The Words Don’t Matter

This song doesn’t have a point
Because we didn’t give it one
And I don’t think that we ever will
Because that would take some skill
Maybe I can be right about life
Or how I feel tonight
But I don’t think anyone would care
chorus:
So I’ll just sit here (hey hey hey hey)
Making up this crap (hey hey hey hey)
About stuff that doesn’t matter
And that’s why
All our words are slurred
With nothing in particular
Speaking gibberish, we try to fool ourselves
With our emotional scars
But that’s not who we are
And so I guess this song is gonna have to be about nothing
This is the song’s second verse
It’s pretty much just like the first
Except for it has different words
And some of the same chords
And I don’t know why we bothered to write this part
’Cause it’s all stupid anyway
[chorus]

chorus:
“A Plea for Peace” and “Unity” were the battle cries of our time
But does anybody really know just where to draw the line
You say “no hate” and you say “no war” but you really mean “no clue”
You hypocrite, you give a bad name to the groups you said you knew
[chorus]

Pasta Sauce Junkie

verse 1:
I see you at the supermarket everyday
You run for the pasta sauce and no one gets in your way
You fill up your basket with that red junk
And if it’s on sale I guess you’re in luck
[verse 1]
chorus:
You’re addicted to ragù
You don’t eat pasta too
You just pop open the lid
And chow down like a kid
Break it down
But on one horrible, frightful evening
The store was out of stock and it left you grieving
You went home and shot yourself in the foot
But then you went to the doctor, now you’re good as new
Or are you
[chorus]
Pasta sauce
Junkie
Pasta sauce

Psycho ska is on the loose
Don’t worry, it’ll come get you soon
Make you skank to death, you’ll like it too
You’ll be on your knees, begging for more, singin’
Oh my god, you guys are so cool
breakdown (x3):
Who’s the kid with the checkerboard slip-ons
(Skanonymous we hate you)
We hate you too
Psycho ska is on the go
Goin’ to underground clubs to watch it flow
You might say “What’s psycho ska?”
It’s what’s in your face, making you drop your jaw, singin’

I was talkin’ to her late one Saturday night
It was goin’ good and ya know the feelin’ was right
So I said “Hey babe, whaddya say me and you go out on the town”
And she said “Well OK but only if my boyfriend says he is down”
Struck out again
And life’s no fun for me ’cause
chorus:
All my girlfriends
They have boyfriends
Now I’m stuck here alone
Alone with no friends
I called up my #2 to see what she wanted to do (what she wanted to do)
I asked if she was down to go paint the town, and she said “Not with you”
Just then I realized that she couldn’t be my type (no, not my type)
Because the type with a boyfriend just can’t ever be right ’cause
[chorus]

verse:
Stupid guys and little girls
Cruel intentions taking over the world
Not the love but for the lust
I talk to her ’cause of that nice butt
I take her back to your place
Parents out on an old people date
Lock the door, dim the lights
She’s not gettin’ out of this tonight
[verse]
chorus:
I gotta get on outta here
Don’t let us see your face again
’Cause if we see you on the streets
We’re gonna smash it in
[chorus] (x2)
