Early April I felt your pull My favorite song was “Vital” Then it was May nothing to say My favorite song was “Yesterday” Up in my room I hid all June My favorite song was “Sixteen Blue” Then I told lies all through July My favorite song was “My Baby Cries” Early April I felt your pull Your favorite song was “Vastopol” Then it was May nothing to say Your favorite song was “Go Your Own Way” Up in my room I hid all June Your favorite song was “Who Are You” Then I told lies all through July Your favorite song was “Tell Me Why”

Superglue 01:39
You see I was kinda getting used to Being dropped and knocked around Cause I spent most of my life Drifting in and out of lost-and-founds But you Complete me like I never knew That I was broken until you Came along with your superglue You see I was pretty much a loser And a fool right from the start Cause I was put together With a ten cent brain and a punk rock heart But you You turn me into something new And all I really wanna do Is roll around in your superglue

They’re the bad boys of rock & roll

Held Back 05:30
All the other kids are having a good time All the other kids are on track All the other kids got through on the first try I’m being held back All the other kids are off for the summer All the other kids were cut slack All the other kids are off getting dumber I’m being held back 2nd grade was such a drag But man I thought I had it in the bag Then I got my report card And this is what it said

I got a bone to pick with you Yeah you done me wrong I want my money back But it doesn’t matter what I do And working too hard Gives you a heart attack But I’m through with sleeping all alone Neighbors making love through the wall I know that we don’t talk much now But there’s something I should tell you I kinda got a thing for you But you done me wrong I’m not alright with that But it doesn’t matter what I do And working too hard Gives you a heart attack There’s something I should tell you ooh Ba ba ba ba ba da da da da ooh Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
13.
Sometimes I have ideas That could change the whole world But then a bad idea comes along To have some fun ooh I’m sorry so sorry I didn’t mean to hurt anybody I’m sorry so sorry I didn’t mean to cause any trouble You give a boy a needle And he’ll find a way to pop the bubble Then everybody turns around and says That you can’t act that way anymore If you don’t get your act together We’re gonna show you the doggie door You’ll be sleeping on the floor
14.
I used to take a fall Anytime that you would call But you’ll have to do your own stunts now And I used to tell you what Color wire you should cut Now you’ll have to figure that one out Cause I won’t be here to guide you I won’t be here to hold your hand I won’t be here to remind you That I will always be your friend I might be stupid But I know what you did And I’m smart enough to say no
15.
Dream a little dream for me Cause I haven’t had a dream in a long time I wish that things would go my way but I guess that it’s just always the wrong time People tell me opportunity is Knock knock knocking at my door Hey I don’t live there anymore So pray a little prayer for me Cause my God is dead that’s what I said It’s bedtime tell me a story To put pretty ideas in my head People say tomorrow never knows And good things are worth waiting for Hey I don’t think that anymore
16.
2001 and I feel the silence in my world 1981 and I feel the silence in my world But ‘78 man How I wish how I wish you were here 1997 and I feel the silence in my world 2011 and I feel the silence in my world But ‘78 man How I wish how I wish you were here It’s you and I my friend After so many years of swimming around One of us got flushed down How I wish how I wish you were here
17.
I know that we don’t really get along Well that’s ok As long as we can talk about it As long as we can talk about it I know that we don’t see eye to eye Well that’s ok As long as we can talk about it As long as we can talk about it As long as we can talk about it Everything’s ok Everything’s ok As long as we can talk about it I know that we’re never on the same page Well that’s ok As long as we can talk about it As long as we can talk about it

20.
Limping around The same old town In June I’ll be 16 I’m too old to play But hey that’s ok As long as you’re with me It’s alright being sad Getting old getting had Going blind going dumb Turning cold turning numb When you’ve got a friend That you can depend on Then nothing bad can happen to you Current events And words between friends Heard through the grapevine You spoke with the vet The appointment is set I hope that it ain’t mine I can’t fetch or play dead I can’t jump on the bed Cause my ACL sprain And the cyst in my brain But look in my eyes And maybe you’ll realize That you need me like I need you I’m an old dog ooh But I’m a good dog And you don’t have to put me down I’m an old dog ooh I’m an old dog ooh But I’m a good dog And you don’t have to put me down I know that you won’t

We never walk We never talk We never have the time To be close again There it goes again Communication breakdown Communication breakdown Too much concern With money to burn Too many things to do Now you don’t need me And I don’t need you Communication breakdown Communication breakdown
