1. RECENTLY

Recently I’ve been burning bridges
And giving up so much pointless stuff
That when I finally show up at all they’ll be surprised

Recently I’ve been taking chances
And giving lessons on how to tell the world you don’t care
Before you ask, I’m fine.

‘Cause honestly I don’t have the patience
To try and explain the things I say
And my time is wasted
Just like your cynical friends
And honestly I don’t think about the things I say
I guess it sorta just comes out

So, goodbye (goodbye)
I’m ready to go.

And I’m leaving all of these memories on the floor
There’s no reason to worry about it anymore


2. MORNING SEX AND AM RADIO

It won't stop raining
I guess I got nothing left
Except this song and a kiss
And I guess that the farther way
From the day to day I can be
Is better than anything

I think I'm better alone
These nights are better than those
I just keep drinking Diet Coke
And talking shit about everyone I know
Except for all my closest friends

[Chorus]
So I've been spending my time in backyards and parked cars
I think I got what I need
I don't need to be waking up 'til ten o'clock
So I might as well not sleep
We've been spending our time in downtowns of small towns
Headlights under the bridge
Not a lot to say cause it's early
Talked all night, never even kissed

When we woke up bright and early Sunday morning
Weekend's almost over
I've got so much left to do
But all my time is wasted, I don't care
I don't need to be anywhere
I'm not saying sorry
It's already over
And I won't care by tomorrow

[Chorus]


3. POP ROCKS N' COKE

I got this feeling deep inside me
Here's another three day crush
It's like a jiggle
JP's wiggle is a massive sugar rush

[Chorus]
Eating pop rocks, drinking Coke
I think my stomach might explode
If Mikey likes to try it, so can I

But I can't explain it, I just know it
You'll just have to wait and see
It's like a Chiapet inside me
I've seen on TV

[Chorus]

I can't fall asleep at night
I would close my eyes but I would die afraid
When I think I might explode
You better watch out now
'Cause here I go

So that was in me
Still working, windy
That's just goofy at it's best
I feel a rumble, tickle, tumble
Man, my stomach's upset

[Chorus]


4. SPRINKLERS

Say what you want to hear
I know that we'll be right back here
I haven't slept in four days
And I can't think straight
But other days I think a lot
And all my problems, I forgot
I guess I'm happy but it's weird to say it
It rains and I swear it never stops
I won't give up, I won't get caught
I'm counting down the hours
Until I can go home

Peacefully I try to sleep but I'm restless
Holding hands, but never cared if I missed this
Make mistakes, but we won't care 'til the morning
When I don't think I'll give in
I don't think I'll give in

Stop off at the corner store
Messed up the words
This night's a bore
These bands don't get it
And I'm tired of writing
And when we talk, I feel alive
And I know it's not just me
That's staying up all night
Just hoping and waiting for change
When the conversations start
You pride yourself on broken hearts
I'm not just living so I can't whine and complain

Peacefully I never sleep cause we're talking
I used to say I never cared about nothing
That's kind of true, but I guess in the meantime
I'm just waiting for something to feel right

I can't sing that well
I guess that's why I never wrote you a song
I'm just talking to talk because I can't hang up
I get tired of sleeping alone
And these recent days with kids' stupid taste
People just want to complain
I guess it's nice to see that there's someone else like me
(Someone else like me)

And I know the ups and downs are hard
I'm just sitting around
I want to finish these songs
But I don't know where to start
And I, I'm sure things could still be worse
So thanks a lot, but this is all I've got
I'm still happy and at least I learned
That the older you get
The harder it is to make yourself go all out
So we say goodnight and by the morning light
I'll happy you're still around
Happy you're around
