
(Alright)
I'm trying
To be what you want me to be
But it's so damn hard to keep playing the part
Of the fool, week after week
I think you need some time alone (I think you need some time alone)
You say you want someone to call your own
Open your eyes, you can suck in your pride
You can live your life all on your own
Is this all going to be just another time
That we play this game?
I've tried to convince you that things could be different
But somehow they end up the same
But what
Did you expect from me? What am I supposed to do?
You say that you're starting to feel like you're getting lost
Well, I do, too
I don't wanna live this lie again (I don't wanna live this lie again)
I know I'll get it right but I don't know when
I'll open my eyes, I've got something in side
I'll just jack off in my room until then
She doesn't care at all
She doesn't care at all
She doesn't care about those times we never shared at all
But now just as things change
As well my feelings do
In time things rearrange
I am so sick of chasing you
But what do I get 'cause I just seem to lose
You make me regret those times I spent with you
And playing those games as I wait for your call
And now I give up, so goodbye and so long
It's not a change of pace
This time I'll get it right
It's not a change of taste
I was the one there last night
You have your other friends
They were there when you cried
Didn't mean to hurt you then
Best friends just won't leave your side
But what do I get 'cause I just seem to lose
You make me regret those times I spent with you
And playing those games as I wait for your call
And now I give up, so goodbye and so long
It's not a change of pace
This time I'll get it right
It's not a change of taste
I was the one there last night
When I needed you most
When I needed a friend
You let me down now
Like I let you down then
The good intentions that you had
Now only came to this
And although she saw the mark
The arrow missed
It isn't exciting reciting the stories
Of kind words turned hurting when routine get boring
Both getting tired of punk rock clubs
And both playing in punk rock bands
The start was something good
But some good things must end
And she said, "It could never survive
With such differing lives
One home, one out on tour again
We may never come back
The strike of a match
The candle's buring at both ends."
And now she knows too much
And I'm too fucked up
It's awkward trying to make my move
I'll pretend that I'm fine
Show up right on time
But I know I'll never be that cool
I never wanted to hold you back
I just wanted to hold on
But my chance is gone
I know / just where / I stand / a boy
Trapped in the body of a man and
I'll take what you're willing to give
And I'll teach myself to live
With a walk-on part of a background shot
From a movie I'm not in
She's so important
And I'm so retarded
And now I realize
I should have kissed you in L.A.
But I drove home all alone
As if I had a choice, anyway
Where are you coming from?
What are you running from?
Is it so hard to see?
And if you're feeling scared
Remember the time we shared
You know it meant everything (everything)
You know that it meant everything to me
And it seems like things will never change
You go on, every cloud is in your way
And I know you feel empty all the time
You'll never listen to anything that I say
She's better off sleeping on the floor
'Cause she fell right off when all
Is said, you know
It's okay to just want more
Why leave when you claim it is love?
But why stay when you're not the only one?
She's proved she's strong
Be brave, be strong
She's better off sleeping on the floor
'Cause she fell right off when all
Is said, you know
It's okay to just want more
And my girlfriend likes U.L. and D.H.C.
And she's so smart and independent, I don't think she needs me
Quite half as much as I know I need her
I wonder why there's not another guy that she'd prefer
And when I feel like giving up
Like my world is falling down
I show up at 3am
She's still up watching Vacation, and I
See her pretty face
It takes me away to a better place and
(I know that everything [3x]) Everything's gonna be fine
(I know that everything [3x]) Everything's gonna be fine
Yeah, my girlfriend takes collect calls from the road
And it doesn't seem to matter that I'm lacking in the bulge
She laughs at my dumb jokes when no one does
She brings me mexican food from Sombrero's just because
And when I feel like giving up
Like my world is falling down
I show up at 3am
She's still up watching Vacation, and I
See her pretty face
It takes me away to a better place and
(I know that everything [3x]) Everything's gonna be fine
(I know that everything [3x]) Everything's gonna be fine
(I know that everything [3x]) Everything's gonna be fine
(I know that everything [3x]) Everything's gonna be fine
And of course I'd do anything for her
I'd search the moons of Endor
I'd even walk naked through
The deserts of Tatooine
Princess Leia, where are you tonight?
And who's laying there by your side?
Every night I fall asleep with you
And I wake up alone
And even though I'm not as cool as Han
I still want to be your man
You're exactly the kind of
Alderranian that I need
But when you were available, I was
Drinking Colt 45's with Lando
I was hanging out in the cantina
On Mos Eisley
Princess Leia, where are you tonight?
And who's laying there by your side?
Every night I fall asleep with you
And I wake up alone
Princess Leia [2x]
Thrown in the policecar and the door slammed
No noise, just silence, as I screamed, my dick was
Jammed, now in prison for one month, no one to see
All I got is a guy Ben Dover
Don't like hesh, don't like rap
Kicked ol' Sally 'cause she's fat
I'm a jerk, I'm a punk
Took a shower 'cause I stunk
Smoked a bong, killed a cat
Had my nuts attacked by rats
Dad got nude, I wore a thong
For a hobby I make bombs
Went to a farm to tip some cows
Forgot that I left my pants down
Bent over to pick them up
Felt a twelve gauge up my hum-diddy-dum
The farmer took me to his house
Showed me the closet from the inside out
The police came, they took me away
Saw Ben Dover again and he's still gay
Don't like hesh, don't like rap
Kicked ol' Sally 'cause she's fat
I'm a jerk, I'm a punk
Took a shower 'cause I stunk
Smoked a bong, killed a cat
Had my nuts attacked by rats
Dad got nude, I wore a thong
For a hobby I make bombs
Words on the back of flyers, my clothes are in the dryer
It means nothing, nothing is changing
La familia is dead and gone, the children grew up and moved on
Is it too much to ask for the things to work out this time?
I'm only asking for what is mine
I wanted everything, I got it and now I'm gonna
Throw it away, I'll throw it away (yeah)
Prime select and a box of glazed, pulling fly-bys on days
When we were young and innocent
Elbow-drop Sundays when Mark Eaton got beat to shit
Laughing at the bands we hate, all the spots we used to skate
They're still there, but we've gone our own ways
I know it's for the best but sometimes I wonder
Will I ever have friends like you again?
Is it too much to ask for the things to work out this time?
I'm only asking for what is mine
I wanted everything, I got it and now I'm gonna
Throw it away, I'll throw it away (yeah)
Is it too much to ask for the things to work out this time?
I'm only asking for what is mine
I wanted everything, I got it and now I'm gonna
Throw it away, I'll throw it away (yeah)
You're gonna drown in the mess you make
Your self-inflicted hate
You turn your back on the friends you lose
When they don't follow all your rules
And I know it hurts
But you're just getting older
And I know you'll win
You'll do it once again
Just yesterday
It always seemed like such a dream
We're unstoppable, indestructable
Nothing happens to our machine
And there's no harm
At least nothing I can see
As for you, not so true
You couldn't choose where his road would lead
What a loss
You just lost all your sleep
And we've always thought
That this could never happen, you see
That it's so hard
You gotta get up on your feet
'Cause the only way, I gotta say
Is to move on through the week
Don't bide your time
'Cause it is almost over
And I know you're down
And I'll see you around
And I know it hurts
But you're just getting older
And I know you'll win
You'll do it once again
Sorry [x16]
(Sorry...) Happened to you [x4]
Don't bide your time
'Cause it is almost over
And I know you're down
And I'll see you around
Here I am standing on my own
Not a motion from the telephone
I know not a reason why
Solitudes a reason to die
Just you wait and see
As school life is a
It is a woken dream
Aren't you feeling alone?
I guess its just another
I guess its just another
I guess its just another night alone
Now as I walk down the street
I need a job just to sleep in sheets
Buying food every once in a while
But not enough to purchase a smile
A tank of gas is a treasure to me
I know now that nothing is free
I talk to you every now and then
I never felt so alone again
Just you wait and see
As school life is a
It is a woken dream
Aren't you feeling alone?
Because when I'm with you there's nothing I wouldn't do
I just want to be your only one
I'm grasping out at straws thinking back to what I saw
That night on the floor when we were all alone
My love life was getting so bland
There are only so many ways I can make love with my hand
Sometimes it makes me want to laugh
Sometimes I want to take my toaster in the bath
Because when I'm with you there's nothing I wouldn't do
I just want to be your only one
I'm grasping out at straws thinking back to what I saw
That night on the floor when we were all alone
Well, you can take your attitude
You're out of luck, you've gone way too far
If you think there's any chance I'm gonna stay
How long can I string you along?
How little of myself can I give
And still make you believe I care?
At the risk of sounding trite
Why the fuck do you think you're right
About every little thing that you say?
And do you think that it is right
For Tom to spend another night
Writing songs about all the people he thinks are gay?
How long can I string you along?
How little of myself can I give
And still make you believe I care?
In those dark sweaty rooms
Planning out his thoughts
He's waiting for just the right
One by one as they
Walk right through the door, they
Keep on coming back I
Guess they just want more
He has fun fun fun and you
Might call him a whore, but
Just look where he's at 'cause
He is the one that scores
I saw my friend there
Out on the field today
I asked him where he's going, he said
"All the way," now
One by one as they
Walk right through the door, they
Keep on coming back I
Guess they just want more
He has fun fun fun and you
Might call him a whore, but
Just look where he's at 'cause
He is the one that scores
Don't want to spend my life without
All those special things
Don't want to walk around being tied to
Anyone else's
Strings, strings, strings, strings
I would do anything and that's
What scares me so bad
Don't want to live my life alone
Don't want to go back to what I had
Don't want to spend my life without
All those special things
Don't want to walk around being tied to
Anyone else's
And as your head gets all cluttered inside
Try to stay awake
Everything they say are lies
That's all the shit that you ever have to take
So hold in all your aggresions
Because your grinding your teeth on down to
The bottom of your chin
It's not easy or so damn pleasing
To not laugh at everything they say that
They tell you what to be you're not alone
I know what it's like to be denied at everything you do
It's not the same reason why that
Makes you change the things that you once knew
As your head gets all cluttered inside
Give more than you take
Everything they say are lies
That's all the shit that you ever have to take
So hold in all your aggresions
Because your grinding your teeth on down to
The bottom of your chin
It's not easy or so damn pleasing
To not laugh at everything they say that
They tell you what to be you're not alone
You say you want to take off your shoes and
Walk barefoot down the street
Just to be the things that you can be
Just live for one more week (Go!)
You say you want to take off your shoes just to
Walk barefoot down the street
Just to be the things that you can be
Just live for one more week
So hold in all your aggresions
Because your grinding your teeth on down to
The bottom of your chin
Sometimes it seems like all I hope for
Just gets thrown down on the floor
And then it seems like you don't love me anymore
Sometimes I wish that I could run away
Sometimes I wish I just had something to say
She looks at me and doesn't know the words to say
But it's not you, I just don't feel quite right today
All these things I say and do were never planned
But how the fuck am I supposed to make you understand that
And I'm not sure what my purpose is for being here
Why do they, why do they
Always kick me in the groin when I come near
And I'm not complaining it just hurts after a bit.
I don't know what I'm feeling
I'm just so sick of seeing
All those dumb, lame, and retarded broads
Who often just sit kick back
As I am not so relaxed
I often wonder why they act so odd
Because no worse a time
When it's just your time to
Think you should make your move
It doesn't work as your just a jerk with no excuse
What about that situation
All night procrastination
Takes you to the point when you lead her to her door
There is nothing left there to say
I guess you best be on your way
But before you go you got to do that chore
No worse a time
When it's just your time to
Think you should make your move
It doesn't work as your just a jerk with no excuse
Please won't you buy in
I'm always tryin'
I keep on tryin'
There's only so much pride that I can lose
Sometimes I don't feel
The same way as you feel
Words like forever
They scare the shit out of me
Maybe I'm afraid of commitment
Maybe you're too distracted to see that
Sometimes I don't feel
The same way as you feel
I think of all the things I'd say to you if I had the chance again
I think of all the things I'd scream
But I think it's for the best
That you and I just don't connect and
Things are never quite what they seem
Will there ever be
Someone to give her heart to me
Or would I be to blind to see it
I wouldn't make a sound
I'd keep it underground
It always seems like I'm running around around
Running around around
Round
I never dreamed that I'd spend my days
Staring at some tube emitting cathode rays
I need my TV
What's happening in this world, I don't care at all
But it better not pre-empt Monday Night Football
I can't even come up with my own views
I'm taught how to think from the evening news, oh
I never dreamed that I'd spend my days
Staring at some tube emitting cathode rays
I need my TV
And now all alone, one's less than two
I've never been better off living lonely
To listen to what you say
I couldn't care less of what you say
What did you think of me acting this way
I guess you never really thought at all
Is that what you call your brain?
Is that why I call you hang up on me?
I wanted to know, I didn't want to lose
And now I'm a man who's just living small
Listen to what you say
I couldn't care less of what you say
To me as I walk alone I'd
Much rather be riding prone, then
To be just another one you are lame to
I wanted to know, I didn't want to lose
But now I'm a man who's just living small
Listen to what you say
I couldn't care less of what you say
To me as I tune you out of my mind
Won't bend over backwards or
Take another step ahead to
Hear from you again
Don't talk to me as I walk alone, I'd
Much rather be riding prone, than
Be just another one you are lame to
Don't talk to me as I tune you out of my mind
Won't bend over backwards or
Take another step ahead to
Hear from you again
We'd talk about important things
And I picture it in my dreams
She'd teach me about modern art
And I'd show her it's okay to fart and
Maybe I'd impress her
By being in a band and
Maybe if I act real tough
She'd let me hold her hand and
Maybe I'll win her heart
By writing this song about her
Sometimes I sit at home and
Wonder if she's sitting at home
Thinking of me and wondering if I'm
Sitting at home, thinking about her
Or am I just wasting my time
Remembering how she laughed at Kinko's
When I made fun of that guy
Remebering the look she gave me
When I told her that I used to fry
I really want to ask her out
But my ego could never take it
And even if I got the balls
You know that the Cougar would never make it
And in my town you can't drive naked
And maybe I'd impress her
By being in a band and
Maybe if I act real tough
She'd let me hold her hand and
Maybe I'll win her heart
By writing this song about her
Sometimes I sit at home and
Wonder if she's sitting at home
Thinking of me and wondering if I'm
Sitting at home, thinking about her
Or am I just wasting my time
Your words are kind
The kind that repeatedly say no
But that's alright
I'm older than you so I've got time
What have you said, reach out your hand
There's a black shadow on my wall
But as I look into my mind
I can see that girls are a waste of time
We've all seen the bridge
A broken seam and a girl on one side
You think your words will work
They only work when you lay down and close your eyes
I thought of all the lines
All the right ones used at all the wrong times
But that's alright
Depression's just a sarcastic state of mind
What have you said, reach out your hand
There's a black shadow on my wall
But as I look into my mind
I can see that girls are a waste of time
I don't want to live alone
I don't want to live in
My broken dreams of you
Passively one day as the sun rose out of it's house
So did this little old guy as he whistled out of his mouth
And happily and gay
Well I guessed exactly that
Because he found a special girl
That put him in a special trance
He fell in love so quickly
What the hell was he to expect
That the girl under his arm wasn't the same
As any other girl
That he had thought that he once met
I guess you could only blame fate
Things started getting weird as they started to kiss
She often felt his beard and remembered how her father she missed
And then quietly one day
He sang a song from deep within his heart
Causing some ingestion
He finished with a great big fart and
She knew at that one moment
That song was something she heard before
So she asked him to do that again
Then out the door they hurried
She was gonna find out for sure
So she analyzed his rear end
She said, "When I was a little girl my dad left my mom.
He used to always fart and sing this special song.
Now I wasn't quite so sure until your pants did fall.
'Cause now I know that your my dad because you use ben wah balls."
Well, I guess it all depends (undergarments)
Well, I guess it all depends (undergarments)
Step back in the light
No more soiled nights alone
But I guess I don't have a care
Because there's not a load in my underwear
I'm sick of offending everyone I meet (go, go, go, go)
I'm sick of crying myself to sleep on rubber sheets (go)
I had an accident today
I left a soil on a bus seat, I didn't know what to say
But, I guess it all depends (undergarments)
Well, I guess it all depends (undergarments)
