lyrics

Remember when you cried
Cuz no one was around?
Were you really so surprised
You threw your six-string down?
Cuz I was not surprised,
You're boring just to hear.
It's not the worst thing that you've done this year.

You ran out of the house
And down the street a ways.
Your friend was running after you,
You couldn't see his face.
He wasn't so surprised,
You've done this thing before.
He doesn't understand you anymore.

You have made yourself perfectly clear,
You have nothing to say.

You were locked out of the house
When the spaceship came down,
And picked you up and flew you through the stars.

But you did not appreciate the secrets you were told.
This attitude is quickly growing old.
