i know you're telling me lies but i believe them anyway
i got a one-track mind but the track's going the wrong way
if i keep looking up then everything'll be ok
i got a foot in my mouth but i think i know what to say
i don't want to be the man on your lunchbox
i just want to be the straw in your juicebox
i don't want to be the bomb in your mailbox
i just want to be the scrap in your shoebox
i know you're telling me lies but i believe them anyway
i got a one-track mind but the track's going the wrong way
my train of thought is derailed by the wheels keep on spinning
i see you on tv and "the wheel" keeps on winning
i don't want to be the man on your lunchbox
i just want to be the straw in your juicebox
i don't want to be the bomb in your mailbox
i just want to be the scrap in your shoebox
this is what you get when you ride the short bus to school
the benefits of a liberal arts education
got down on my knees and praying
asked god to stop hesitating
my face is worth animating for all to see in cartoon form
i'm gonna sell locks of my hair
want my name in your underwear
kids cereal for kids who care, that their parents won't allow
i don't wanna be live under the sea, i just wanna be me
i just wanna know i'm on every show and own the radio
hide my teeth in platinum plating
i'm so tired of player-hating
i don't know if you were waiting for me or for anyone
i don't wanna be live under the sea, i just wanna be me
i just wanna know i'm on every show and own the radio
i just wanna sell-out
...and pay off all my college loans
captain america and his sidekick zero
when i was a little kid they said
they couldn't understand my head
nor any of the words i said.
well i don't know much but i think this one's true
you know you're looking for what's wrong with me
well maybe something's wrong with you
all the time spent inside waiting rooms and cars
from doctors' offices to bars
if there's truly life on mars you're stanger than it.
it is raining cats and dogs out there
everybody might well stell
but your prescription headgear suits you well
i can't lie, this happens all the time
and i can't choose not to steal your shoes just to smell your feet
because you make dysfunction sweet
they took me to mexico to see
if swimming in the open sea
couldn't maybe cure me.
they took me to hear the dolphins sing
they told me dolphins are playful things, but i don't know about that
flipper burst my water wings
i can't lie, this happens all the time
and i can't choose not to steal your shoes just to smell your feet
because you make dysfunction sweet
don't let this get to you, don't let this get to me
i got better things to say, better things to be
no i don't mind this, i don't mind this much
don't let this get to me, don't let this get to me
i got better things to say, better things to be
all i need is god and my pharmacist
no i don't mind this much
at least i got comicbooks to read...
when i was a little kid they said
they couldn't understand my head
nor any of the words i said.
well i don't know much
i know you and you've seen me before
i don't kick ass but i'll take names at your door
tonight we're sleeping on the floor
i've met your friends and seen your wall of shame
i just want in your d&d roleplay game
you probably think i'm pretty lame
i never wanted much, just to feel your touch
it's my inability to talk to girls
it's alright, it's ok
it's just fine anyhow, anyway
it's all there is i have to say
am i hip enough to be hip to you
i'll show you mine if you show me yours too
you've got enough baggage for two
i never wanted much, just to feel your touch
it's my inability to talk to girls
you say it's all over before i got started looking for my four-leaf clover
you've seen my junk, now here's my heart
yeah, it's all my fault...
i never wanted much, just to feel your touch
it's my inability to talk to...
you say it's all over before i got started looking for my four-leaf clover
you've seen my junk, now here's my heart
there will always be sunshine when your heart is within mine
except if it's after nine, that's my bedtime.
and if you don't really mind, i'd be happy to rewind
and make sure it's back on time.
on and on and on and on...
can i have a ride home in your car?
i rode my bike here, it's kind of far
i missed the last bus, it's getting late
i gotta be back before dad's back from his date
i cannot find my knapsack
you've got chalkdust on your back
i'll get the juice, you get
the snack
on and on and on and on...
you gave me detention, i wanna give it back
you caught me smoking not smoking crack
i told the boys we made-out, i swear that was it
when you wear that white shirt we can all see your tits
staying after class is not as cool as i thought in daydreams during school
a hundred zillion times up on the board
i promise i will not say one more word
on and on and on and on...
and all you know don't mean anything if all you know just ain't good enough
'cause all you get is just one chance and after that kiss your ass goodbye,
and your mother too. tie your shoes, 'cause what you're all about just ain't right.
hold your breath, cross the streams and hope egon's right.
all i've seen is all i know
running as fast as i can go and my feet never touch the ground
in love with gravity
yeah it's alright in a fight to run or hide in a homemade shower curtain rod costume,
or so i've heard. cruisin' for a bruisin' in the yellow one is cooler.
no one saw "ishtar"but i did, yeah, i did.
all i've seen is all i know
running as fast as i can go and my feet never touch the ground
in love with gravity
rocks in my shoes to keep me down
the rocks in my shoes the only sound 'til i fall and hit the sky
in love with gravity
i don't trust gravity
i think bill murray is the coolest camp counselor ever
i don't think you like this much
and my vcr head
and the horse you rode in on
don't touch my betamax
is this how you want it to be?
it's better this way
don't trust gravity
and my vcr head
