Lyrics (Good Charlotte 2000)

2000

Little Things

Yeah...
This song is dedicated (this is good charlotte) to every kid thats got picked last in gym class
(no what I'm sayin this is for you)
To every kid that never had a date to no school dance

To everyone who's been called a freak (Ya'all know what I'm sayin)
This is for you
Here we here we goooooooooooooooooo...
Yeah huh what come on (ya'all know what I'm talkin about ya'all know what I'm sayin)
Yeah what come on come on come on here we go...
Ohhhhhhhhhohhhhhhhhh (Come on)
Ohhhhhhhhhohhhhhhhhh (let's do this)
Here we go...
Like the time in school where we got free lunch and the cool kids beat us up (reduced lunch)
And the rich kids had convertibles and he had to ride the bus (55)
Like the time we made the baseball team but they still laughed at us (you still suck)
Like the time that girl broke up with me cause I wasn't cool enough, TRICK!

(chorus)
Thiiiiiiings, thiiiiiiings
Heeeeeere we go (lets go)
The little things, little things.
They always hang around
The little things, little things.
They try to break me down
The little things, little things.
They just won't go away
The little things, little things.
There the who I am today (go!)
You wanna hate me now...but I won't stop now
Cuz I can't stop now...

Yeah what (come on) what... yeah what(come on come on)
Here we go!
Like that time mom went to that institute cuz she was breakin down (I just can't take it)
Like the car we had that wouldn't start we had to walk to get around (uhh can I get a ride)
And that same year on christmas eve dad went to the store (i'll see you kids later)
We checked his room his things were gone, we didnt see him no more DICK!
(chorus)
Thiiiiiiings, thiiiiiiings
Heeeeeere we go (go)
The little things, little things.
They always hang around
The little things, little things.
They try to break me down
The little things, little things.
They just won't go away
The little things, little things.
There the who I am today (go!)
You wanna hate me now...but I won't stop now
Cuz I can't stop now...
(What what what here we go) hhheeerrreee we go (come on come on) here we go
The little things little things little things little things little things little things little things little things Little things little things little things little things little things little things little things here we go
Ohhhhhhhohhhhhhh ohhhhhhhohhhhhhh (echo fading)
And it always seems those little things
They take the biggest part of me
Break down...I'm breakin down...I'm breakin dowwwwwwwnnnn...

The Motivation Proclamation

The band is lazy and there's this crazy daze inside my head
You're so selfish you're not the only one who thinks he's dead
I'm paid to smile and I'm on trial for what you think I said
But I never said that everything would be okay...
And I never said that we would live to see another day
Yeah yeah

Motivate me
I wanna get myself out of this bed
Captivate me
I would good thoughts inside of my head
If I fall down would you come around
And pick me right up off the ground
If I fall down would you come around
And pick me right up off the ground

Realistic and narcissistic
You said im selfish and obscured
Try to change my try to save me
You say I gotta learn
I'm so blind
I'm out of time
You're so unkind sometimes
I never lied I never lied I never lied
And I never said
That everything would be okay
And I never said
That we would live to see another day
Yeah yeah

Motivate me
I wanna get myself out of this bed
Captivate me
I want good thoughts inside of my head
If I fall down would you come around
And pick me right up off the ground
If I fall down would you come around and pick me right up off the ground

East Coast Anthem

Walkin on the streets of D.C.
On the east coast where I live
They say "what's the problem
What's with this crazy kid"
You don't like the way I walk
Or the way I talk Or the way I swing my hands
You don't like the words I speak or the thought I think
And I know you'll never understand

But you know...
On the east coast we ride until we die
You know
Cuz there's a place inside my mind
Yeah a place you'll never find
There's a place inside my mind
We'll see today And there's a place inside my mind
Yeah a place you'll never find
There's a place inside my mind
Where we'll meet today You know...

And wouldn't it be perfect
If I could stay with you and we could
Change a thing or two
We'd change a thing or two
We would change the way you think
We would change the way I think
We would change the way they think
But we're not changin anything

You know...
On the east coast we ride until we die
You know
There's a place inside my mind
Yeah a place you'll never find
There's a place inside
You'll see today
There's a place inside my mind
Yeah a place you'll never find
There's a place inside my mind
You'll meet today You know...

Festival Song

Don't care about a thing today
I used to but I'm fed up
And I can hear the words you say
I wish that you would shut up
I got responsibility
That is my liability
A menace to society
At least that's what they say to me but

Chorus:
Tonight, tonight, it's on tonight
I don't want your boring life
And I don't want your 9 to 5
Or anyone to tell me how to live my life

People always tell me not to waste my time
To get a real job and get back in line
You can say I'll never be a millionaire
Tell me this guitar won't get me anywhere
I've got responsibility
That is my liability
I'm questioning authority
They say there's not a chance for me...

Chorus

Your future's no future
Your future's no future
Your future's no future
I control my future

Chorus x3

I'm leaving
I'm leaving
I'm leaving
I'm leaving tonight

Complicated
Alright...
Here We Go...
One time for your mind
Your body And your soul
Everytime that I rhyme
You know I'm in control
Alright
Here we go
Here we go
Here we go
And we've been here for so many years
Still it seems as if you're not there
Are you there?
Everytime I talk
You turn away
Do you care?
Isn't dad an obligation to care?
And we said
CHORUS
And we've been here for so many years
So many years
Still it seems, what?
So complicated
Yeah
Overrated
Alright
Complicated
Well this feeling is low...

Well I came through the door
Yeah I said it before
I never the stress get me down no more
Givin' thanks to the lord
Yo I pray everyday
Givin' shouts to my peeps
And this is what we say
CHORUS
You got your one little room with a black and white tv
You got your single bed and you don't wanna sleep
You're livin' all alone you're like a dog without a bone
Livin' all alone cuz you're life is so at home
Well you had a second chance but you threw it all away
You're fallin' through the sixth, now that was yesterday
Now you're sittin' at a bar just a drowning in your tears
All lonely in the corner while everybody cheers
CHORUS
six dollars in you pocket in one's a secret stash
3's for alcohol, and 2 for cigarettes

Seasons

Summer air reminds me of
All the feelings of your love
And what it was like when we were together
Walking out along the beach
You were never far from reach
And you held me through stormy weather..oh..

And I..I wanna fall in love, tonight
And I remember when you said
Everything is gonna be alright

Laying in the summer grass
You told me not to talk so fast
As I told you how I feel
You make me feel right at home
You told me I was not alone
And you knew just how I feel

I know we talked about it
I just cant get around it
I just want one more night with you

I...I wanna fallin love, tonight
And I remember when you said
Everything is gonna be alright

October air reminds me of all the seasons of you love
And what it was like when we were together...Oh
The smell of fall is everywhere
And though it seems I just dont care
Cause now youve gone away

I...I wanna fall in love, Tonight
I Remember when you said
Everything is gonna be alright...alright

I...I wanna fall in love...
I wanna fall in love...
Tonight

I Don't Wanna Stop
GO!
Yea.....yea
One two
All these games you play your messin with me head
(Your messin with me head)
And I dont know why I stay I should leave instead
(Should leave instead)
When I speak from my heart you laugh like its a game
(Well this aint no game)
Yea we make great friends but it just isnt the same

And I know this is not the way it should be
And I know you treat him like me
But I dont Wanna stop Don't wanna stop

Don't wanna stop Don't wanna stop

I don't wanna stop Don't wanna stop

Don't wanna stop Don't wanna stop

Now I don't need you to buy me pretty things
(You don't pay for me)
Pay for my tattoos or by me diamond rings
(We don't want those things)
All I know is that im happy to see you smile
(Wanna see you smile)
And it would make my day if you would just stay for awhile
(Won't you stay with me?)

And I know this is not the way it should be
And I know you treat him like me
But I dont wanna stop Don't wanna stop

Don't wanna stop Don't wanna stop

I don't wanna stop Don't wanna stop

Don't wanna stop Don't wanna stop

This has gone on for way to long
And Im tired of moving on
This has gone on for way to long.
This has gone on for way to long And I'm tired of way to long.

This has gone on for way to long

And I know this is not the way it should be
And I know you treat him like me
But I don't Wanna stop

I Heard You

Yea for all the popular kids, yea listen up..c'mon

Today I screwed up again u said I could tell in the way u said goodbye

He's really cool I get the point

I heard you
I heard you
I heard you say not a chance why dont u see
I heard you
I heard you
I heard you say your not good enough for me

Today I screwed up again
I wasnt paying attention
I walked into the wall again
I heard you laugh and saw u grin
While u sitting at your tee shirt stand
With all your cool friends
There really cool I get the point

( I don't want you)I heard you
I heard you ( I dont want you)
I heard you say not a chance why don't u see

I heard you say your not good enough for me

Today I'll give it one last try
Then I know ill wonder why

Quarterback on varsity
The football players love to turture me
So I'm feeling like im not fitting in
I know that im not fitting in with you
And your stuck up friends ..i get the point

( I dont want you)I heard you
I heard you ( I don't want you)
I heard you say not a chance why dont u see
( I dont want you) I heard you
I heard you ( I don't want you)
I heard you say your not good enough for me

Walk By

Rock and roll!
She walked down to the store at 8
The devil walks with her and he thinks shes great
When he looked at me I dont know wat I saw
I think hes trying to make me his son in law

When she walked by
Walked by Walked by
She walked on by
Walked by Walked by
Walked by
She walked on by

Egos fly and she walks by
She caught my eye on october ninth
Thats 22 days before halloween
How did I know shed be my evil queen

When she walked by
Walked by Walked by
She walked on by
Walked by Walked by
Walked by
She walked on by

My mother warned me against girls like you
She said stay away from them son you know they arent true
All there gonna do is put you under their spell
And when your going down your going straight to hell

Walk by
Walk by
Walk by
I'm gonna walk on by
Walk by
Walk by
Walk by
I'm gonna walk on by

Walk on by

Walk on by

Walk on by

Walk on by

Let Me Go

Walking in the streets outside of Washington DC
I wasted all my time and u were there with me
Back then it meant so much to have you by my side
I always had your back and you always had mind

Sayin let me go
Have some fun
Well my decision sucks to you
But I'm so young

We'd hang out late and fight just trying to have fun
We were such punk ass kids but we knew everyone
And who could see threw such blazed up blood shot eyes
There'd be a plan for us someday we'd realize

Sayin let me go
Have some fun
Well my decision sucks to you
But I'm so young

Sayin let me go
Have some fun
Well my decision sucks to you
But I'm so young

let me go
have some fun
well my decision sucks to you
but I'm so young

Screamer

Communication isn't hard when the wind can't speak
Yelling mercy to the poor, and forgiveness to the weak forever
I can't speak
A penny saved is a penny earned
When the life that you spent was the leaf that overturned

Don't forget to buckle when you fall
Beneath the pressure of the seconds
When your life became a screamer
Staring at the sea things become so small
Photopages turn the pictures on my wall
Pictures on my wall
CHORUS
Why is life such an issue in your mind
Why are the answers to my problems hard to find
So hard to find

I'm dreaming I'm a dreamer
While your screaming
At a screamer
Take out the light
Take out the light , start screaming
Take out the light
Take out the light and start screaming

I'm dreaming
I'm dreaming, I'm a dreamer
While your screaming You're screamin at a screamer
Take out the light
Take out the light ,start screaming
Take out the light Take out the light , start screaming
CHORUS
So hard to find
I'm dreaming I'm a dreamer
While your screaming
At a screamer
CHORUS
So hard to find So hard to find
Take out the light
Take out the light, start screaming
Take out the light
Take out the light, start screaming
Take out the light
Take out the light, start screaming
Take out the light
Take out the light, start screaming
Take out the light, start screaming

Change
Oh
On and on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on and on
I am lost in the see-through, think you lost yourself too
Throughout out all of this confusion
I think we'll somehow make it though
Each day just drags on by
Bringing with you a new life
Just when I think I could die
You come and bring me back to life
And you sang

CHORUS
You can't change the way you feel
And you can't tell me this ain't real, cause this is real
And in the end this all I've got
So I'm gonna hold on and on and on and on and on and on and on and
On and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on

Oh
On and on and on on and on

Now you've got me watching your eyes
Got me waiting just to see
If it goes the way it never will
Your eyes are watching me
Oh and I practice all the things I'd say
To tell you how I feel
And when I finally get my chance it all seems so surreal
And now you got me thinkin 'bout the first time I met you
And now I can't forget you
No I won't forget you

CHORUS
