/Home/Photos/Lyrics/Facts/News/Touring/Trivia/Links/

1.Dumpweed

It's understood, I said it many ways

To scared to stay

I said I'd leave, but 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 want to fight me

She's a dove, She's a fucken 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

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 got to turn your back and run now

Come on son, you haven't got a chance now

She's a dove, She's a fucken 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

Turn your back and run now

You haven't got a chance now

--------------------------------------------------

2.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

She said that I'm no 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 you in the ass."

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

Let's try this one more time with feeling

-----------------------------------------------

3.Aliens Exist

Hey mom there's something in the backroom

I hope it's not the creature 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

I'd leave my closet door open all night

I know the CIA would say

What you hear is all hearsay

I 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

Been best friends and will be till we die

I got an injection

Of fear from the abduction

My best friend thinks I'm just telling lies

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, parnoia

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

-----------------------------------------------

4. 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 and 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 ass

I'd ditch my lecture to watch the girls play soccer

Is my picture still hanging in her locker?

-------------------------------------------

5. What's My Age Again?

I took her out it was Friday night

I wore cologne to get the feeling right

We started making out and she took off my pants

But then I turned on the TV

And that's about the time that 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 caller 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 your 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?

What's my age again?

That's about the time she broke up with me

No one should take themselves so seriously

With many years ahead to fall in line

Why would you wish that on me?

I never want to act my age

What's my age again?

What's my age again?

-----------------------------------------------

6.Dysentery Gary

Got a lotta heart ache

He's a fucken weasel

His issues me my mind ache

Want to make a deal

Cause 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

When friends were listening to slayer

I would like to find him Friday night

Hanging out with mom and trying on his fathers tights

Life just sucks, I lost the one, I've 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 fucken weasel

Decisions make my mind ache

Want to make a deal

Ease away the problems and the pain

The girl chose the one guy who makes you want to kick and scream

All along, you wish that she would stay

Fuck the guy who took and ran away

He's a player, diarrhea giver, tried to grow his hair out

When friends were listening to slayer

I would like to find him Friday night

Hanging out with mom and trying on his father's tights

Fuck this place, I lost the war, I hate you all,

Your mom's a wh***

Where's my dog?

Girls are such a drag

---------------------------------------------

7.Adam's Song

I never thought I'd die alone

I laughed the loudest who'd have known?

I trace 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 I'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 set 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

But 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

-------------------------------------------

8.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·

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·

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, turn the lights off, carry me home

Keep your head still, I'll be your thrill, the night will go on, my little windmill

-----------------------------------------------

9. The Party Song

Do you want to come to a party

My friends picked me up in their truck at 11:30

This things at a frat house but the people are cool there

Reluctant I followed but 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

Shine the beer and 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 thse 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 porn 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

Some girls try too hard

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 the games she was playing

She dated this guy who now rides for Black Flys

How she's down with the Îwise well constructed disguise

Now I'd rather go dateless than stay here and hate this

Her volume of makeup her fake tits 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 blonde 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

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

10.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 sexual goal

He goes out everyday she goes every way oh yeah

And 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 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

And 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

--------------------------------------------

11. 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 get dropped

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 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 is 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

I wish it didn't have to be so bad

I'll be moving on

-----------------------------------------

12.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 humped the dog

But good things come to those who wait

Cause she laid me

And mom and dad posses the key ö instant slavery

No need to explain the plan no need to even bother

I'll pack my bags I swear I'll run ö 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

Cause she laid me

And mom and dad possess the key ö instant slavery

No need to explain the plan no need to even bother

I'll pack my bags I swear I'll run ö wish my friends were 21

You don't belong, you left the kids carry on

You planned their fall

To bad you're wrong, don't need a mom dad slave drive song

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

Cause she laid me

And mom and dad posses the key ö instant slavery

No need to explain the plan no need to even bother

I'll pack my bags I swear I'll run ö wish my friends were 21

You don't belong, you left the kids carry on

You planned their fall

To bad you're wrong, don't need a mom dad slave drive song

I time bomb
