Lemmings
freight train to the right feeling that sting of pride
it's fucking with me it's fucking with you
all is fair in love and war until you say it isn't but you're wrong
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 i
s 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
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 this again
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
but people are what they want to be
they're not lemmings to the sea
maybe it's time you looked at yourself
and stop blaming life on someone else
Enthused
Am I strung out, crazy or not allowed to be
the one who gets stupid over you
lazy, laid back maybe you're just on crack
Why am I the one who gets fucked up and excused
She just don't care at all
I just don't care at all
I just don't care about those times we never shared at all
If I were the last of the few who always ask
would you still be the same person that I knew
and if its for me another boring story
I swear I'll act enthused time
when the clock strikes two there's just so much to do and I can't explain what I need jobs and social groups, hearing the lastest news keeping your reputation clean and i don't want to worry about being on time i see the way you hurry and time runs your life again the difference between the east and west... money means so much less and objects aren't so important to buy i wish that a clock could often just be stopped but then we look into the time and i don't want to worry about being on time i see the way you hurry and time runs your life.....again.
21 days (the crying song)

* super fun extra bonus track
wasting time
I'm wasting time thinking about a girl
and stealing her away from her world
she and I would run away
I think of all the things that I'd say
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)
m+m's
You and I should get away for a while
I just want to be alone with your smile
buy some candy and cigarettes and get in my car
we'll blast the stereo and drive to madagascar
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
who's going to be the odd man out
I don't want to be the odd man out
is this going to be the end
or are you going to be my new girlfriend --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pathetic
I know I'm pathetic, I knew when she said it
A loser, a bum's what she called me when I drove her home
There's no more waiting and sure no more wasting
I've done all I can but she still wants to be left alone
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
Don't pull me down, this is where I belong
I think I'm different, this is where I belong

Voyeur
And when the day ends I'm sure she feels sorrow
The lonely guy I am, I like to watch her change
I've been here two days, I'll sure be here tomorrow
I'd eat her out if she were on my dinner plate
(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

Dammit
It's alright / to tell me / what you think / about me
I won't try / to argue / or hold it / against you
I know that / you're leaving / you must have / your reasons
The season / is calling / and your pictures / are falling down
The steps that / I retrace / a 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
I'm 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's happened once again

Boring
You don't need nothin'
And I know that you won't even try
Don't wait for me to help you
Too late for any of my advice
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
No trust
All I got is lies
Boring
Alright
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dick Lips
Please, mom
You ground me all the time
I know that I was right
All along
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 trash
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)
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

Waggy
Watching your house shrink away in my rear-view mirror
As I drive away
Wishing that I could take back all those words
That meant nothing that I didn't say
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
It's never over 'til it's done
And I don't think that you're the one
It's never over 'til it's done
And I don't think that you're the one
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enthused
Am I strung out, crazy, or not allowed
To be the one who gets stupid over you
Lazy (lazy), laid back (laid back), maybe you're just on crack
Why am I the one who gets fucked up and confused?
(Go)
She doesn't care at all
She doesn't care at all
She doesn't care about those times we never shared at all
If I were the last of the few who always ask
Would you still be the same person that I knew
And if it's for me, another boring story
I swear I'll act enthused
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
untitled
I think of awhile ago
We might have had it all
But I was so stupid then
You needed time to grow
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
So sorry, it's over
(Ahh...)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Apple Shampoo
She didn't mean to deceive you, believe me
But sometimes the hardest part is conceiving
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'm just trying 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
You know that it meant everything to me
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Emo
One more time you will laugh without it
And he'll never try to give you more
And I don't care, he is such a dick
Treats you like you are a stupid whore
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
She's better off sleeping on the floor
She's better off sleeping on the floor (Because she fell right off her bed)
She's better off sleeping on the floor
She's better off sleeping on the floor (Because she fell right off her bed)
She's better off sleeping on the floor
She's better off sleeping on the floor (Because she fell right off her bed)
She's better off sleeping on the floor
She's better off sleeping on the floor (Because she fell right off her bed)

Josie
Yeah, my girlfriend takes me home when I'm too drunk to drive
And she doesn't get all jealous when I hang out with the guys
She laughs at my dumb jokes when no one does
She brings me mexican food from Sombrero's just because
(Yeah, just because)
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
(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

A New Hope
I've got her in my head
At night when I go to bed
And I know it sounds lame, but
She's the girl of my dreams
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]
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
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Degenerate
Crossed the street, naked at night
Bent over to show some moonlight
Pulled out some beer and I gulped it down
Nude in a gutter is how I was found
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
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

Lemmings
A freight train to the right, feeling that sting of pride
It's fucking with me, it's fucking with you
All's fair in love and war until you say it isn't but you're wrong
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
But people are what they wanna be
They're not lemmings to the sea
Maybe it's time you looked at yourself
And stop blaming life on someone else
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm Sorry
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
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 we can see
As for you, not so true
He 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
And I know it hurts
But you're just getting older
And I know you'll win
You'll do it once again
