a tribute to bands without equipment

lyrics

LET ME INTRODUCE MYSELF
SOMETIMES I DO SOMERSAULTS
SOMETIMES I SPLIT UP WITH MY GIRLFRIEND
BUT IT’S ALL HER FAULT
SHE SAYS THAT I’M NOT NORMAL
AND I’M NOT THE BIG ONE
BUT I NEVER WANTED BE ONE
ONE OF THOSE BIG ONES

I’M GETTING HIGHER & HIGHER
BUT I DON’T TAKE ANY DRUGS
NOW I GIVE YOU THIS FLOWER
BECAUSE THAT MAGIC HAS GONE

LET ME INTRODUCE MY GIRLFRIEND
SHE ISN’T THE BIG ONE FOR ME EITHER
I DON’T HAVE ANY PICTURE OF HER
BUT WHO CARES FOR THINGS LIKE THESE
SHE TALKS A LOT AND IT MAKES NO SENSE
I PRETEND THAT I UNDERSTAND
SOMETIMES SHE WANTS SOMETHING
BUT I HAVE TO MAKE MY STAND

WE’RE PLAYING LOUDER & LOUDER
BUT WE DON’T HAVE ANY AMPS
I WROTE THIS SONG FOR MY FUNERAL
SO LET’S PLAY IT UNTIL THE END
