"Talking"
Descendents
Cool To Be You

Um, I LOVE The Descendents. I've never seen them live, but I did see ALL twice and they're 3/4 Decendents so that's something, right? I think any music fan, not just a punk fan, needs to know and appreciate The Descendents. I don't listen to a lot of the punk stuff I used to like, but The Descendents will always be in my musical rotations.

I think this band gets some good harmonies in there which I like. It's not just yelling and screaming words, there is actual music in there. I love it and I hope you do, too.


Talking about our life, no matter how much I don’t like
Talk is never cheap between you and me
Look at how far we’ve come, and still we always come undone
Maybe that’s how it always has to be

I'm out here alone, talking on the phone
Tensions are rising, it’s never surprising
This is the way it goes
Maybe we’ll fall in love when I get home

Talking about our life, seems like we never get it right
But we always get an A for effort
We sweat to find what to say, communication’s the only way
If we ever hope to stay together – Communicate!

I'm out here alone, talking on the phone
Tensions are rising, it’s never surprising
This is the way it goes
Maybe we’ll fall in love when I get home

Tell me the problem, I wanna know
If there’s a solution, I'll fix it now
And if there isn’t, I'll just be there
If I don’t say something, don’t say I don’t care

Well, I go yaddaddayaddaya, and you go yaddaddayaddaya
Yaddaddayaddayadda is what we gotta do

I'm out here alone, talking on the phone
Tensions are rising, it’s never surprising
This is the way it goes
Maybe we’ll fall in love when I get home

"Pathetic"
Blink-182
Dude Ranch

This song begs to be sung live with both Tom Delonge and Mark Hoppus (sp?) taking turns at the microphone. And with Travis Barker keeping up that constant, quick bass drum. Loves it. I actually do really like this song. That beat that sounds like it gets off beat because it's so fast. I'm guessing this song is about when Tom dropped out of high school as a lot of the songs on this album are about that. I would also like to take this time to say how incredibly hott I think Tom Delonge is.

Oh, and when I get my new iPod for Christmas (80GB), I might have to change the header on here.

I know I'm pathetic, I knew when she said it
A loser, a bum's what she called me when I drove her home
There's no more waiting and sure no more wasting
I've done all I can but she still wants to be left alone

You got, you got, you got to help me out
And I'll try not to argue
No one, no one, no one likes a drop-out
Mistakes are hard to undo

Don't pull me down, this is where I belong
I think I'm different, but I'm the same and I'm wrong
Don't pull me down, this is where I belong
I think I'm different, this is where I belong

I think it's disgusting, believing and trusting
If I gave a fuck there would be nothing for me to prove
Although it's amusing, it's slightly confusing
I've done all I can but her ego is still hard to move

You got, you got, you got to help me out
And I'll try not to argue
No one, no one, no one likes a drop-out
Mistakes are hard to undo

Don't pull me down, this is where I belong
I think I'm different, but I'm the same and I'm wrong
Don't pull me down, this is where I belong
I think I'm different, this is where I belong

Don't pull me down, this is where I belong
I think I'm different, this is where I belong
