Cooler Things
02:40
|
|||
She's on the radar of your heart
But you'll quit early if you're smart
Every little thing you do, she's gonna critique
She says she don't like no one who's proud to be a geek
Or you watch Star Trek every week
You might assume that her dark frame glasses mean that she's a nerd
But that's just the trend these days, at least that's what I've heard
She don't like me, and she don't like you
She's got cooler things to do
Expect that girl to run away
When she finds out you watch anime
She'll be out the door so quickly
She hates it all, even Studio Ghibli
She's just the type who will ignore me
You might assume that her dark frame glasses mean that she's a nerd
But that's just the trend these days, at least that's what I've heard
She don't like me, and she don't like you
She's got cooler things to do
What could she possibly do
With all of her time
All of her time
No comic books or sci-fi
You might assume that her dark frame glasses mean that she's a nerd
But that's just the trend these days, at least that's what I've heard
She don't like me, and she don't like you
She's got cooler things to do
She's got cooler things to do
She's got cooler things to do, woah woah
She's got cooler things to do

Mondo Crush
02:06
|
|||
I only get to talk to you on days I get the guts
And every time I finally do, my heart begins to go nuts
I'm a silly nervous boy, and I don't know what to say
I'd become so overjoyed if you'd just look my way
I've got a mondo crush on you
It makes my head spin
And every time I think of you
I can't wait til I see you again
More than a friend
And every time I make you laugh, I spend the rest of my day
With a super giddy attitude and a dorky smile glued to my face
I wanna ask you on a date, I hope your answer thrills me
You've got a smile that kills me
I've got a mondo crush on you
It makes my head spin
And every time I think of you
I can't wait til I see you again
More than a friend

What He Didn't Know
02:37
|
|||
Well all of my friends say "Maybe soon you'll see"
"You can't spend your whole life playing video games from 1993"
I remember when
I went down to the flea market
Found a Super Nintendo
He said "It's yours if you can fix it"
What he didn't know
That Nintendo
Needed nothing more than a flip of a switch
And a power cord
Well I don't know, what I can't see
But everybody's giving deals to me
And I don't know, what's meant to be
But don't you know that everything is free
Don't you know, it's just so worth it
Don't you know, the price is perfect
I'll fall in line, find a deal
Don't you know, it's practically a steal
I remember when
I was just a teenage kid
I rode my bike to a yard sale
Star Wars toys, and 80s records
What I didn't know
I still would go
In 10 more years in my very own
Dodge '95
Well I don't know, what I can't see
But everybody's giving deals to me
And I don't know, what's meant to be
But don't you know that everything is free
Don't you know, it's just so worth it
Don't you know, the price is perfect
I'll fall in line, find a deal
Don't you know, it's practically a steal

Girl at the Snack Bar
00:16
|

I've got a crush on a girl at the snack bar
Hangin' out with her would be a dream
But I don't know what my chances are
When I'm 27 and she's 43

I've got your name
Stuck in my head where you became
The queen of my daydreams
Do you feel the same?
I cannot pretend
My luck isn't cursed
I bought you a gift but I wasn't the first
But mine might be the worst
I bought you an expired box of chocolates
But I never would have guessed
Though I picked them up on clearance
I thought they would still be fresh
Every little thing I do
No, I'm not impressing you
There's no change left in my pockets
That expired box of chocolates
You've made the list
Of girls who don't care I exist
Cuz when I say "hi"
A chance passes by
I can't talk about
The weather anymore
Cuz it never changes, and I'm feeling sure
I probably make you feel bored
I bought you an expired box of chocolates
But I never would have guessed
Though I picked them up on clearance
I thought they would still be fresh
Every little thing I do
No, I'm not impressing you
There's no change left in my pockets
That expired box of chocolates

Walkin' through the checkout line
Paper or plastic would be fine
That's when we made eye contact
Nearly had a heart attack
She swiped my card then she swiped my heart
Put all the groceries in my cart
Now I should go back again so I can be her friend
It's the ode to the girl at the grocery store
She's everything a boy a could want and more
It's the ode to the girl at the grocery store
She's everything that I could ever adore
Going back there everyday
I need groceries anyway
I'll buy broccoli so she thinks
That I'm one healthy geek
I won't lie about the status quo
I get turned down by the girls I know
Maybe this one's different though and I can have a chance
It's the ode to the girl at the grocery store
She's everything a boy a could want and more
It's the ode to the girl at the grocery store
She's everything that I could ever adore

Every Reason in the Book
03:03
|
|||
I've got an idea, it's as crazy as it sounds
I wanna take you to the Hillsborough County Fairgrounds
There's not much time to go
So we probably shouldn't take it too slow
Otherwise the season's gonna turn and the park is gonna close
Every reason in the book
So take a closer look
Got another one up my sleeve
Another reason not to leave
Every reason, so take a closer look
I'll quote my favorite bands but you'll be unaware
Like MxPx I'll say "party, my house, be there"
We're hangin' out tonight
At the record store, so here's your invite
We're playin' all our favorite songs, and everything's gonna be alright
Every reason in the book
So take a closer look
Got another one up my sleeve
Another reason I won't leave
Every reason, so take a closer look
And if I ever found a way to say it
Without looking like I don't know what to do
Then maybe I could write a song for you and play it
And I wouldn't have to use an excuse
Every reason in the book
So take a closer look
Got another one up my sleeve
Another reason not to leave
Every reason, so take a closer look

Early Pioneers of Gaming
04:18
|
|||
What's the very first video game?
Depending who you ask, the answer's not the same
Well I guess that's really quite debatable
But here's the ones that made them playable
Atari wowed the world with Pong
Nintendo jumped on board with Donkey Kong
Namco had Pacman and Galaxian
They flew us out to space and back again
They were legends that you won't hear about
In your high school history class
They were heroes that you're not gonna see
On the daily news broadcast
They left all the nerds exclaiming
"Hooray for the early pioneers of gaming!"
William Higgibotham, 1958
Designed a new way for tennis to be played
I guess it was forgotten for a long time
They took it all apart in '59
The years went by and arcades were the place to be
Games from Midway, Williams, Taito, and Konami
In the 80s, they saw their biggest test
Miyamoto from Nintendo saved us with the NES
They were legends that you won't hear about
In your high school history class
They were heroes that you're not gonna see
On the daily news broadcast
They left all the nerds exclaiming
"Hooray for the early pioneers of gaming!"
(Reflective guitar solo plays through headphones while walking down railroad tracks on a cool night)
They were legends that you won't hear about
In your high school history class
They were heroes that you're not gonna see
On the daily news broadcast
They left all the nerds exclaiming
"Hooray for the early pioneers of gaming!"
"Hooray for the early pioneers of gaming!"
"Hooray for the early pioneers of gaming!"

I met her on the internet
We fell in love, but we haven't met up yet
I'm hoping we could maybe
Hang out pretty soon
Then she said "Let's meet this afternoon"
She asked if I could meet her by the pool
I was pumped because she seemed extremely cool
In her photograph, she always looked so sweet
I'm so ready just to meet
I met her on the internet
I'm waiting here, but she hasn't shown up yet
Instead these buff guys took my wallet away
I'm sure she's somewhere, she's just running late

Still Got Zelda
03:31
|
|||
I never thought that you would be
The type who would talk down to me
Just cuz I took a chance
I tried to ask you for a dance
Now I sit with my TV set
I haven't found the Triforce yet
Tonight I'll hide away
With a stack of games to play
I could speedrun Ocarina
Try to forget that I've ever seen ya
You talked down to me like a child
But tonight I'm playing Breath of the Wild
I've got a place to go
I don't even need to tell ya
I'm the boy that you'll never know
At least I've still got Zelda
I never thought it would be like this
The blood moon rises in the midst
I'm running back upstairs
To fight off monsters everywhere
Now I'm fighting Poes and ReDeads
The names you called me went to my head
Now it's all a void cuz my hearts have been destroyed
I just liked you so I asked
Now I'm alone with Majora's Mask
I didn't want any other girl
But tonight I'm playing Link Between Worlds
I've got a place to go
I don't even need to tell ya
I'm the boy that you'll never know
At least I've still got Zelda
And if I found a way to make you understand
Then it would be the song of time
And if I make it through this treacherous land
You're never going to be mine
I've got a place to go
I don't even need to tell ya
I'm the boy you'll never know
At least I've still got Zelda
I've got a place to go
I don't even need to tell ya
I'm the boy that you'll never know
At least I've still got Zelda
I'm the boy
I'm the boy
At least I've still got Zelda
I'm the boy
I'm the boy
At least I've still got Zelda

When I See You Today
02:20
|
|||
When I see you today, I won't get nervous
My brain won't turn off, it won't go out of service
Last time I wound up talking to some guy about my band
I should have been asking you out to Campbell's Dairy Land
You walked on by and my mental stability fled
I heard a Reggie song inside of my head
Well some people are boring
And they don't wanna hang
But I just wanna take you out to the mall each day
And you're my kind of girl
Yeah you're the only one for me
We could be fun, can't you see?
You've got me singin' along in my car again
I listen to The Easy Button every time I'm drivin'
You like Gatorade and I like water
You're cuter to me than that girl on Harry Potter
Oh yeah
Well some people are boring
And they don't wanna hang
But I just wanna take you out to the mall each day
And you're my kind of girl
Yeah you're the only one for me
We could be fun, can't you see?
Well some people are boring
And they don't wanna hang
But I just wanna take you out to the mall each day
And you're my kind of girl
Yeah you're the only one for me
We could be fun, can't you see?

Never Text Me Again
01:22
|

I was home relaxing in my room
Everything was great
Plus my favorite show was on the tube
Watching season 8
Then I got a text that read
"Your band's a joke and punk is dead"
But I'll just ignore what you said
Never text me again
(Never text me)
Never text me again
(Never text me)
If you really were my friend
You'd know this isn't just pretend
Never text me again
Bought a shirt online 3 months ago
But it didn't fit
Now they text me every week or so
Unsolicited
I don't care about your sales
Don't want your texts or your emails
Cuz all of your products have failed
Never text me again
(Never text me)
Never text me again
(Never text me)
I try to reply "stop" to end
But thend by message doesn't send
Never text me again

Fun til the End
04:12
|
|||
Sunny days, driving in the car
It's where we're from, it's who we are
Hit the road, straight to the show
Playing loud for everyone we know
Summer sun or autumn air
Just name the place and I'll be there
Take the journey with the wind
We're having fun until the end
Not every day will always be that great
Sometimes I feel like I'm running late
Late to live my life to the max
A minecart running off the tracks
Summer sun or autumn air
Just name the place and I'll be there
Take the journey with the wind
We're having fun until the end
And now I know
That I've finally found a place to go
No one's gonna stop my friends, or me
We'll take this road to eternity
Summer sun or autumn air
Just name the place and I'll be there
Take the journey with the wind
We're having fun until the end
We're having fun
We're having fun
We're having fun til the band is done
We're having fun
We're having fun
We're having fun til the band is done
