Michael doesn't like me, he thinks I'm full of shit
 He doesn't have to say so, yeah I can take a hint 
Oh I'm not that bad a guy, so I don't understand why 
He hates me and wants to kick my ass Michael doesn't like me, he thinks that I'm a jerk 
I gave him my last juice box, but nothing seems to work
 Maybe it's all in my head, but I swear he wants me dead
 And I don't see this getting any worse He thinks that I'm a total loser 
It kind of hurts my feelings too 
Cause when he pisses in my sandbox
 Well that's gotta be the worst most disrespectful thing another kid could do And I don't think it's cool And I don't think it's cool And I don't think it's cool Michael doesn't like me, I think I'm gonna cry 
I try to be his pal, but he gave me a black eye 
Now I don't want to get rough cause I hear he's pretty tough
 So I guess, that I'll just shut my trap Michael thinks I'm stupid, I know he thinks I'm lame
 When I say hey what's up Michael, he just walks away
 And I knew it along so correct me if I'm wrong 
 He hates me and wants to punch my face He rides his bike without a helmet
 And takes the little bus to school
It's not my fault if he can't help it
 When he swears and flips me off, I show him that I've got a middle finger too Yeah, right back at you Yeah, right back at you Yeah, right back at you   He thinks that I'm a total loser 
It kind of hurts my feelings too
 Cause when he pisses in my sandbox
 Well that's gotta be the worst most disrespectful thing another kid could do And I don't think it's cool And I don't think it's cool And I don't think it's cool

Helmets 02:04
Where's Your Helmet   We're gonna go go go to the punk rock show tonight I'm gonna ride my board and you can take your bike Cause there's a lot of mean people in cars out there And they can come right out of nowhere fast You better look both ways or you'll end up right on your ass   Where's your helmet Let's Go   We're gonna go go go to the punk rock show ok And if your mom says no, you'll punch her in the face Cause if she smacks you back with a wiffle ball bat Then you gotta have a backup plan She's gonna crack that skull make you understand   Where's your helmet

Football 02:15
I know that I'm the best, 
I'm tougher than the rest
 One day I'll be a big shot football hero I'll score one for the team
, cheerleaders will scream
 Then me and my jock friends will punch a weirdo Cause I'm gonna be a professional football player
 All of my fans are gonna worship me
 I'm gonna be a professional football player 
Praised like a god in my football dreams I'll win over the crowd
, my dad will be so proud
 And maybe he will stop yelling at me And when I catch a pass
, some dude will smack my ass 
And I'll get to go to college for free Cause I'm gonna be a professional football player
 All my fans are gonna worship me 
I'm gonna be a professional football player
 Praised like a god in my football dreams When I'm on the offense I'm coming after you
 I'll kick and stomp and smash you until you're black and blue
 You'll end up in a wheelchair before this game is through 
I'm gonna catch that ball if it's the last thing I ever fucking do Cause I'm gonna be a professional football player 
I'm gonna be a professional football player 
I'm gonna be a professional football player
 I'm gonna be a professional football player Yeah

Skatepark 03:13
Friday after school, head out to the park We were out there shredding until it was almost dark Dropped into a pool, caught a bunch of air I could nail a four-foot hard flip but she won't even care Pop shove it, really doesn't seem to impress her at all My thoughts stop, every time she even looks my way and then I fall Falling for that girl At the skate park, I'm wasting all my time Going round in circles at the skate park Get on my board and ride There's nothing left to do There's nothing left to do Wait for pretty girl to show up again They all hang around on the other side of the fence Try to keep my cool, maybe I should bail But I can do a kick flip onto any of these rails I'm trying just to get the guts to talk to her somehow Keep flying on this half pipe but I know I'll end up falling down I'm falling for her now At the skate park, I'm wasting all my time Going round in circles at the skate park Get on my board and ride There's nothing left to do There's nothing left to do At the skate park, I'm wasting all my time Going round in circles at the skate park Get on my board and ride There's nothing left to do There's nothing left to do

Lockdown 01:55
My best friend died here by my side Oh how I cried, so many died It was a flood of tears and blood Looked like a pool here at my school But it's ok, God bless the NRA Cause I don't need a thing To go and get my own AK To get my own AK It's hard enough just to be a kid To figure out with what's so wrong with what I did To take a class, to pass at math, to meet a girl, conquer the world Learning dodging bullets just seems absurd I have to be 18 to smoke a cigarette My throat gets sore, I go to the store I cant't get Sudafed Can't even watch a movie if it's NC17 But I can get a glock without a safety lock and a loaded magazine Why is it so hard to understand Certain things shouldn't be in children's hands It's not about protecting rights, it's about correcting wrongs That's why I wrote this song That's why you all should sing along Or soon the future will be gone, gone, gone, gone, gone My best friend died here by my side oh how I cried, so many died It was a flood of tears and blood Looked like a pool here at my school

This one's about the kid with yellow hair He doesn't play the bass too well at all He wears sandals to school He'll take a dump right in your pool But out of the three of us, he's pretty tall And he always wears a porn anime sweatshirt He's got a matching blankie just for jerking off In terms of fucking the songs up, he is an expert Hey Nate, fuck off…. His computers always Full of malware viruses  No matter how much he runs AVG He always looks real high I bet his mom would probably cry If she ever searched his browsing history He's the only one we know who gets excited  When the doctor says to turn your head and cough His rapping skills Have got us undecided Hey Nate, fuck off… (He's lazy and stupid his hair is not even blonde, a loser, he's useless, His bass is never in tune) (His head is gigantic, his Tik tok video sucks, a boneheaded a moron, his Soundcloud sucks real bad too)

Your lips are moving, But I'm not listening I hear you talking. But you don't got nothing to say I think you're boring, You don't know anything So stop your whining, I wish that you'd just go away I wish that you'd just go away Your voice is traveling on different frequencies Communication is not an option anymore Your words are blending together as one sound You're the infection, now why don't you just shut your mouth Now don't you just shut your mouth

A.D.D. 02:00
Yeah I've got A.D.D.
 I don't know what the hell is wrong with me
 The doctor said that I should take this pill
 And it will help me out with sitting still I've got A.D.D.
 It's like an overwhelming energy 
I need a coping skill to focus on
 Until my over stimulation's gone Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster Yeah, I've got A.D.D.
 And that's a label that will stay with me 
Throughout the course of my whole life at school 
Maybe the other kids will think it's cool The pharmaceutical industry 
Capitalizing on the fact that we
 Have the attention span of eight year olds
 And always end up doing what we're told Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster

Spiders 02:20
Spiders are the worst, disgusting Hairy legs, they won't stop coming Down, down, down, down, down Beady eyes, they're always lurking Hatred for them never slowing Down, down, down, down, down Spiders everywhere Creepy, crawling, hanging around Spiders everywhere This basement, house, invading our town Fear inside, we're screaming, running Up the stairs, they won't stop coming Down, down, down, down, down Growing wings and getting faster No escaping, this disaster Down, down, down, down, down Spiders everywhere Creepy, crawling, hanging around Spiders everywhere This basement, house, invading our town Spiders everywhere Creepy, crawling, hanging around Spiders everywhere This basement, house, invading our town Invading our planet Invading our town Invading our planet Invading our town Invading our planet Invading our town We're leaving this planet

You think we don't understand a single word that you say
 Whispering to your friends, wish they'd just go away 
Oh my god, they're so cute, is it a boy or a girl
 You better turn the other way   Just go away Just go away Just go away   You're stupid and boring and so full of shit
 You're wasting our time and we are getting sick of it
 You're lazy and dumb and you don't have a clue
 We don't need Michael and we don't need you   Your guitar is so great, but it's never left your room 
All these trolls, it's so sad, with these internet buffoons 
 We're just kids having fun, rock and roll is our drug
 You don't know us, just go away   Just go away Just go away Just go away   You're stupid and boring and so full of shit
 You're wasting our time and we are getting sick of it
 You're lazy and dumb and you don't have a clue
 We don't need John Travers and we don't need you

Practice 01:32
Ever since The day he shit his pants he acts like such an asshole Or maybe he was just an asshole all along But every now and then he comes around like he's some fucking rockstar But if he didn't then we would not have this song He doesn't show up for band practice because he's got more important things to do Well heres a little message Dylan (fuck you) This is what happens when you don't show up for practice  This is what it sounds like without your impressive lead guitar riffs This is the product of a gimmick driven punk band This is what you get when you blow us off and leave us high and dry Just another Saturday, another Saturday And Dylan doesn't wanna play He only wants to stay home This is what happens when you don't show up for practice This is the sound of my dick in my hand, when you fail to arrive This is what happens when you don't show up for practice This is what you get when you leave us hanging and waste all of our time
14.
This world is treating you so bad And you're whining like a baby And it's really kind of sad You must be so alone In this world of delusion Where you're saving rock and roll And no one listens to you And you've got nowhere to go Standing on your own We never see you at the show Actions speak louder than words All we see is a baby who's looking for a pat on the back Pat on the back Pat on the back Pat on the back Picking on little kids Has you feeling like big man In your big boy underpants You must be so proud When you're knocking down the scene And pushing everyone away What's your motivation In these stupid games you play Are you jealous, feeling cheated Cause you're not getting your way Actions speak louder than words All we see is a baby who's looking for a pat on the back Pat on the back Pat on the back Pat on the back
15.
Well we started out so strong Really how could we go wrong? We were 4 kids in a punk rock band And we learned to play a song We were mini punk rock stars We were packing clubs and bars Oh the gimmick it was bulletproof  Little kids playing guitars Yeah we opened for the Bosstones Played the Warped Tour too Even got a documentary  A director and film crew There was just one thing we failed to factor in Well we started to get fat Dylan's voice began to crack Now were into boobs and anime And that disappoints my dad It was a flash right in the pan Like a killer one night stand Well we're taller than our parents now Which was not part of the plan And We're growing hair in places We did not have hair before We've got acne on our faces and it ain't too cute no more The inevitable truth starts to set in We didn't make it Id like to say we tried hard but we faked it The songs are all sub par thats why we failed The ship has sailed, we didn't make it We didn't make it We had a shot and our parents made us take it Vicariously reliving their youth Cause their failures too, we didn't make it We didn't make it Remove the age thing and we're pretty basic The novelty had an expiration date And now its too late, we didn't make it
16.
California 02:29
We're not from California, we're not from N.Y.C. If you go to Chicago, that's not where we will be. Here the girls are fat and the sun don't always shine But in my book, that's just fine It's a no mans land There's no palm trees in the sand That I can find, No No No We're not from California If you end up in Wormtown, you went to the wrong bar It's kind of close to Boston, but close is no cigar And the people smell, they all love to scream and yell But it's home sweet home to me And you, know you're there You can taste it in the air You're gonna gag, yeah yeah yeah We're not from California The tap water tastes like toxic waste But it's safe to drink most of the time The smoke kind of saturates the air And the winters will make you want to die We're not from California
