I Don't Wanna Rock Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

It really sucks to give your heart to a girl
You want to know her like she knows the whole world
But 10 seconds in, it's obvious, your going nowhere...

She makes you tell her that she's your best friend
You tell her things you know won't make her mad
Don't want to be the one to say things are going nowhere...

Where are you now?
Where are you now?

I don't wanna talk
I don't wanna rock
I don't wanna wait by the phone, and,
I don't wanna tell you I love you
don't wanna tell you I love you, anymore!!!

It's hard to live outside her safety zone
Cause you remember being all alone
Two kinds of misery and either way, you're going nowhere...

Where are you now?
Where are you now?

I don't wanna talk
I don't wanna rock
I don't wanna wait by the phone, and,
I don't wanna tell you I love you
don't wanna tell you I love you, anymore!!!

And she makes me want to be a homosexual
Maybe I'll be her best friend, maybe see her naked once in a while

I don't wanna talk
I don't wanna rock
I don't wanna talk
I don't wanna rock
I don't wanna wait by the phone, and,
I don't wanna tell you I love you
don't wanna tell you I love you, anymore!!!

Nebraska Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

It seems like I should know better
I guess I don't know much
When I'm alone I'm everything
But I'm not well beneath it all

Stop staring over my shoulder
Just let me breathe in peace now
Cause all I ask for is a....date

One date to shine
One date to leave it all behind
One date, yea!
One date to myself
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

It seems like I should know better
I guess I don't know much
When I'm alone I'm everything
But I'm not well beneath it all

Stop staring over my shoulder
Just let me breathe in peace now
Cause all I ask for is a....

One date to shine
One date to leave it all behind
One date, yea!
One date to myself
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

One date to shine
One date to leave it all behind
One date, yea, yea, yea!
One date to myself
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Self-centered Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

I got it stuck in a bind
I don't even know why
It sucks to even try
But I won't try anymore

She took the afternoon train
To find a different plane
But life down the drain
Better than being ignored

[Pre Chorus:]
I think I'm taking a vacation now
I'm on holiday and maybe I won't rest
Until I've thrown it all away
Yeah I've got it down

[Chorus:]
I'm gonna feel sorry for myself
I want to blame it on everyone else
I want to be self centered
And make everybody feel sorry for me

She sent a postcard again
She said she had a new friend
I hope that by the end
He throws her heart to the floor
She says he's really ok
I really hope that he's gay
It's not a nice thing to say
But I don't care anymore

[Bridge:]
My leg fell asleep
Cause you laid on it
There's no reason to dwell on it
It's just not worth it
Remember a year ago
When we played in the show
Now get outta my head

Hang On Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

I used to see you every morning
Even when I didn’t want to
You used to like to watch us play downtown
As long as I sang a song for you

[chorus]
But nothing stays the same
And it’s driving me insane
Oh, you know we’ve got it so bad
And nothing you can say
Can make me want to stay
But still your hanging on

You say you never saw this comin’
So why does it always fall on you
I think you call me every time you se a phone
You hang up but I know it’s you

The Gilligan's Island Theme Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale,
A tale of a fateful trip,
That started from this tropic port,
Aboard this tiny ship.

The mate was a mighty sailing man,
The skipper brave and sure.
Five passengers set sail that day,
For a three hour tour, a three hour tour.

The weather started getting rough,
The tiny ship was tossed,
If not for the courage of the fearless crew,
The minnow would be lost, the minnow would be lost.

The ship set ground on the shore of this uncharted desert isle,
With Gilligan,
The Skipper too,
The millionaire and his wife,
The movie star,
And The Rest,
Here on Gilligans Isle.

The Bare Necessities Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities
Old Mother Nature's recipes
That brings the bare necessities of life

Wherever I wander, wherever I roam
I couldn't be fonder of my big home
The bees are buzzin' in the tree
To make some honey just for me
When you look under the rocks and plants
And take a glance at the fancy ants
Then maybe try a few

The bare necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to you!

Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities
That's why a bear can rest at ease
With just the bare necessities of life

Now when you pick a pawpaw
Or a prickly pear
And you prick a raw paw
Next time beware
Don't pick the prickly pear by the paw
When you pick a pear
Try to use the claw
But you don't need to use the claw
When you pick a pear of the big pawpaw
Have I given you a clue ?

The bare necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to you!

So just try and relax, yeah cool it
Fall apart in my backyard
'Cause let me tell you something little britches
If you act like that bee acts, uh uh
You're working too hard

And don't spend your time lookin' around
For something you want that can't be found
When you find out you can live without it
And go along not thinkin' about it
I'll tell you something true

The bare necessities of life will come to you

Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities
That's why a bear can rest at ease
With just the bare necessities of life

The bare necessities of life will come to you

On An On (about You) Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

I'm happy again to be stuck here again
And you're so happy again to be stuck here again
Now we can rap about "the good old days"
Laugh at dumb jokes that you make
It's great to be here and

I'm just elated to be someone you once hated
And its all so complicated
Maybe this time you can come outside your little world
Make out with another girl
If it were up to me

[CHORUS]
I'd like to buy you flowers everyday
Make everyday a holiday
Carry on and on and on about you and the things you do
The things you do

Im so sorry again you say you're leaving me again
Cause you're not happy again
And I'm left stuck here again
Now you can scream about the little things
Slap me twice across the face
Man it would be great if I could

[CHORUS]

[CHORUS]

[Chorus (in Spanish)]

Suckerpunch Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Here she comes again with another boyfriend,
introduces me and says,
“this is the sweetest guy I’ve ever known.”
Couldn’t say a word. I never say a word.
She wraps her arms around my neck.
“You are the sweetest guy I’ve ever known.”

And I say again “THIS IS THE LAST TIME”

[chorus]
When you left before I didn’t care too much
Cause I just wished you’d go away
And I see you now and it’s just too much
Takes my breath away ... Just like a suckerpunch

There she goes again she says I’m her best friend
and “were better off this way” she says
cause your still the sweetest guy I’ve ever known.
Her smell stays on my shirt, I can’t say a word
can’t swallow this lump inside my neck
cause you’re still the sweetest girl I’ve ever known.

And I say again ......
And I said before.....
And I say once more “THIS IS THE LAST TIME”

The Bitch Song Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Is it OK if I speak to you today
You’ve been pissed off for a week now
but, nothing I can say could make you look up.
or crack up. Is there anything that I can do
Anything to show you

[chorus]
You’re a bitch
but, I love you anyway
OH OH You can’t sing
But, you still put me to sleep
Baby, You’re a bitch
Hey Hey Hey Hey
You make me sick
But, don’t ever go away

So you tell me that there’s nothing left to say
I drive you face the window
Then you’re in my face telling me to grow up
I wish you’d grow up
I can’t wait until you fall asleep, I wonder if you know
that
[chorus]

[BREAK]

[chorus]

Yeah you’re a bitch but I love you anyway
So why don’t you...... Stay

She's Got A Boyfriend Now Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

She used to be the happiest girl I knew
I remember seeing her laugh
I remember the time she cried
When tears filled her eyes
As we sang 'Love Song' by Tesla
Her smile is turning upside down
She's got a boyfriend now

[Chorus:]
She's got a boyfriend now
And it's hard to see
What she's got herself into
She's getting used to
The loneliness that's bottled up
Inside she knows
She'll make it through the sad times
And all the bad times
Cuz it's up to her to make some sense somehow
She's got a boyfriend now

She always knew she'd find the right guy
To hold her through the night
Someone she'd take to meet her mom
And take her to see Brittany Spears
Who knows if Clark Kent is a Superman?
Or if he's just an asshole
Leading on and on
And on and on
And on

[Chorus]

Why does it always seem to be
Guys like that always get to be the one
She thinks the world of
And why does it always seem to me
That girls like that can't ever find someone
Someone like me
And its hard to know the difference between inside and out
When she asks if I can mend her broken heart
I wouldn't know where to start.

She got what she always wanted
She got what she always wanted
And now

She's only crying on the inside

[Chorus]

Down For The Count Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Ladies and Gentlemen, in this corner weighing in at 131lbs
I'm sorry girl, 126lbs, the girl that broke my heart.
Isn't she lovely folks, Just look at that smile
Draws me in everytime

Someone call a medic cuz I think she's gonna strike again
She slammed down the phone and gave the finger to the nightstand
And holds the picture in the heart shaped frame we bought at target
Yes I think we've got a problem but I can't put my finger on it

It seems like you told me I'm in over my head
But all I remember is making out constantly
If I don't get out then I'll probably end up dead
She's the undisputed champ of my world

Down for the count, over and out
Toss in the towel cuz she really got the best of me
I can't hang around, she kicks while I'm down
What was that sound?
I just wish the fucking bell would ring

Let's get ready for verse #2
The message on my cell says she's waiting on the call from me
to tell her that I'm sorry I can come back if I crawl
But I got bad knees and I can't say that I'm sorry
Cept I'm sorry that I met you
Now my guard's up and I'm fighting dirty

It seems like you told me I'm in over my head
But all I remember is making out constantly
If I don't get out then I'll probably end up dead
She's the undisputed champ of my world

Down for the count, over and out
Toss in the towel cuz she really got the best of me
I can't hang around, she kicks while I'm down
What was that sound?
I just wish the fucking bell would ring

7 8 9 10 Knockout

It seems like you told me I'm in over my head
But all I remember is making out constantly
If I don't get out then I'll probably end up dead
She's the undisputed champ of my world
Undisputed champ of my world and I'm begging to be

Down for the count, over and out
Toss in the towel cuz she really got the best of me
I can't hang around, she kicks while I'm down
What was that sound?
I just wish the fucking bell would ring

I'm Gay Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

(This fucking song is all personality)
(Dude, that's the shit!)

Well we've all heard about
how the guys in the band
Weren't the popular kids in school
And now you hate your parents
'cause of the way you turned out
But in the end the blame's on you

And we all sympathize with your torn-apart heart
And your really artistic worldly views
It sells records when you're sad these days
It's super cool to be mad these days

I think rock and roll is really funny
when it's serious

Don't hate us 'cause we're happy
Don't hate us 'cause we're beautiful
Don't hate us if we make you smile
Or if we go the extra mile
To make someone feel better
on a really shitty day
And if you're hearing what I'm saying then
I want to hear you say, "I'm gay!" (I'm gay!)
Say, "I'm gay!" (I'm gay!)

Let's start a movement, let's start it right now
And if you don't know where to start
I can show you I'm your new team captain
Put your left hand over your heart
and repeat after me

It's perfectly fine to be a happy individual
It's perfectly fine to be a happy individual
Chris, Gary? You guys wanna join in?
(Yeah, buddy. Sure. Sorry Dude)
It's perfectly fine to be a happy individual
It's perfectly fine to be a happy individual
Very Nice. Very Nice.

Don't hate us 'cause we're happy
Don't hate us 'cause we're miserable
Don't hate us if we make you smile
Or if we go the extra mile
To make someone feel better on a really shitty day
And if you're hearing what I'm saying then
I want to hear you say, "I'm gay!" (I'm gay!)
Say, "I'm gay!" (I'm gay!)

That's right, ladies and gentleman!
Pick up the phone
'cause Bowling For Soup is on the line!
And you don't have to be sad anymore!
You don't have to be mad anymore!
We can all join hands and do ring around
the freaking rosie!
In fact, can we can get some "La la"s up in here?

It sells records when you're sad these days
It's super cool to be mad these days
I think rock and roll is really funny
When it's serious

Yo, where my "La la"s at!

La la-la la, la-la la-la
La la la la
La la-la la, la-la la-la
La la la la
La la-la la, la-la la-la
La la la la
La la-la la, la-la la-la
La la la la
La la-la la, la-la la-la

Everyday's A Saturday Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

You know Monday was manic
Tuesday was worse
I've gotta say Wednesday for the sake of this verse
And Thursday
Was actually pretty OK
For once
Don't even talk about Friday night
You know i didn't get laid
And i didn't fight with my girlfriend
'Cause I don't have one
Anymore

And now you won't have me to push around
Won't have me to kick around
I won't be here for the run around
No, oh, no-o-o-o

I'm sleeping in
I'm taking the day off
I'm tired of running round
Like a chicken with it's head on the chopping block
I just wanna fly away
To where everyday's a Saturday
For me
From now on

Monday I slept till 4pm
On Tuesday I took up the violin
And Wednesday
Yes Christina Ricci's hot
Thurday I quit the violin
And Friday here we go again
It's the weekend
Come on everyone join in

And now you won't have us to push around
Won't have us to kick around
We won't be here for the run around
No, oh, no-o-o-o

I'm sleeping in
I'm taking the day off
I'm tired of running round
Like a rat in a marathon
If I'm gonna run
I just wanna run away
To where everyday's a Saturday
For me
From now on

From now on
I'm not gonna wear your uniform
Gonna live off of movie popcorn
(can't work the line out sorry)
Brad Pitt was in true romance
And look how far he's gone

And now you won't have us to push around
Won't have us to kick around
We won't be here for the run around
No, oh, no-o-o-o

I'm sleeping in
I'm taking the day off
I'm tired of running round
Like a chicken with it's head on the chopping block
I just wanna fly away

I'm sleeping in
I'm taking the day off
I'm tired of running round
Like a rat in a marathon
If I'm gonna run
I just wanna run away
To were everyday's a Saturday

For me
From now on

For me
From now on

Cody Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

I know you don't come from here
Believe me i'm very aware
and i'm sorry
You were a sad little girl
Who got caught up in this world
And i'm sorry
sorry, because we're sorry all the time

You think you're everything
some broken-hearted martyr queen
lThe reason for the setting sun
Believe me you're the only one
(only one)

She's the only one who knows
so off the little queenie goes
to flaunt her ill-begotten diamonds
and her elevated nose
My numbers in her pocket,
told her call me up sometime
Now there's just no pleasin queenie,
since queenie lost her mind [x2]

I tried to write a song
to rule out all the wrong
And i'm sorry
see girl let's go on a date
to a movie or rollerskate
And i'm sorry
Better luck next time

You think you're everything
some broken-hearted disco queen
The reason for the setting sun,
believe me you're the only one

She's the only who knows
so off the little queenie goes
to flaunt her ill-begotten diamonds
and her elevated nose
My numbers in her pocket
told her call me up sometime
now there's just no pleasin queenie,
since queenie lost her mind [x2]

She's the only oe who knows
so off the little queenie goes
to flaunt her ill-begotten diamonds
and her elevated nose
My numbers in her pocket
told her call me up sometime
now there's just no pleasin queenie,
since queenie lost her mind

When We Die Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Well, I know that it's early
And it's too hard to think
And the broken empty bottles
Are reminder in the sink
But I thought that I should tell you
If it's not to late to say
I could put back all the pieces,
They just might not fit the same

Nothing's worth losing
Especially the chance to make it right

And I know that we're gonna be fine
And the tattooed mistakes
Are gonna fade over time
As long as we live, time passes by
And we won't get it back when we die

Well, I know it's been years now,
And I don't look the same
And the hopes and dreams you had for me
You thought went down the drain.
And the room feels so empty
where my pictures used to be
And I can't say that I blame you,
But you can't blame me

Cuz nothing's worth losing
Especially the chance to make it right

And I know that we're gonna be fine
And the tattooed mistakes are gonna fade over time
As long as we live, time passes by
And we won't get it back when we die

Come over
Come over

Cause I gotta know,
If I am doing this all on my own

Come over
Come over

How can I show you if you're not here

And I know that we're gonna be fine
And the tattooed mistakes
Are gonna fade over time
As long as we live, time passes by
And we won't get it back when we die

And I know that we're gonna be fine
And the tattooed mistakes
are gonna fade over time
As long as we live, time passes by
And we won't get it back when we die

Come over
Come over

Wooohooohooohaaaaawwww

Cold Shower Tuesdays Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Her finger traced I love you
In the palm of my hand
That's still the only time
My belly's ever hit the floor like that

Your feet in my lap
We drove the past
Knowing we would turn around again

[Chorus:]
Tell her I'm not sorry
Mention my Ferrari
Just don't tell her that
I miss her
She wanted in
I wanted out
And that's the last thing we talked about

Remember how our hands matched
Love lines, same size
I guess I should have checked
To see the lifelines were in line

I called on the phone
You still felt alone
And talked about the songs that made you cry

[Chorus]

Campfire cookies
And John Hughes movies
Jr. mints & cold shower Tuesdays
November shivers and rearview mirrors
And the little things like that

[Chorus]

Belgium Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Lately I feel so small
Or maybe it’s just that my bed has grown
I never noticed it before but you were there
So how was I to know

[bridge]
That this single bed
was always meant for two
not just anyone
it was meant for me and you

[chorus]
and now you’re halfway around the world
and I’m just a day behind
Nothin seems to fill the hole
That I have since you left my side
You’ll always be my little girl
Though I can’t hold you tonight
And now you’re halfway round the world
And I’m just a day behind

I wake up in the night
I turn around and find that you’re not there
I just like to watch you sleep and lay by you
I love to feel you near
I think I’m going crazy
Everyday confusion starts to grow
I never noticed it before
But you were there so how was I supposed to know

Jimmy Neutron Theme Song Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

From here to the stars,
With my candy bars,
Rides a kid
With a knack
For inventions.

A super-powered mind,
A mechanical canine,
He rescues the day
From sure destruction.

He's gotta save the world
And get to school on time,
So many things to do
And not much time

So off the ground,
Up in the air,
Out into the atmoshpere,

Who can we count on?
Jimmy Neutron!
Who can we count on?
Jimmy Neutron!
Who can we count on?
Jimmy Neutron!

No matter where you are,
You know he can't be far,
Watching the world
Through x-ray vision

And whenever he's around,
Where adventure can be found,
You know that Jimmy Neutron's
On a mission

He's gotta save the world
And get to school on time,
So many things to do
And not much time

So off the ground,
Up in the air,
Out into the atmoshpere,

Who can we count on?
Jimmy Neutron!
Who can we count on?
Jimmy Neutron!
Who can we count on?
Jimmy Neutron!
Who can we count on?
Jimmy Neutron!
Who can we count on?
Jimmy Neutron!
Who can we count on?
It's Jimmy Neutron!

Life After Lisa Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

I'm waking up and bakin'
Watching the parade cause today's the day I got over you
Taking out the trash and the pictures that I stashed
Of the two of us in 1992

You stole my heart when Eddie Veder was king
I gave you a foot massage I gave you my ring
You left me for a drummer cause you said I couldn't sing
But, That's ok

[CHORUS]
Cause there'll be
No more mountain climbing in the rain
No more Long hair clogging up the drain
No more Life will never be the same
Life after Lisa is not so bad at all

Saw you with the dude who gave us our first tattoos
Did he cover up my name that was fast
Can you believe that I'm alive, still not working 9 to 5
And my little band is kicking some ass

So when you asked me if I hated you now
It's not you it's just all of the times I missed out
On sleeping with your roommate every time you passed out
But, That's ok

[CHORUS]

I'll bet you're saying to yourself that you'll find somebody else like me
But all I've gotta say is there ain't no fucking way that you're getting me to say
I'm sorry..........Not today!!!

[CHORUS]
Cleaning up the house again
Listening to House Of Pain
Having headaches in my brain
Listening to you complain
Shopping at the mall again
I'm out of rhymes I've gotta say
Life after Lisa is not so bad at all!!!!

Bipolar Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Oh no here we go,
here we go again
You were so afraid
you let me back in
Back in thru a door
you had long forgot
Its resistance is shot,
mine was not
But I waited..
my complicated,overrated girl
You know that I hated,we suffocated
and Overstated everything
Why can't you be bi-sexual instead of bi-polar?

Oh look there she goes
There she goes again
She keeps on checkin out
Checkin out her friends
I swear you'll never know
Know what's on her mind
Wish she'd given in
At least one time, Cuz

I waited..
my complicated,overrated girl
You know that I hated,we suffocated
and Overstated everything
Why can't you be bi-sexual instead of bi-polar?

Get up get up, whatcha doing in bed
I think it's all in your head
Get up get up, no don't sleep sunday morning
And there's a whole world around you gotta let in
Especially the girls, we all like the girls

I waited..
my complicated,overrated girl
You know that I hated,we suffocated
and Overstated everything
Why can't you be bi-sexual?
Why can't you be bi-sexual?
Why can't you be bi-sexual?
instead of bi-polar

Boulevard Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Back there somewhere
I can hear her calling out
I’ve got so much I can tell her
She knows I miss her,
I know she thinks about me too
I just cannot wait to kiss her

[bridge]
On the boulevard we danced
I tell her if I get the chance
Just what all this means to me
Maybe I should say we can run away
Never look back
Never doubt it

[chorus]
You don’t owe me anything
I owe everything to you
Take my hand and
Hold on.

I think she likes me
I can see it in when she laughs
She wont say it but I see it
Loves to wake me
Just to see if I’m asleep
Or just to tell me to move closer

I Melt With You Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Moving forward using all my breath,
Being friends with you was never second best,
And I saw the world crashing all around your face,
Never really knowing it was always mesh and lace.

I'll stop the world and melt with you
You've seen the difference and it's getting better all the time
And there's nothing you and I won't do
I'll stop the world and melt with you

(You should know better) Dream of better lives the kind which never hate
(You should see) Trapped in a state of imaginary grace
(You should know better) I made a pilgrimage to save this human's race
(You should see) Never comprehending a race that's long gone by

(Let's stop the world) I'll stop the world and melt with you
(Let's stop the world) You've seen the difference and it's getting better all the time
And there's nothing you and I won't do
(Let's stop the world) I'll stop the world and melt with you

The future's open wide

I'll stop the world and melt with you
(I'll stop the world) You've seen some changes and it's getting better all the time
And there's nothing you and I won't do
(I'll stop the world) I'll stop the world and melt with you

The future's open wide

I'll stop the world
I'll stop the world
I'll stop the world

I'll stop the world and melt with you
(I'll stop the world) You've seen the difference and it's getting better all the time
And there's nothing you and I won't do
(I'll stop the world) I'll stop the world and melt with you

I'll stop the world and melt with you (I'll stop the world and melt with you)
I'll stop the world and melt with you (I'll stop the world and melt with you)

Dance With You Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

What’s it mean to be alone now
How’s it feel to be by yourself
You got me, I didn’t get you back
then you got me, again

[chorus]
You got inside through a hole in my defenses
and how you fit I’ll never understand
but you got into me, and I got into you
and now, I wanna do it again

How’s it feel to know now
whatcha think ‘bout that
you got me, now we can’t go back
you’ll never get me again

I only wanna dance with you
I only wanna dance with you

You go up down turn around merry go round and
round
shake it shake it two times dose doe cotten eyed joe
run around pull me down never gonna come around
I’m never gonna forget you

I Don't Know Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

I'm on my way to west hall
And i don't know
What you're thinkin when i show up
You invite me in
I sit and stare at the walls
Full of pictures
Of the people and the places, you hold dear

Sitting on the porch swing later
Our fingers will be cold
I could have used some chapstick
But i found something better to use

You make me lose track of time
for just an hour
That we gained the night before
Daylight savings time

Sitting on the porch swing later
Our fingers will be cold
I could have used some chapstick
But i found something better to use

It all went by so fast
I forgot
Take a picture from a shoebox
Before i go away

Friday Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Tuesday seemed like it was Thursday
Yesterday i came back down
Standing there
Just like the fool i know i'd become
I realize that i'm aware

Once again i see the sunshine, yeah
And i wipe the sleep out of my eyes
Well i wake up to find the world has not stopped turning
And i, and i am gonna be alright

And i lost way too much in you
Now i don't know what to do
oh-oh-oh
I broke down
Just like i have so many times before
Now i see that nothing has changed
oh-oh-oh
And lately things
Have turned around back where they were before
And i got too much on my mind
Mind...

Tuesday seemed like it was Thursday....Whoa
Yesterday i came back down
Standing there
Just like the fool i know i'd become
I realize that i'm aware

And i lost way too much in you
Now i don't know what to do
oh-oh-oh
I broke down
Just like i have so many times before
Now i see that nothing has changed
oh-oh-oh

And lately things
have turned around back where they were before
And i got too much on my mind
Mind....

Five O' Clock World Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Up every mornin' just to keep a job
I gotta fight my way through the husslin' mob
Sounds of the city poundin' in my brain
While another day goes down the drain

But it's a five o'clock world when the whistle blows
No one owns a piece of my time
And there's a five o'clock me inside my clothes
Thinkin' that the world looks fine, yeah
Holiday, yeah...

Tradin' my time for the pay I get
Livin' on money that I ain't made yet
Gotta keep goin', gotta make my way
While I live for the end of the day

'Cause it's a five o'clock world when the whistle blows
No one owns a piece of my time
And there's a long-haired girl who waits, I know
To ease my troubled mind, yeah
Holiday, yeah...

In the shelter of her arms everything's okay
She talks and the world goes slippin' away
And I know the reason I can still go on
When every other reason is gone

In my five o'clock world she waits for me
Nothin' else matters at all
'Cause everytime my baby smiles at me
I know that it's all worthwhile, yeah
Holiday, yeah... [x3]

[Fade]

High School Never Ends Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Four years you think for sure
That’s all you’ve got to endure
All the total dicks
All the stuck up chicks
So superficial, so immature
Then when you graduate
You take a look around and you say HEY WAIT
This is the same as where I just came from
I thought it was over
Aw that’s just great

The whole damn world is just as obsessed
With who‘s the best dressed and who‘s having sex,
Who‘s got the money, who gets the honeys,
Who‘s kinda cute and who‘s just a mess
And you still don’t have the right look
And you don’t have the right friends
Nothing changes but the faces, the names, and the trends
High school never ends

Check out the popular kids
You’ll never guess what Jessica did
How did Mary Kate lose all that weight
And Katie had a baby so I guess Tom’s straight
And the only thing that matters
Is climbing up that social ladder
Still care about your hair and the car you drive
Doesn’t matter if you’re sixteen or thirty-five

Reese Witherspoon,
She’s the prom queen
Bill Gates,
Captain of the chess team
Jack Black, the clown
Brad Pitt, the quarterback
I’ve seen it all before
I want my money back

The whole damn world is just as obsessed
With who’s the best dressed and who’s having sex,
Who’s in the clubs and who’s on the drugs,
Who’s throwing up before they digest
And you still don’t have the right look
And you don’t have the right friends
And you’re still listen to the same shit you did back then
High school never ends

High school never ends

The whole damn world is just as obsessed
With who‘s the best dressed and who‘s having sex,
Who‘s got the money, who gets the honeys,
Who‘s kinda cute and who‘s just a mess
And I still don’t have the right look
And I still have the same three friends
And I’m pretty much the same as I was back then
High school never ends

High school never ends

High school never ends

Here we go again

Love Sick Stomach Ache (sugar Coated Accident) Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

I woke up today.
That was my first mistake.
Woulda been better off
In the middle of a dream
I was havin' bout a brighter day.
Yesterday, I gave my heart away.
By the middle of the day,
You could search for a sucker
and buy it now on ebay.

[CHORUS 1]
Hold your head up and face the day.
Seems like everybody's got a way
to say "I'm doing OK."
I'm OK as long as you're happy-
Without me.
Without my hand- to hold.
Without my jacket- to keep you warm when you're cold.
Oh yeah you're cold.
Popsicle lovin, pie crusts,
Promises, ice cream kisses
That I'm really gonna miss you.
Smithsonian, peppermint,
Sugar coated accident, empty locker, cavity,
And now we're just history.
And this is all I ever wnated.
I can take the heartbreak.
Can I get something for my lovesick stomache ache?
I threw up today.
I kinda sorta prayed
To go back in time and rewrite these lines
But I'll settle for a Bloody Mary.
"What's that?" you say.
You say you're not so OK.
Looin down from the top of a 30-foot drop.
That's exactly what you wanted.

[CHORUS 2]
Hold your head up and face the day.
Seems like yesterday you got your way.
But I am doing OK.
What's that you say?
You say you're not really happy without me.
Without my hand- to hold.
Without my jacket
To keep you warm when you're cold.
This is all I ever wnated.
I can take the heartbreak.
Can I get something for my lovesick stomacheache?
And this is much more than I needed.
(Can I have some Ginger Ale?)
I feel the agony of the defeated.
(Tell her she can go to hell.)
And if you really wanna make me feel better
Just don't let her take the sweater
I was wearin when I met her
Cause I know she's gonna say it was hers.
But it's mine. That shit is mine.

Popsicle lovin, pie crusts,
Promises, ice cream kisses
That I'm really gonna miss you.
Smithsonian, peppermint,
Sugar coated accident, empty locker,
Cavity, and now we're just history. [x3]

Thirteen Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Pinch my arm because I'm dreamin'
Better get me out of here
Once again my head is screamin'
Gotta get her off my mind

She's stayin'
And I'm prayin'
That she doesn't know what's on my mind
When she's around
She's stayin'
Complaining
Cause she doesn't know what's on my mind
When she's around

Suddenly I've got this feeling
I can't stop it anymore
Wake me again I'm dreamin'
Gotta get this off my mind

She's stayin'
And I'm prayin'
That she doesn't know what's on my mind
When she's around
She's stayin'
Complaining
Cause she doesn't know what's on my mind
When she's around

Pinch my arm because I'm dreamin'
Better get me out of here
Once again my head is screamin'
Gotta get her off my mind

She's stayin'
And I'm prayin'
That she doesn't know what's on my mind
When she's around
She's stayin'
Complaining
Cause she doesn't know what's on my mind
When she's around

London Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

I hate you
The things you do
I love you
The things you do

And we've got things so confused
I feel neglected and abused
Man, you've got me so confused
Cause I'm so caught up in you

So I I've got London on my mind
Did you cry another time?
I've got London on my mind
Did you look so satisfied?

I hate you
The things you do
I love you
The things you do

And we've got things so confused
I feel neglected and abused
Man, you've got me so confused
Cause I'm so caught up in you

So I I've got London on my mind
Did you cry another time?
I've got London on my mind
Did you look so satisfied?

The things you do

And we've got things so confused
I feel neglected and abused
Man, you've got me so confused
Cause I'm so caught up in you

So I I've got London on my mind
Did you cry another time?
I've got London on my mind
Did you look so satisfied?

Scope Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

I don’t know
when it all began to simmer down. Suddenly I don’t
want you around
And I’m sitting here
I’m drowning in the worries and the fear
And now I wish it wasn’t quite as clear.

Cause I am starting to forget now
It disappears so fast
I am waiting for “the Question” to be asked.
And if you saw me now
you’d not be disappointed
somehow I’ve gotten to a point
and I’m not ever coming back
my minds made up I’m staying for as long as it has taken

(to get)
Close to you, I wanna get, Close to you and
I need more time, (I wanna get)
Close to you, I just want, Close to you and
I’m not sure why!

Sometimes I
I get up in the morning so surprised.
It takes me some time to realize
Lately I,
Have really wished that you were still around.
Here to pick me up off of the ground.

2113 Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Had to kiss you one more time
so i followed you home
And i almost lost you at the light
i've seen you a couple of times
But i had no idea
that you would be mine tonight

I was to meet another girl
but she didn't show
And you asked if i was alone, oh
The night came to an end
I had to kiss you one more time
so i followed you home, oh

I'm just a boy, i'm on the side
Yeah believe me i don't mind
I'm just a boy, not quite your type
That don't matter much tonight

Yeah you asked if you could call
but you didn't write it down
So i thought that we were through
And when you said "hello"
I could not believe
that i got a call from you

It's lik candy in a bag
you can put it on a shelf
It's there when you need a taste, oh
Sweetness makes you weak
Don't eat it everyday
Just don't let it go to waste, yeah

I'm just a boy, i'm on the side
Yeah believe me i don't mind
I'm just a boy, not quite your type
That don't matter much tonight

I'm not sure where i stand
You call me when you want me
And i'll take you out again, yeah
Hear ya got another guy
I guess it makes you happy
Call me a special friend

I'm just a boy, i'm on the side
Yeah believe me i don't mind
I'm just a boy, not quite your type
That don't matter much tonight

I'm just a boy, i'm on the side
Yeah believe me i don't mind
I'm just a boy, not quite your type
That don't matter much tonight
tonight, tonight...

Live It Up Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Me, I never had a clue.
But now me, I've got you.
Me and you've got something that has long been overdue.
I hope you hang around, and baby, we'll get down.
We'll get down and boogie, and we're gonna paint the town.

So honey take my hand.
Could I please have this dance...
I'm all in...
I'm gonna live it up... Right now.
Everybody give it up... Right now.

You know it's been too long
It's been too long,
It's been too long,
Since I've felt this way.
It's been too long
It's been too long,
It's been too long
I guess I've never felt this way...

You, such a dream come true.
To me a dream is you.
I love to watch you laugh and sing like only you can do.
So won't you hold my hand,
And save me your last dance...
I'm all in...

We're gonna live it up... Right now.
Everybody give it up... Right now.

You know it's been too long
It's been too long,
It's been too long,
Since I've felt this way.
It's been too long
It's been too long,
It's been too long
I guess I've never felt this way...

And I'll be your happy ever after, you'll be mine.
And now my whole world's brighter with you here by my side...

Everybody live it up... Right now.
Everybody give it up... Right now. (Let's live it up right now...)
Everybody live it up... Right now. (Let's live it up right now...)
Everybody give it up... Right now. (Let's live it up...)

You know it's been too long
It's been too long,
It's been too long,
Since I've felt this way.
It's been too long
It's been too long,
Too long
Since I've felt this way
Since I've felt this way
I guess I've never felt this way.

99 Biker Friends Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Such a big man, such a little chick.
I think it all goes back to your tiny
Pick- up truck in the driveway,
With a sticker on the window
"Rest in Peace Number 3".
Tell all your friends
How you put her in her place.
7 pounds of makeup
Just to hide her beat up face.
Such a pretty face.

[CHORUS]
It takes a tough man to slap her around.
Such a bad guy to keep such a good girl down.
She's wearing shades
Behind the tinted glass.
And I've got 99 biker friends
That wanna kick your ass.

Tell her that you're sorry.
Blame it on the beer.
Your dad was mean to you.
Your friends think you're an asshole
And I do too.
Over compensatin' for your small shoes.
Takin her away, but you won't say when.
Hold her in your arms,
Tell her this won't happen again.
When will this end? Well

[CHORUS]

I wish Bruce Lee was here right now
With his trusty nun-chucks
Chuck Norris is still alive,
So let's call up Walker, Texas Ranger,
All the dudes from "Danger, Danger".
Let's get the A-Team,
50 Cent with his bling-bling,
And a couple of prison guards.

[CHORUS]

Start runnin' now.
We're gonna kick your ass!

Running From Your Dad Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Remember the summer time we were swinging
On the front porch out in the rain
It was Sunday you were all dressed up again
Then we made out under the window pain

[Chorus]
And I can still see your dad
Running after me with a shovel in his hand
I don't remember much after that
La la la la, la la la la, Oh oh oh oh...
La la la la, la la la la, Oh oh oh oh...

Remember on Christmas Eve you were crying
I guess you didn't really like the gifts
Porno DVDs and see thru under wear
I should have saved all that for your sis

[Chorus]

So I guess I'll just run away, run away, run away
He's starting to catch up
Run away, run away
I think I might throw up
Run away, run away

[Chorus]

Scaring Myself Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

She slams the front door
Cuz she knows that I can't stand it
Gives me the finger
Cuz she knows I'm wrapped around it.
She calls me sweetheart
Cuz she knows it makes me weak.
She stepped in dog pooh
And I'm still kissing her feet.

Can you believe how this girl
Treats me like a king?

[Chorus:]
She took more than she gave to me
I gave my love, I got an STD
And if she comes home,
I hope that she'll marry me.
I want to tell her that it's over now
Hey look, I'm arguing with myself
I think that my girlfriend
Is bad for my mental health
And now I'm scaring myself.

The roller coaster makes me sick and she knows it.
That's why she always insists that I go on it
She told my friends that I need therapy
I need a self-help group or a lobotomy

Can you believe how this girl
Treats me like a king?

[Chorus]

I'm waking up
I'm getting out.

[Chorus]

Next Ex-girlfriend Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

I don’t wanna meet your dad
Don’t wanna hump your sister
Don’t wanna do it to your best friend either
I don’t want you messin around and givin me a blister
And leave me illin for the penicillin

When you walk out I don’t wanna feel left out
Cuz sooner or later its just over, over

I don’t wanna get inside your mind or your pants
I don’t wanna waste my time with love and romance
I want my next-ex-girlfriend, my next-ex-girlfriend
I don’t want the fairy tale and
I don’t want the girl from hell
Don't wanna be your biggest mistake
You can be my next-ex-girlfriend, my next-ex-girlfriend

I don’t wanna learn to dance don’t wanna rent the limo
I know your thinking I’m a weirdo
I just want the bragging rights I want to let the world know
Convince my friends I’m not a homo

When you walk out I don’t wanna feel left out
Cuz sooner or later its just over, over

I don’t wanna get inside your mind or your pants
I don’t wanna waste my time with love and romance
I want my next-ex-girlfriend, my next-ex-girlfriend
I don’t want the fairy tale and
I don’t want the girl from hell
Don't wanna be your biggest mistake
You can be my next-ex-girlfriend, my next-ex-girlfriend

Tell everyone im good in the sack
But all your friends were giving you flack
And you just couldn’t put up with that
So no your never taking me back

I don’t wanna get inside your mind or your pants
I don’t wanna waste my time with love and romance
I want my next-ex-girlfriend, my next-ex-girlfriend
I don’t want the fairy tale and
I don’t want the girl from hell
And I don’t want to spend the time
And I don’t need no valentine
My next-ex-girl friend, my next-ex-girlfriend

Valentino Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

She got a valentine from Gary
I opened it up it said, “Would you please be mine.”
I gave her flowers and some candy
She opened them up and said, “You’re trying to
make me fat.”

[chorus]
(now)
I just want a new girlfriend
I just want someone to make me laugh
I just want a new girlfriend
I just want someone to laugh at me

not to smart, not to tall,
likes to watch tv and play basketball

I bought a car and let her drive it
She opened the door and said “ Oh bother, this is
red.”
I gave her all my notes from algebra
She opened em up and said , “I can’t believe you’re
so stupid.”

I won’t ever make her wash my car, NO!
I won’t ever take a walk, not unless she’s there
Oh, oh, oh, oh!

Get Happy Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

She packed her shit and she left for the city
On the 8:10 train and I still can't believe it
Man, I don't even know how we could let this happen
She slammed the door and she gave me the finger
And we fell so fast I still can't remember
You can read it yourself, it's all in the letter
Man, I don't even know how we could let this happen

Maybe you're right
we've had a good time
I'll sit around, you get yourself a new life
Go get your spot, go find your smile and get happy

Heard your back did you find what was missing?
Was it just that easy or were you mistaken
Man, I don't even know how we could let this happen
I don't even know how we could let this happen

Maybe you're right
We've had a good time
I'll sit around you get yourself a new life
Go get your spot, go find your smile
And just let it shine tonight wherever you are
I hope there's a spot (hope there's a spot)
Save me a smile
And get happy, yeah
Happy, yeah
Happy, yeah

Maybe you're right
We've had a good time
I'll sit around you get yourself a new life
Go get your spot, go find your smile
And just let it shine tonight wherever you are
I hope there's a spot (hope there's a spot)
And save me a smile
And get happy
Get happy, yeah
Get happy, yeah

Packed her shit and she left me (find your smile)
Slammed the door and she gave me (find your smile)
Guess she's back in the city (find your smile)
Man, I just hope you're happy

All Figured Out Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

I was the one who had shit for brains
I never took the time to notice
that I was always wrong and you weren't
You were the one who gave up sp many things
Took you for granted
But you understanded
It was just a phase

[bridge]
And I’ve got a new direction
A blueprint for erection of a new life
It’s such a simple situation
Some kind of masturbation
With a new twist
I don’t know why

[chorus]
I’ve got it all figured out
We can ,make it
And I’ll never let you down
Just take my hand
And understand
There’s a lot of tomorrows
I let you down
You had no complaints
Watched as the world went spinn’
Around wihout you
You waited for me
You wanted diamonds
I came up with rollerblades
Shot down again but you smiled
Shook your head
And knew that I changed

Shut-up And Smile Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Its not the end of the world
In fact its not even the end of the summer
But thank god the tv is on
Cuz theres no way we could know
Anything that’s goin down
Or how were supposed to be feeling about it
I cant tell you how much I wish we could shut up and smile, yeah

Sail around the world and tell them all to keep singing it
la la la la la la
all we needs a harmony and we’ll convince the world to sing
la la la la la la
throw your arms around someone (throw your arms around someone)
maybe spread a little love
I know it sounds a little dumb (or maybe I’m a little drunk)
But all we need is some ice cream and a hug

Take a good look around
Does life really suck
Are we just complaining
I hope that this mic is on (testing 1, 2)
Cuz im on a roll here
I hope this is making some sense
I hope that you’ll throw up your hands and sing it
And tell all the haters that they should just shut up and smile, yeah

Sail around the world and tell them all to keep singing it
la la la la la la
all we needs a harmony and we’ll convince the world to sing
la la la la la la
throw your arms around someone (throw your arms around someone)
maybe spread a little love
I know it sounds a little dumb (or maybe I’m a little drunk)
But all we need is some ice cream

All we need is love and beer
And old school metal and holiday cheer
TO be happy
(All you need is someone near)
like ben and jerry
(to hold you close and pretend that they care)

can we all just, get along now
we found something that we all have in common now
we can hold hands, do keg stands
water skiing sounds great to me now

Sail around the world and tell them all to keep singing it
la la la la la la
all we needs a harmony and we’ll convince the world to sing
la la la la la la
throw your arms around someone (throw your arms around someone)
maybe spread a little love
I know it sounds a little dumb (or maybe we’re a little drunk)
But all we need is some ice cream and a hug

(Chanting “All we need is love and beer”)
all we need is some ice cream and a hug
all we need is some ice cream and a hug
all we need is some ice cream and a hug

Last Rock Show Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Stand in line behind me
We've got tons of time to
Let it all hang out
And cast the demons out.

Once we're in the roof falls
I heard that we have got to raise it up
And let the fucker burn.

And this is sure to take awhile
But if we're going out, we're goin' out with style
So we all jump around, and we fall to the ground
Like it's the last rock show of our lives.

Friends Like You Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

Friends like you!
Who needs friends?
Friends like you!
Who needs friends?
Friends like you!
Who needs friends?
Friends like you!

You know ya left the window open
And now the cat is gone
And my girlfriend says
you're really sweet what the hell is going on?
You never gave me back my leather jacket
And now it's out of style
And I warned you that that instance
Would set my house on fire

Now i'm not going to beat you up
Or drag you through the mud
I just want all my CD's back
In the cases with the hard work still intact
Friends like you!
Who needs friends?
Friends like you!
Who needs friends?
Friends like you!
Who needs friends?
When friends like You-o-o-ou
Who needs friends?

Like when the guy put you in Reno,
Had a lawyer for a dad.
He got ours mixed up and sued my ass.
Man that was really cool
Of you to fix me up with a girl from work
That used to be a guy
When you lost all my money on the superbowl
It made me WANT TO CRY!
I'm not going to beat you up
or drag you through the mud
When the pending file sharing suit goes down
And why'd you need
The whole Metallica catalog anyway?
We haven't liked them for ten years.
We like the Queers, we like beers
Stuck with Van Halen through the shitty years.
Now its over
YEAH!

You know ya left the back door open
AND NOW THE DOG IS GONE
And my girlfriend says you're really sweet
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?
And you never gave me back
My leather jacket and now it's outta style
I should have beat you
With your burkenstock
When you set my house on fire!
FRIENDS LIKE YOU!
Who needs friends?
Friends like you!
Who needs friends?
When friends like you-o-o-ou
Like you-o-ou who needs friends?

A Friendly Goodbye Lyrics By Bowling For Soup

I can lay it on real thick
But I know how you don't like to get bogged down
With anything 'bout us
And our kick ass true love tale
Sorry I swore just then
Cause I know you hate it
And by the way that cake you baked me really sucked
But I ate it

[Chorus]
Cause I loved you
Even more that you could ever imagine
Here's a friendly goodbye
5,6,7
Ain't that a "b" with an itch
Ain't that a mother trucker
You can go to h-e-double hockey sticks
And f yourself
Cause I'm flippin' gosh darn sick
Of all the "s" words you put me through
So f-u
F-u

I can hang it out to dry
Cause I know how you like all your laundry neat
And not just thrown around
Like a chain saw in need of juggling
Sorry I flipped you off cause I know,
That you hate it
And that homemade porn I said that I erased
Well I saved it

[Chorus Repeat]

I'll send you a post card that says
I'm glad you're not here
I'll buy you a t-shirt
But I'll use it to wipe up the beer
That I spilled
While I was spilling my guts
To my friends about you
And I really don't have anything else nice to say

[Chorus Repeat]
