randy ray jr this record rules! it’s exactly what you’d expect out of a pop punk band! and that’s nowhere near a bad thing. no way. if you like pop punk on any level, you’ll most definitely dig this album. songs about video games and girls, and the occasional life lesson. YES, life lessons! who doesn’t like life lessons!? 5 out of 5! Favorite track: Cooler Things.

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

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

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

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

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

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, 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?

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

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
