8. All The Small Things - (2:48)
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, 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, 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,
the night will go on,
my little windmill

1. Dumpweed - (2:23)
It's understood, I said it many ways
too scared to run, I'm too scared 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 he'd be unlike me
another guy, you think he'd want to fight me

She's a dove, she's a fucking 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 fucking 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

She's a dove, she's a fucking 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

Need a girl that I can train
need a girl that I can train
turn your back and run now
you haven't got a chance now

Need a girl that I can train
need a girl that I can train
turn your back and run now
you haven't got a chance now

4. Going Away To College - (2:59)
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 an 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?

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 an ugly place, but you're so beautiful

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 an ugly place, but you're so beautiful

6. The Rock Show - (2:52)
Hanging out behind the club on the weekend
acting stupid, getting drunk with my best friends
I couldn't wait for the summer and the Warped Tour
I remember it's the first time that I saw her there

She's getting kicked out of school cause she's failing
I'm kind of nervous cause I think all her friends hate me
she's the one, she'll always be there
she took my hand and that made it I swear

Because I fell in love with the girl at the rock show
she said "what?" and I told her that I didn't know
she's so cool, I'm gonna sneak in through her window
everything's better when she's around
I can't wait till her parents go out of town
I fell in love with the girl at the rock show

When we said we were gonna move to Vegas
I remember the look her mother gave us
Seventeen without a purpose or direction
we don't owe anyone a fucking explanation

I fell in love with the girl at the rock show
she said "what?" and I told her that I didn't know
she's so cool, I'm gonna sneak in through her window
everything's better when she's around
I can't wait till her parents go out of town
I fell in love with the girl at the rock show

Black and white picture of her on my wall
I waited for her call
she always kept me waiting
and if I ever got another chance
I'd still ask her to dance
because she kept me waiting

I fell in love with the girl at the rock show
she said "what?" and I told her that I didn't know
she's so cool, I'm gonna sneak in through her window
everything's better when she's around
I can't wait till her parents go out of town
I fell in love with the girl at the rock show

with the girl at the rock show
with the girl at the rock show
(I'll never forget tonight) with the girl at the rock show
(I'll never forget tonight) with the girl at the rock show
(I'll never forget tonight) with the girl at the rock show
(I'll never forget tonight) with the girl at the rock show
(I'll never forget tonight) with the girl at the rock show

9. Reckless Abandon - (3:06)
On and on, reckless abandon
something's wrong
this is gonna shock them
nothing to hold on to
we'll use this song
to lead you on

I learned a lot today
not sure if I'll get laid and
not sure if I'll fail or pass
kissed every girl in class
everybody would waste it all
to have a summer that they could call
a memory that's full of fun
fucked up when it's all done

On and on, reckless abandon
something's wrong
this is gonna shock them
nothing to hold on to
we'll use this song
to lead you on
and break the truth
with more bad news
we left a scar
size extra large

Sip a drink of the alcohol
end up kneeling in bathroom stalls
eyes are red and my movements slow
too high, got vertigo

He took a shit in the bathroom tub
and fed the dog brownie drugs
tried hard not to get caught
he fucked a chick in the parking lot

On and on, reckless abandon
something's wrong
this is gonna shock them
nothing to hold on to
we'll use this song
to lead you on
and break the truth
with more bad news
we left a scar
size extra large

Break a window and bust a wall
making fun of your friend's mom
turn the music up way too loud
charge the pizza to the house
everybody would waste it all
to have a summer that they could call
a memory that's full of fun
fucked up when it's all done

On and on, reckless abandon
something's wrong
this is gonna shock them
nothing to hold on to
we'll use this song
to lead you on
and break the truth
with more bad news
we left a scar
size extra large

5. Story Of A Lonely Guy - (3:40)
Push it out, fake a smile
avert disaster just in time
I need a drink, cause in a while
worthless answers from friends of mine
it's dumb to ask, cool to ignore
girls possess me but they're never mine
I made my entrance
avoided hazards
checked my engine I fell behind

Dada dada dada dada da
I fell behind
dada dada dada dada da

She makes me feel like it's raining outside
and when the storms gone I'm all torn up inside
I'm always nervous on days like this like the prom
I get too scared to move cause I'm a fuckin' boy

Remember when I was in
the grocery store, now's my time
lost the words, lost the nerve,
lost the girl, left the line
I would wish upon a star
but that star, it doesn't shine
so read my book, with a boring ending
a short story of a lonely guy

Dada dada dada dada da
who fell behind
dada dada dada dada da

She makes me feel like it's raining outside
and when the storms gone I'm all torn up inside
I'm always nervous on days like this like the prom
I get too scared to move cause I'm a fuckin' boy

Dada dada dada dada da
dada dada dada dada da

She makes me feel like it's raining outside
and when the storms gone I'm all torn up inside
I'm always nervous on days like this like the prom
I get too scared to move cause I'm still
just a stupid, worthless boy
