She says she's read too many fashion magazines
|
She's forgotten what real love is like
|
And as the basement collects more kids off the street
|
They smoke themselves to death waiting for the band to begin
|
They've been tuning up there for an hour now
|
And I don't think I can stand another minute more
|
But just then the first chord strums, and the drums set in
|
And I know what I have been waiting around for
|
Because no one's going home until the morning comes
|
No one's going to sleep until the sun comes up
|
Did you hear those first two songs?
|
They were fucking tuff
|
And the band's not going to stop until the cops show up
|
So hold your applause until the end, and wait for the sadness to set in
|
Because that's the only feeling that's worth a damn
|
He says he's done with the pop music scene
|
There's too many opinions and so few are worth a shit
|
He has got to learn to act a little more mean
|
Because the mean ones always end up with the record deals
|
And it's only when I'm angry that I feel complete
|
When we are screaming at each other is when I am most happy
|
I hang out with my friends and then I get depressed
|
And I drink myself to sleep with any strength that is left
|
And I quit going to church a year ago
|
And my teachers think that my faith is gone
|
But I can do without the eucharist because I found God
|
In a Solid Jackson song
