Hey look we're at a party I'm the guy at the party I got the guitar at the party And I'll play it for you Don't you wish you had the guitar Be the guitar guy at the party Well I'm that guy and you you're just you Because I'm playing this guitar Cuz I hope that they'll remember me Whenever they talk about the party That we're all at Because I'm playing guitar I'm gonna play it all night And there's nothing you can do about it no there's not Because all the girls gonna like me cuz I play guitar Yes even your girlfriend's gonna like me cuz I'm playing guitar Four chords all you need is four chords Cept I'm only playing three

Somewhere someone's taking up the space and someday I will see his face and it will probably be mine Somewhere someone's got to have a way to make a day be something I can feel was not a waste of time Somewhere someone's got to have a feeling they can make me feel to feel as though I really should have cared Somewhere someone's going to the funeral of someone else and one day someone else will go to theirs

What you ain't heard of me Yeah I'm living the life you know Check this good shit out you know Eating cold pizza, playing pacman I got the real 2600 too bitches None of that TVGames shit I know how to party too check it Got mad ambition and so I think I might go for the job washing dishes in the sink After one more drink Two liter bottle gunpowder in the dome Blow out the streetlights and run back home Toking up alone And I'm a singer too I'ma sing now This dump is my land it isn't your land Would you really want this I didn't think so Oh yeah a voice like that I'ma make me a heartbreaker Yes I'm breaking hearts I got the high score at life too you know I got a microwave I got guitar strings I got I got a pair of headphones that still works, deck of cards Facebook account in good standing 181970 points in Dig Dug, shit who wouldn't want this combo meal Fist in the TV head in the oven Got a suicidal streak and depression I'm lovin Nothing else rhymes with oven that fits the rhythm at all, shit And so I'm thinkin about this time I think I probably could've written up a better rhyme But I just do this instead cuz I don't feel like tryin Yeah all the badass songs get an instrumental break No singin no talkin just I'ma let the harmonica take us out Because harmonica's a sexual instrument

I've got magic in my veins We're electric and we'll never get that old Motherfuck yeah Let's pretend ourselves a tragedy It's so much better when there's tragedy Yeah and I wasted all my time again Yes I did And I could trace it And I won't find a thing except So you're with me now You're not with me now Oh there's Hannah The girl I don't know and she don't know me And that's okay Watch her coming and watch her go Nothing to see And nothing to say

I'm so glad I'm not smart because if I was smart then people would probably expect more from me than they get So it's good to keep everybody's expectations low Oh I flip the tape when it stops? I have no idea One of these newfangled digital fuckin year 2000 newfangled contraptions And I just learned how to use it, huh.

about

Jak Is A Four Letter Word New Orleans, Louisiana

this is for me, that is for you; pressure valve #24; justified melodrama; restraint chokes expression; trauma, subdued self-destruction, pure-O, emoting to eyes that hardly give a damn
