Reel Big Fish Album

You and I are mortal, but rock and roll will never die.

Ha, ha

I never felt too good,
But in this world who would?
I was always thinking
Something wasn't right
But then you came along and
Helped me sing a song and
Now I feel okay
I hope it can stay this way

You know we've got a good thing going
And I don't want to see it end
Good thing
You know we've got a good thing going
And I don't want to see it end

Are these the good days
That I've heard so much about?
There goes the heartbreak
That I can live without, oh oh oh

I've been so frustrated
Bitter, mean, and jaded
I've taken for granted
All the things I've got
But now that you are here
This anger disappears
And I feel happy too
This is sappy, but it's true

You know we've got a good thing going
And I don't want to see it end
Good thing
You know we've got a good thing going
And I don't want to see it end

Are these the good days
That I've heard so much about?
There goes the heartbreak
That I can live without

Are these the good days
That I've heard so much about?
There goes the heartbreak
That I can live without

Heartbreak I can live without
Heartbreak, heartbreak
I can live, live without

One, two, three, ow!

Good thing
You know we've got a good thing going
And I don't want to see it end
Good thing
You know we've got a good thing going
And I don't want to see it end


Are these the good days?
You know we've got a good thing going
Are these the good days?
And I don't wanna see it end
Are these the good days?
You know we've got a good thing going
Are these the good days?
And I don't wanna see it end

Yeah, yeah, yeah
You know we've got a good thing going

Yeah, yeah, yeah, whoo!
And I don't want to see it end

Hey! Yeah, yeah, yeah
Good thing
You know we've got a good thing going

No no, no no, no no, no no, oh
And I don't want to see it end

Good thing
You know we've got a good thing going
And I don't want to see it end
Good thing
You know we've got a good thing going
And I don't want to see it end

Huh!

All of my friends
They're not my friends
A knife in the back
Felt it again
What did I do?
Was it so wrong?
Used to fit in
Now I don't belong

I think somebody loved me once
I think somebody loved me once
I think somebody loved me once
But I cannot remember why

My confidence
Is stuck in my throat
When you lay blame
I'm your scapegoat
Ears burning red
I heard what you said
You smile at my face
But you wish I was dead

I think somebody loved me once
I think somebody loved me once
I think somebody loved me once
But I cannot remember why

Wow!

I think somebody loved me once
I think somebody loved me once
I think somebody loved me once
But I cannot remember—

I think somebody loved me once
I think somebody loved me once
I think somebody loved me once
But I cannot remember why

Why!

You're seventeen
Evil and mean
Comfy and cozy, nowhere scene
You can't deny
The loser inside
All of your bad tastes won't subside

You're outta sight
You keep me up at night
You dress funny
Strapless and skintight
You're out of sight
You keep me up at night
You make me crazy
You wear it out of spite
Ban the tube top tonight!

You're magical
Mystery girl
Tank top, you don't stop a-rocking my world
You give high fives
To all the guys
You let me know that I'm alive

You're outta sight
You keep me up at night
You dress funny
Strapless and skintight
You're out of sight
You keep me up at night
You make me crazy
You wear it out of spite
Ban the tube top

There's a party that we're
Not invited to
But I don't care because
I hate everyone in school, oh oh
I ignore all the girls but you, oh yeah

Aw, hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

Beautiful girl
Ugly shirt
You are a fashion red alert
But I can't resist
You've never been kissed
I've never been in love like this

You're outta sight
You keep me up at night
You dress funny
Strapless and skintight
You're out of sight
You keep me up at night
You make me crazy
You wear it out of spite

You're outta sight
You keep me up at night
You dress funny
Strapless and skintight
You're out of sight
You keep me up at night
You make me crazy
You wear it out of spite
Ban the tube top
Ban the tube top
Ban the tube top tonight
Tonight, oh yeah, woo!

Ha ha, I'm sorry, I went to Mars for a second, but I'm back now and I've got T-shirts for everybody!

You say you're down
You can't loose that frown
Life sucks!
What else is new?
That's tough!
There's not much you can do

You're not the only one
Not having any fun

I've got a funny feeling
We're all born to lose
And I've got a funny feeling
That this life ain't worth living through

I've been depressed
And I get so stressed
Life sucks!
I don't wonder why
That's tough!
I just keep on trying

So I won't be the one
Not having any fun

I've got a funny feeling
We're all born to lose
And I've got a funny feeling
That this life ain't worth living through

I'm not giving up yet
That's not the end of me
But it's not gonna be all right
You'll see, you'll see, hey!

I've got a funny feeling
We're all born to lose
And I've got a funny feeling
That this life ain't worth living

I've got a funny feeling
We're all born to lose
And I've got a funny feeling
That this life ain't worth living

I've got a funny feeling
(I've got a funny feeling)
I've got a funny feeling
(I've got a funny feeling)
I've got a funny feeling
(I've got a funny feeling)
I've got a funny feeling
Cheer up!

You called me up last night in tears
And said you missed me after
All these years
I've been waiting here so long
I've gotten over it since
You've been gone

You called me late last night again
And said you're finished with
Your new boyfriend
Asked if you could come back home
So sorry that you left me
All alone, well...

You say you love me
Love me again
But if you love me
Where have you been?
You say you need me
More than anyone else
Well, go to hell
Where have you been?

You showed up at my door today
And said, "My friend, why do you
Push me away?"
Your life with him was just so dull
But what we had was something
Wonderful, well...

You say you love me
Love me again
But if you love me
Where have you been?
You say you need me
More than anyone else
Well, go to hell
Where have you been?

No way, you wish
I don't need this
What makes you think
I'd ever want you again?
Yeah right, as if
I don't need this
What makes you think
I'd ever want you again?

You called me late last night again
And said you're finished with
Your new boyfriend
Asked if you could come back home
So sorry that you left me
All alone, well...

You say you love me
Love me again
But if you love me
Where have you been?
You say you need me
More than anyone else
Well, go to hell
Where have you been?

You say you love me
Love me again
But if you love me
Where have you been?
And if you love me
Where have you been?
And if you love me
Where have you been?
And if you love me
Where have you been?

"I wanna say it."
"This one is for all the suckers—"
"I wanna say it."
"—who still believe in love."
"Let me say it."
"Shut up!"
"Let me say it."
"Oh, fine."
"Thi-this... What do I say?"
"Ughh."

Hey, everybody
I've got something to tell
It's what I learned from relationship hell
Lust turns to disgust
A heart of gold into rust
A soft touch to a slap in the face
It gets old
It goes away

This one's
For all the suckers who still believe in love
This one's for you
This one's
For all the suckers who still believe in love
This one's for you

It never works
But we keep trying like fools,
Learning and breaking the rules
At first you're excited
Then you're less than delighted
By the end you want them to drop dead
It can't last
It's gone so fast

This one's
For all the suckers who still believe in love
This one's for you
This one's
For all the suckers who still believe in love
This one's for you

Sucker, sucker, sucker, sucker
Sucker, sucker, sucker, sucker
Sucker, sucker, sucker, sucker
Sucker, sucker, sucker, sucker

This song is brought to you in part by all the suckers who still believe in love. This one's for you!

This one's
For all the suckers who still believe in love
This one's for you
This one's
For all the suckers who still believe in love
This one's for you
This one's for you
This one's for you
This one's for you
This one's for you
This one's for you
This one's for you
This one's for you

"Oh, sugar buns..."
"Yes?"
"This one's for all the suckers who still believe in love."
"Ha ha ha ha."
"This one's for you!"

Well, guess what?
They found out about me (guess what?)
You can't count on me (guess what?)
I hate to be wrong

Well, guess what?
All those things I said (guess what?)
It wasn't what I meant (guess what?)
I hate to lead you on

I've got a lot of bad things
I wish that I had never done
'Cause they're coming back
Coming back to me now

And I've got a lot of bad things
I wish that I had never done
'Cause they're coming back
Coming back to me now

Whoa yeah
I'm not your friend
You don't know me
And I, I don't care about you, woo hoo

I lied
And that's the awful truth (I lied)
Guess it was no use (I lied)
I hate to be wrong

I lied
The things inside your head (I lied)
Wishing I was dead (I lied)
'Cause I did you wrong

I've got a lot of bad things
I wish that I had never done
'Cause they're coming back
Coming back to me now

But don't think I feel guilty
Or that I'll apologize
'Cause I got my way
And that means I was right

Whoa yeah
I'm not your friend
You don't know me
And I, I don't care about you

I've got a lot of bad things
I wish that I had never done
'Cause they're coming back
Coming back to me now

But don't think I feel guilty
Or that I'll apologize
'Cause I got my way
And that means I was right
Whoa yeah, yeah, yeah!

I've got a lot of bad things
I guess that I should never've done
'Cause they're coming back
Coming back to me now

But don't think I feel guilty
Or that I'll apologize
'Cause I got my way
And that means I was right

Whoa yeah, yeah
I'm not your friend
You don't know me
And I, I don't, I don't care about you

Uh, uh
Uh, uh
Uh, uh
Uh, uh

I gotta go, gotta go
Before I do something stupid
I gotta go
I gotta go, gotta go
Before I do something lame

I know it's your fault
That I'm in the mess I'm in
And you think I'm cool
But I don't, man

And maybe, it's too soon (it's too soon)
But I think it's too late (it's too late)
But things like bad timing just won't wait

Maybe it's not right
I have a girlfriend
Made a friend tonight
Who is a girl and
I just wanted to talk to you
But then I started wondering
If she's the one or not

So I gotta go, gotta go,
Before I do something stupid
I gotta go
I gotta go, gotta go
Before I do something lame

Maybe it's not right
I have a girlfriend
Made a friend tonight
Who is a girl and
I just wanted to talk to you
But then I started wondering
If she's the one or not

Uh, uh
Uh, uh
Uh, uh
Uh, uh

Well, I know flirting is nothing
And it should be where it ends,
But I know, yes I know
That I want you for more than a friend
More than a friend

Maybe it's not right
I have a girlfriend
Made a friend tonight
Who is a girl and
I just wanted to talk to you
But then I started wondering
Oh yes, I started wondering
If you're the one, ha ha

So I gotta go, gotta go,
Before I do something stupid
I gotta go
I gotta go, gotta go
Before I do something lame

I gotta go, gotta go,
Before I do something stupid
I gotta go
But I know, I know
That it's too late

We are the dateless losers, yeow!

We are all on our own
With no one by our side
You are so lucky, beautiful and bright

All the cool kids go steady
They're making out at twelve
We sit in our rooms alone by ourselves

It's Friday
No phone call
Nobody asked us out

We are the dateless losers
Lonely until we die
So unappreciated
Why, why, why, why?

We're not so bad, you know
But you won't give us a chance
Take us to the movies, to dinner, or to dance

Not perfect
Not too hip
But we need loving too

We are the dateless losers
Lonely until we die
So unappreciated
Why, why, why, why? Oh!

You don't want us
You don't need us
You don't love us, ow!

We are the dateless losers
Lonely until we die
So unappreciated
Why, why, why, why?

We are the dateless losers
Lonely until we die
So unappreciated
Why, why, why, why?

Ho!

One, two, rock and roll, please!

Back when I met you, I didn't
Have a clue
Of the horrible agony you would
Put me through
But, now that we've done some time and
I know who you are
You're so full of shit, how did I
Let it get so far?

Well, you ruined my life
You were never my friend
And now all I can hope is that I
Never see you again

Valerie
You make me wish I was dead
Valerie
You're like a knife in my head
I'll never ever be the same
My life is ruined, you're to blame

Every moment of the
Year we spent
You pushed me further and further
Over the edge

Maybe you didn't mean it
Maybe you're sorry as well
Well, I know that you are evil
You came straight out of hell

Well, you wasted my time
All of my money, too
And I never really hated
Until I met you

Valerie
You make me wish I was dead
Valerie
You're like a knife in my head, yeah
I'll never ever be the same
My life is ruined, you're to blame

Let's rock!

Valerie
Valerie

Well, you ruined my life,
You were never my friend,
And now all I can hope is that I
Never see you again

Valerie
You make me wish I was dead—woo!
Valerie
You're like a knife in my head, yeah!
I'll never ever be the same
My life is ruined, you're to blame
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Valerie
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
I'll never ever be the same
My life is ruined, you're to blame

Yeah!

Start spreadin' the news
I'm leaving today
I want to be a part of it
New York, New York
These vagabond shoes
Are longing to stray
Right through the very heart of it
New York, New York

I want to wake up in a city
That doesn't sleep
And find I'm king of the hill
Top of the heap

These little town blues
Are melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it
In old New York
If I can make it there
I'll make it anywhere
It's up to you
New York, New York

New York, New York
I want to wake up
In a city that never sleeps
And find I'm A number 1
Top of the list
King of the hill
A number 1

These little town blues
Are melting away
I'm gonna make a brand new start of it
In old New York

And if I can make it there
I'm gonna make it anywhere
It's up to you, New York, New York!

New York!

[No lyrics]

There's a steel train coming through
I would take it if I could
And I would not lie to you because
Sunday morning soon will come
Things will be much easier to say
Upon the microphone like a Boss DJ
But I'm won't walk upon the sea
Like it was dry land
The Boss DJ ain't nothing but a man
No trouble, No fuss
I know why

It's so nice
I wanna hear the same song twice
It's so nice
I wanna hear the same song twice

Rumors are spreading all over my town
But it's just stones and sticks
'Cause on the microphone
Is where I go to get my fix
Just let the loving take ahold
It will if you let it
I'm funky not a junkie
But I know where to get it
No trouble, no fuss
I know why

It's so nice
I wanna hear the same song twice
It's so nice
I wanna hear the same song twice

Oowee, girl, oowee, girl, oowee, girl

There really ain't no time to waste
Really ain't no time to hate
Ain't got no time to waste, time to hate
Really ain't no time to let the time go waste

So Mr. DJ
Don't stop the music
I wanna know
Are you feeling the same way too?
I wanna rock it with you, girl, ooh, girl

Don't stop, don't stop, 'cause
It's so nice
I wanna hear the same song twice
It's so nice
I wanna hear the same song twice

Nowadays the songs on the radio all
All drive me crazy

It's so nice
I wanna hear the same song twice
It's so nice
I wanna hear the same song twice
It's so nice
I wanna hear the same song twice
It's so nice
I wanna hear the same song twice

I've got big dreams
But no self-esteem, you know
I'd reach for the stars
But I can't find my arms
All this time
We've accomplished so much
Why can't I believe?
Why can't I just feel love? Oh

Going away
Leaving today
You've gotta find a brand new hero

Going away
Leaving today
You've gotta find a brand new hero

I let you down
When you're not around, you know
I can't be trusted with anything
All this time we've wanted so much
To just belong
Why can't we just feel love?

Going away
Leaving today
You've gotta find a brand new here

Going away
Leaving today
You've gotta find a brand new hero

What will they say
When I've gone away?
Gotta find a brand new hero

Always talking but I never say a lot
And I'll blow it if I get another shot,
'Cause it seems like no matter what I've got
It feels like it's nothing
I feel like I'm nothing

Going away
Leaving today
You've gotta find a brand new hero

Going away
Leaving today
You've gotta find a brand new hero

What will they say
When I've gone away?
Gotta find a brand new hero
Brand new hero
Brand new hero
Brand new hero

"You gonna sing me a song?"
"Ohhh oh ohh! Maybe you should sing a song."

If I had a dollar bill for every
Time I've been wrong
I'd be a self-made millionaire
And you'd still be gone
So hand me down my best dress shoes
And my best dress shirt
'Cause I'm going out in style
To cover the hurt

All I wanna do all day
Is spend it in bed
But that's bad for the body
And even worse for my head
So I'll try and find a place where no one will
Ask me a thing
It'll help me to forget
And help me to sing

'Cause now, I'm drunk again
The means to my end
And I'm scared of myself
'Cause now, it's all the same
The faces and names
And I'm scared of myself again

Have you ever wanted to wake up
From your dreaming
It scared you so bad you couldn't control
Your heart or your breathing
Well, walk out the door with me on the floor
You don't care how I'm feeling
I guess a weak and tired and frightened man
Is no longer appealing

'Cause now, I'm drunk again
The means to my end
And I'm scared of myself

'Cause now, it's all the same
The faces and names
And I'm scared of myself again

Some people have a gift of reaching right
Into your soul
And finding the hole
And making it bigger
Baby, sometimes I think I catch you cracking
Cynical smiles
And in a short while
You'll be my heart's gravedigger
Well, there's not much I can do
'Cause I'm at mercy of you
So, baby, I guess we're through

'Cause now, I'm drunk again
The means to my end
And I'm scared of myself

'Cause now, it's all the same
The faces and names
And I'm scared of myself

'Cause now, it's all the same
The faces and names
And I'm scared of myself

So go, walk out the door
You don't believe me no more
And I'm scared of myself again

If I had a dollar bill for every
Time I've been wrong
I'd be a self-made millionaire
And I wouldn't be singing
