listen to the mp3
when I came to college
i said here is my chance
to finally try my hand
at romance
but all the girls went underground
i’m just trying to track them down
in class there are so many
i don’t know what to say
but when i get the guts
the bell rings and they run away
walking down to saga
she looks pretty she looks sweet
then she turns around and
oh-wait that’s Pete
it’s my night for a stakeout
so i camp out on the berm
i don’t see any women
just a couple a million germs
a groups reported sighted
so we’re going out tonight
to wander all around and ok
stalk until daylight
We know all the differences
Between the two genders
Yeah that’s the only test
For our new members

five o’clock on friday
he’s headed to get his kids
stop lights and trains slow him
and he frowns as he skids
’cause two weeks have ticked by
and he hates being alone
so he smiles as he pulls in front
of what used to be his home
and the kids yell back to mom
do we really have to go
cause it’s no fun, a waste of time
and we love you more, you know
(chorus)
they don’t really mean to hurt him
but they do it the same
but he hides his tears behind his eyes
and he calls them out by name (because he loves them)
9 am on sunday
He’s waiting for his kids
in the auction for their time
He finally has the highest bid
cause all week he was there
but they acted all alone
finally their parking in front
of a building they call his home
they whisper to themselves
do we really have to go
cause it’s no fun, a waste of time
and it’s nothing that we don’t already know
we have divorced ourselves
from the only one who truly cares
all week he’s by our side
and we pretend that he is not there

i came here a simple boy
and i’m leaving about the same
but i’ve grown to love some things
that i thought i’d never tame
i used to sleep reluctantly
for i did not what to know
the things that lie ahead
but now I wait on tomorrow
for these times can change a man
God don’t let my ego out grow your hand
oh these times can change a man
so God don’t let my ego outgrow your hand
when i run to you hold me close
out of harms way
hold me tighter still tell me to stay
when i try to run away
(bridge)
this time has changed me
but God don’t let me live my life in captivity
this time has moved me but
right back there with you is where i long to be
I came here a simple boy
Just following your call
now i’m an individual
who can’t hear your voice at all

i found out today that my dog died
don’t worry, it was his time to go
i just wish it hadn’t taken to so long
i even had to reload
it must have been Old Yeller
that movie messed with my head
one second i just watching it
and the next my dog was dead
old yeller killed my dog
i thought it was pretend
old yeller killed my dog
now i have no more best friend
old yeller killed my dog
that movie messed with my head
subconsciously
i put it on pause just to get a snack
how was i to know everything was gonna turn south
what a shock when i got back
my dog was foaming at the mouth
i took him out back just like the movie
’cause he must have been rabid
that movie never mentioned
drooling could be just a bad habit

i try to be honest
but sometimes i lie
i try to be fair
but i have judgmental eye
i try to be friendly
but sometimes i’m mean
i try to keep my wickedness
to myself and unseen
and i try to act like i don’t hear when people say…things
i try to act like their words don’t sting
that’s right i’m not feeling alright tonight
that’s right everything is not ok
did you see me when i cried – did you happen to hear me sigh
oh i can’t keep anything from you…
but i try
i try to be good
but i always turn up bad
i try to be happy
but it always makes me mad
i try to ignore
all my faults all my needs
but it’s hard to forget
what everyone else can see
i try to believe these chains they set me free
i try to act like it doesn’t bother me
oh i don’t see you cryin’ here with me
oh i don’t see you dyin’ here with me
why can’t i see you died for me?
