Hey, I guess I'll figure it out
The reasons why things went the way they did
And why we can't accept it
We'd fall asleep
But not before we exercise the evil thing that everyone hides
We would lie there in my bed
Do you remember all those nights we never slept?
No clothes, sweaty, doing all the things I never thought I'd do
And I did them with you

And hey, don't feel bad
No one can ever take away the boardwalk trips
Or the subways
I think we grew up past the hang-ups and the evil stares,
The **** you too's and I don't care's

We would lie there in my bed
Do you remember all those nights we never slept?
No clothes, sweaty, doing all the things I never thought I'd do
And I did them with you

Hey, I guess I'll figure it out
The reasons why things went the way they did
And why we can't accept it
We'd fall asleep
But not before we exercise the evil thing that everyone hides

We would lie there in my bed
Do you remember all those nights we never slept?
And even though we brought it crashing to an end
I loved it all, and now I love my friend
I loved it all, I love the girl, I love my friend

 

 

traffic lights turning yellow:
a kiss and a slap on the roof.
i taught you that superstition
driving downtown
with the windows down.

late at night, talking over
a broken radio.
and i kiss my fingers,
and our single headlight
winks out for the last time.
we talk about
the last time it felt right to make out.

and i'm certain, if i drive into those tress,
it'd make less of a mess
than you've made of me.

 

You’re 17, evil and mean, comfy and cozy nowhere scene
You can’t deny the loser inside all of your bad taste won’t subside

You’re outta sight keep me up at night you dress funny strapless and skin tight
You’re outta sight you keep me up at night you make me crazy you wear it out of spite
Ban the tube top tonight
You’re magical mystery girl tick tock you don’t stop rockin’ my world
You give high fives to all the guys you let me know that I'm alive

You’re outta sight keep me up at night you dress funny strapless and skin tight
You’re outta sight you keep me up at night you make me crazy you wear it out of spite
Ban the tube top tonight
There's a party that were all invited to but I don't care because I hate everyone in school
I ignore all the girls but you
Beautiful girl, ugly shirt you are a fashion red alert
But I can’t resist, you've never been kissed and I've never been in love like this

You’re outta sight keep me up at night you dress funny strapless and skin tight
You’re outta sight you keep me up at night you make me crazy you wear it out of spite
Ban the tube top tonight

 

You really think
that your bigger than this
to the tune of ten thousand lisps
who'd of thought i'd represent
when i can't take a compliment
overexposure is the key
and any focus on me
is appreciated
and it should be

no wonder now
i finally found
the right formula for

you taught me how
to play the fool
every mistake that i make
i couldn't have made without you
what's said is done
it's plain to see
you take it all too seriously
here's all you get from me

what better way
to make an honest mistake
than a televised hand of fate
when the world closes in on you
a decision would be overdue
now nothing is left out of hand
a stronger jaded man stands
and if the world is ending
we toast to it

i'm stronger now
but not with out
the right formula for

you taught me how
to play the fool
every mistake that i make
i couldn't have made without you
what's said is done
it's plain to see
you take it all too seriously
here's all you get from me
her'es all you get from me

i'm down for whatever
what's there left to wait for
i'm down for whatever
what's there left to wait for
wait for
i'll wait

you taught me how
to play the fool
every mistake that i make
i couldn't have made without you
what's said is done
it's plain to see
you take it all too seriously
here's all you get from me!
