DUMPWEED
It's understood, I said it many ways
Too scared to run, I'm too scared to stay
I said I'd leave, I could never leave her
And if I did, you know I'd never cheat her
But this I ask, it's what I want to know
How would you feel, if I should choose to go
Another guy, you think it'd be unlikely
Another guy, you think he'd wanna fight me
She's a dove, she's a f*cking nightmare
Unpredictable, it was my mistake to stay here
On the go, it's way too late to play
I need a girl that I can train
I heard it once, I'm sure I heard it twice
My dad used to give me all of his advice
He would say "you gotta turn your back and run now
Come on, son, you haven't got a chance now"
She's a dove, she's a f*cking nightmare
Unpredictable, it was my mistake to stay here
On the go and it's way too late to play
I need a girl that I can train
She's a dove, she's a f*cking nightmare
Unpredictable, it was my mistake to stay here
On the go and it's way too late to play
I need a girl that I can train
Need a girl that I can train
Need a girl that I can train
Turn your back and run now
You haven't got a chance now
Need a girl that I can train
Need a girl that I can train
Turn your back and run now
You haven't got a chance now
DON'T LEAVE ME
Don't leave me all alone
Just drop me off at home
I'll be fine, it's not the first
Just like last time, but a little worse
And she said that I'm not the one that she thinks about and
She said it stopped being fun, I just bring her down
I said "don't let your future be destroyed by my past"
She said "don't let my door hit your *ss"
One more chance, I'll try this time
I'll give you yours, I won't take mine
I'll listen up, pretend to care
Go on ahead, I'll meet you there
And she said that I'm not the one that she thinks about and
She said it stopped being fun, I just bring her down
I said "don't let your future be destroyed by my past"
She said "don't let my door hit your *ss"
Let's try this one more time with feeling
One more time with feeling
One more time with feeling
One more time with feeling
She said that I'm not the one that she thinks about and
She said it stopped being fun, I just bring her down
I said "don't let your future be destroyed by my past"
She said "don't let my door hit your *ss"
Don't leave me all alone
Just drop me off at home
And I'll be fine
ALIENS EXIST
Hey mom, there's something in the backroom
Hope it's not the creatures from above
You used to read me stories, as if my dreams were boring
We all know conspiracies are dumb
What if people knew that these were real (real)
I'd leave my closet door open all night
I know the CIA would say "what you hear is all hearsay"
Wish someone would tell me what was right
Up all night long
And there's something very wrong
And I know it must be late
Been gone since yesterday
I'm not like you guys
I'm not like you
I am still the skeptic, yes, you know me (you know me)
Been best friends and will be 'til we die (die)
I got an injection of fear from the abduction
My best friend thinks I'm just telling lies, alright
Up all night long
And there's something very wrong
And I know it must be late
Been gone since yesterday
I'm not like you guys
I'm not like you
Dark and scary, ordinary
Explanation, information
Nice to know ya, paranoia
Where's my mother, biofather
Up all night long
And there's something very wrong
And I know it must be late
Been gone since yesterday
I'm not like you guys
Twelve majestic lies
GOING AWAY TO COLLEGE
Please take me by the hand
It's so cold out tonight
I'll put blankets on the bed
I won't turn out the light
Just don't forget to
Think about me
And I won't forget you
"I'll write you once a week", she said
Why does it feel the same
To fall in love or break it off
And if young love is just a game
Then I must have missed the kick off
Don't depend on me
To ever follow through on
Anything, but
I'd go through Hell for you and
I haven't been this scared in a long time
And I'm so unprepared, so here's your valentine
Bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody
This world's an ugly place, but you're so beautiful to me
I'll think about the times
She kissed me after class and
She put up with my friends
I acted like an *ss
I'd ditch my lecture
To watch the girls play soccer
Is my picture
Still hanging in her locker?
I haven't been this scared in a long time
And I'm so unprepared, so here's your valentine
Bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody
This world's an ugly place, but you're so beautiful
I haven't been this scared in a long time
And I'm so unprepared, so here's your valentine
Bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody
This world's an ugly place, but you're so beautiful
WHAT'S MY AGE AGAIN
I took her out, it was a Friday night
I wore cologne to get the feeling right
We started makin' out and she took off my pants
But then, I turned on the TV
And that's about the time she walked away from me
Nobody likes you when you're 23
And are still more amused by TV shows
What the hell is ADD, my friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?
Then later on, on the drive home
I called her mom from a pay phone
I said I was the cops and your husband's in jail
This state looks down on sodomy
And that's about the time that bitch hung up on me
Nobody likes you when you're 23
And are still more amused by prank phone calls
What the hell is call ID, my friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?
And that's about the time she walked away from me
Nobody likes you when you're 23
And you still act like you're in freshman year
What the hell is wrong with me, my friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?
That's about the time that she broke up with me (what's my age again?)
No one should take themselves so seriously
With many years ahead to fall in line
Why would you wish that on me, I'll never wanna act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?
What's my age again...
DYSENTERY GARY
Got a lotta heart ache
He's a f*ckin' weasel
His issues make my mind ache
Wanna make a deal
Coz I love your little motions
You do with your pigtails
What a nice creation
Worth another night in jail
He's a player, diarrhea giver
Tried to grow his hair out, friends were listening to Slayer
I'd like to find him Friday night
Hanging out with mom, trying on his father's tights
Life just sucks, I lost the one
I'm giving up, she found someone
There's plenty more
Girls are such a drag
So all you little ladies
Be sure to choose the right guys
You'll come back to me maybe
I'll shower you with lies
Got a lotta heart ache
He's a f*ckin' weasel
Decisions make my mind ache
Wanna make a deal
Ease away the problems and the pain
The girl chose the guy that makes you wanna kick and scream
All along, you wish that she would stay
F*ck the guy that took and ran away, yeah
He's a player, diarrhea giver
Tried to grow his hair out, friends were listening to Slayer
I'd like to find him Friday night
Hanging out with mom and trying on his father's tights
Life just sucks, I lost the one
I'm giving up, she found someone
There's plenty more
Girls are such a drag
F*ck this place, I lost the war
I hate you all, your mom's a wh*re
Where's my dog?
Coz girls are such a drag
ADAM'S SONG
I never thought I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest, who'd have known?
I traced the cord back to the wall
No wonder it was never plugged in at all
I took my time, I hurried up
The choice was mine, I didn't think enough
I'm too depressed to go on
You'll be sorry when I'm gone
I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside
The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over, we'd survived
I couldn't wait till I got home
To pass the time in my room alone
I never thought I'd die alone
Another six months, I'll be unknown
Give all my things to all my friends
You'll never step foot in my room again
You'll close it off, board it up
Remember the time that I spilled the cup
Of apple juice in the hall
Please tell mom this is not her fault
I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside
The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over, we'd survived
I couldn't wait 'til I got home
To pass the time in my room alone
I never conquered, rarely came
Tomorrow holds such better days
Days when I can still feel alive
When I can't wait to get outside
The world is wide, the time goes by
The tour is over, I've survived
I can't wait till I get home
To pass the time in my room alone
ALL THE SMALL THINGS
All the small things
True care, truth brings
I'll take one lift
Your ride, best trip
Always, I know
You'll be at my show
Watching, waiting
Commiserating
Say it ain't so, I will not go
Turn the lights off, carry me home
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Late night, come home
Work sucks, I know
She left me roses by the stairs
Surprises let me know she cares
Say it ain't so, I will not go
Turn the lights off, carry me home
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Say it ain't so, I will not go
Turn the lights off, carry me home
Keep your head still, I'll be your thrill
The night will go on, my little windmill
Say it ain't so, I will not go (na na na na na na na na na na)
Turn the lights off, carry me home (na na na na na na na na na na)
Keep your head still, I'll be your thrill (na na na na na na na na na na)
The night will go on, the night will go on (na na na na na na na na na na)
My little windmill
THE PARTY SONG
Do you wanna come to a party?
My friends picked me up in their truck at 11:30
This thing's at a frat house, but people are cool there
Reluctant, I followed, but I never dreamed
There would be someone there who would catch my attention
I wasn't out looking for love or affection
So I paid my 3 and the girls got in free
Shined the beer for tequila and we headed into the party
And then, in the backyard, some terrible ska band
Someone in the background was doing a keg stand
This place is so lame, all these girls look the same
All these guys have no game, I wish I would have stayed
In my bed, back at home, watching TV alone
Where I'd put on some p*rn or have sex on the phone
Far from people I hate, down from anywhere state
Trying to intoxicate girls to give them head after the party
And then, I saw her standing there
With green eyes and long blond hair
She wasn't wearing underwear, at least I prayed that
She might be the one
Maybe we'd have some fun
Maybe we'd watch the sun rise
But that night, I learned some girls try too hard
Na na na, na na na, na na na
Some girls try too hard
Na na na, na na na, na na na
And some girls try too hard to impress with the way that they dress
With those things on their chests and the things they suggest to me
I couldn't believe what this lady was saying
The names she was dropping and the games she was playing
She dated this guy who now rides for Black Flys
How she's down with the wise well-constructed disguise
Now, I'd rather go dateless than stay here and hate this
Her volume of makeup, her fake t*ts were tasteless
So I said I'd call her, but never would bother
Until I got turned down by another girl at a party
So when you see her standing there
With green eyes and long blond hair
She won't be wearing underwear and you'll discover
This girl's not the one and she'll never be fun
You should just turn and run
Because you'll find out that some girls try too hard
Na na na, na na na, na na na
Some girls try too hard
Na na na, na na na, na na na
And some girls try too hard to impress with the way that they dress
With those things on their chest and the things they suggest to me
Na na na, na na na, na na na
Some girls try too hard
Na na na, na na na, na na na
Some girls try too hard
MUTT
He pauses shaving and he tells himself that he is the bomb
She has her curlers set, her credit cards are paying the funds
He's not that old, I've been told, a strong s*xual goal
He goes out everyday, she goes every way, oh yeah
They don't even care at all
She's open, waiting for more
And I know he's only looking to score
And it is way too unhealthy, often they've typically
Been starved for attention before
She smokes a dozen and he doesn't seem to notice the smell
He took the seat off his own bike, because the way that it felt
He wants to bone this, I know she is ready to blow
They go out every night, his pants are super tight, oh yeah
They don't even care at all
She's open, waiting for more (she's open, waiting for more)
And I know he's only looking to score (he's only looking to score)
And it is way too unhealthy, often they've typically
Been starved for attention before
She's open, waiting for more
And I know he's only looking to score
And it is way too unhealthy, often they've typically
Been starved for attention before
WENDY CLEAR
Let's take the boat out on the bay
Forget your job for just one day
I wish it didn't have to be so bad
It might be inappropriate because
Either way our band gets dropped, oh yeah
I wish it didn't have to be so bad
But I'd play with fire to break the ice
And I'd play with a nuclear device
Is it something I'll regret, why do I want what I can't get?
I wish it didn't have to be so bad
The three-date theory is getting old
Everyone's getting left out in the cold
I wish it didn't have to be so bad
So I'll see you with another guy
Who pretends not to hear you when you cry, oh yeah
I wish it didn't have to be so bad
But I'd play with fire to break the ice
And I'd play with a nuclear device
Is it something I'll regret, why do I want what I can't get?
I wish it didn't have to be so bad
I'll be movin' on
Movin' on
Movin' on, on, on
Movin' on
Movin' on
Movin' on, on, on
But I'd play with fire to break the ice
And I'd play with a nuclear device
Is it something I'll regret, why do I want what I can't get?
I wish it didn't have to be so bad
I wish it didn't have to be so bad
I wish it didn't have to be so bad
I wish it didn't have to be so bad
ANTHEM
Home show, mom won't know
Run out the back door, he's passed out on the floor
Third time, been caught twice
Forgive our neighbor Bob, I think he h*mped the dog
But good things come to those who wait, coz she laid me
And mom and dad possess the key, instant slavery
No need to explain the plan, no need to even bother
I'll pack my bags, I swear I'll run, wish my friends were 21
White lies, bloodshot eyes
Breath of alcohol, stole it from the mall
How's Chris marked with lipstick
Better call their fathers, sleeping with your daughters
But good things come to those who wait, coz she laid me
And mom and dad possess the key, instant slavery
No need to explain the plan, no need to even bother
I'll pack my bags, I swear I'll run, wish my friends were 21
You don't belong, you left the kids to carry on
You planned their fall
Too bad you're wrong, don't need a mom, dad, slave drive, song
I time bomb
I time bomb
I time bomb
I time bomb
I time bomb
Turn low the radio
I think I hear my dad yelling at the band
But good things come to those who wait, coz she laid me
And mom and dad possess the key, instant slavery
No need to explain the plan, no need to even bother
I'll pack my bags, I swear I'll run, wish my friends were 21
You don't belong, you left the kids to carry on
You planned their fall
Too bad you're wrong, don't need a mom, dad, slave, drive song
I time bomb
I time bomb
I time bomb
I time bomb
I time bomb
I time bomb
I time bomb
I time bomb
I time bomb
