Driving around with my friends Listening to Violent Femmes Renting indie videos Hitting local punk rock shows That’s all I see from my broken time machine That’s all I see from my broken time machine Unable to be alone Never wanting to be home Feeling bad about myself Wishin’ I was someone else That’s what I’d see if I fixed my time machine That’s what I’d see if I fixed my time machine Because it wasn’t so great to be a teenager Even though I had the greatest friends My home life sucked and I was scared of love And if I ever got the chance I wouldn't do it all again “Nineteen Ninety Eight” I’d rather stay at home and blaze Than travel to my glory days I won’t find what I’m looking for Because my friends don’t live there anymore I’m dismantling my broken time machine I’m dismantling my broken time machine Nostalgia sucks!

She’d never seen Pacific Shores Until she landed in LA She’d never been on an airplane Until she won that getaway Tickets to Universal and airfare for four But she hesitated at the door She said What if Steven Spielberg sees me? I can’t look like myself What if he’s looking for a leading lady? And if he sees me… She wore her red dress to the park The one that makes her look like Cher And to make her shine on the thrill rides She put glitter in her hair They toured the backlot where directors might hang out And when Jaws jumped out she gave a dramatic shout Like What if Steven Spielberg sees me? I can’t look like myself What if he’s looking for a leading lady? And if he sees me… Obviously - She didn’t know how Hollywood works Obviously - She didn’t notice the jerks She just wanted to feel like a star And she did For that day, she did Tickets to Universal and airfare for four But this trip meant so much more Because What if Steven Spielberg sees me And if he sees me, he’ll see me like no one else

He always dreamed he’d be on SNL She always thought he’d find his way to Hell If he chose his own direction She said to pray for what he wanted So his development was stunted Just waiting for directions from some old dude up in heaven He was the son of a teacher But he never learned shit from her He had to learn to love himself She said that there is danger in the world She cried when he brought home a Catholic girl Cuz that’s how the devil gets ya He said “I’d rather roll with Satan’s crew Than wait around for miracles with you He drove off in his LeBaron He was the son of a teacher But he never learned shit from her He had to learn to love himself He hated who he grew to be Until he got some therapy He got the nerve to take an improv class He was the son of a teacher But he never learned shit from her He had to learn to love himself He just had to learn to love himself

Come! Come! I should’ve given more context, man When I went up to Joe And asked him if he likes Circle Jerks And he just said, um… no No one wants to come No one wants to come No one wants to come I probably could’ve been more specific When I asked my pal Steve If he ever got into Group Sex Or is it new to him like me No one wants to come No one wants to come No one wants to come With me to see… The Circle Jerks!

I’ve been going to the abbey for 47 years I always show up with hope and drive away in tears I know she’s crying too but what else can I do? I'm in love with a nun Back when were younger she refused to wear my ring Then she invited me to watch her wed the King of Kings! I won’t let her forget me in case she ever leaves I’ll be waiting for my nun We meet in the garden alone I walk straight past confessional And when she holds my hand I know I’d rather go to hell than to the friend zone With a nun Cross your heart and pray that you don’t fall in love With a nun

La Cosa Nova 01:41
Blast off for Pizza! Blast off for Pizza! Blast off! Blast off! Blast off for Pizza! When you’re blasting into orbit and you wanna stuff your face With the freshest freakin’ pasta you can find in outer space Dinner is made and so are we (we…) At La Cosa Nova We make a margherita pizza with a lunar twist And a Martian manicotti Sir Richard Branson can’t resist For dessert, we make an interstellar tiramisu And offer you can’t refuse At La Cosa Nova And be nice to the guys in the Armani spacesuits Or they’ll send you back to earth in concrete boots When you’re at La Cosa Nova you’re with family Free rocket parking in the back Our ingredients are freshly whacked… At La Cosa Nova Blast off for Pizza!

There is a lady I know She says she’s saved but even so She is afraid of everything When the shit started going down Instead of stepping up or helping out, She withdrew from society Religious Exemption Denying the science Heading for heaven Nowhere in the Lord’s Prayer Does it say anything About Me, Myself and I But she declined the opportunity To care for her community She acted with impunity as if she had immunity and only suckers die Religious Exemption Denying the science Heading for heaven And Jesus Christ, what happened to compassion? How can you just pretend this shit’s not happening Since when is Christianity all about me me me me me? Religious Exemption Denying the science Heading for heaven Denying the science Heading for heaven (She was afraid of everything) credits

Everybody's gonna croak Everybody's gonna croak You’re running out of time to be happy with your life So let your hang ups go before you croak Napoleon was just a man, at the end of his life, he died alone Buzz Aldrin went to space but he still lifted his face before he croaked When king tut sides he was only 19 How do you think that boy enjoyed his fame? Think of any great historical figure I’ll bet ya they croaked How much status do ya need to feel like you have succeeded? What a joke! All your power dies when you do and the things you care about will decompose Not to be a hippy but come on It’s time to show some love and get some in return Because You can’t control your image after you croak Everybody's gonna croak Everybody's gonna croak You’re running out of time to feel something good inside So learn to love yourself before you croak Unless you do something for someone else No one will remember your name Why build your life around appearances When you’re just getting older every day? You and me and everyone We’re gonna croak so have some fun Presidents and magnates too They all croak and so will you! Everybody's gonna croak Everybody's gonna croak You, me, everyone we know Not sure how we got here but we all gotta go So baby let’s rock like we’re gonna croak any day We’re gonna party till we croak in the USA today Everybody’s croakin’ in the USA

Gasparilla 02:44
I’m not even here, cause in my head, I’m in sunny FLA Thinking of the fun I’m gonna have when I get to Tampa Bay Well I’m not going to St. Pete But I hear it’s freakin’ sweet They got that cool Dali museum And I’m not going to Clearwater Though I hear I really oughta Grouper sandwiches so big you won’t believe em I’m going down to the pirate parade Gonna watch the Krewe invade! Oooh, Gasparilla I’m not ready to go home Ooooh, Gasparilla I came here by myself, but I’m not alone No one is alone at Gasparilla I show up at 9 with a fresh cigar And a cooler that rolls behind me If catching beads were a contest, I’d probably be the winner But I still don’t know where the people go At night when the parade’s over I always pass out before dinner January’s getting hot this year So grab a lukewarm beer! Oooh, Gasparilla I’m not ready to go home Ooooh, Gasparilla I came here by myself, but I’m not alone Everyone’s got a home at Gasparilla I don’t fit it in at home So I take that flight alone And Touchdown in a place where they accept me And I got nothing to lose So I applied to join several krewes There’s no way they’ll all reject me Oooh, Gasparilla I’m not ready to go home Ooooh, Gasparilla I came here by myself, but I’m not alone
