Attack Ships On Fire

3

Ever had a LONG conversation with a woman who is not attracted to you but you wish she were? This is the aftermath. So quit teasing me bitch!

I'm a guy. The story behind this song is that I love women and they're impossible to figure out so I write pissed off songs about my interactions with the "Fairer" sex.

This is not the way I planned it
I wasn't supposed to feel this way
Coming down from the physical high
Falling down to the beer stained floor
This is not the way I planned it
I'm losing without ever keeping score
Tearing down your impenetrable walls
Only to find there are 23 more

I'm fading
I'm failing at staying the course
Wasting time
I'm flailing
I'm beating on a dead horse
Wasting my time

This is not the way I planned it
You're crushing me without a word
This is not the way I planned it
Thrown under the bus without a ticket
This is not the way I planned it
I'm sorry that you don't want more
This is not the way I planned it
I'm leaving now so you can go get some more
Wasting my time

The old story of unrequited love told in very sarcastic manner. All boys, guys, men have had that one girl they long for. The one girl who could make everything ok. The one girl who with a simple glance makes your knees shake and your stomach week. That one girl who, if she would only take two seconds to recognize your mere existence could change your life forever. And that one girl has no idea how great life would if she would just "Dump that zero and get with a hero!." The hero of course is you. You and your shiny white stallion and your sword of lust. Your body armour's shined up and she STILL won't look at you, won't talk to you, and won't be anything to more to you than a wet dream. Jenny is that girl to. And the bitch won't talk to me! But she flipped me off once and I jacked off to that memory for MONTHS!

This song fell together quicker than any song Attack Ships On Fire has ever written. The lyrics just flowed from the first chord having just gotten off the phone with my friend who happens to be named Jen. Being irritated with the conversation made me want to put her name in a song that wasn't very kind...as she isn't very kind... I think it worked out pretty well..

I want to thank you for the gesture
Who knew you were so kind
Taking time out of your day
To defecate on mine

Sexy Jenny won't talk to me
Sexy Jenny won't, she won't, she won't
I'm a terminal toothache
In her eardrum

I want to thank you for the pictures
Photoshop can be so kind
Your clothes are in their way
But they're not in mine
Sexy Jenny won't talk to me
Sexy Jenny won't, she won't, she won't

I want to thank you for that smile
You threw at me today
I know it was an accident
I'll take it anyway
Sexy Jenny won't talk to me
Sexy Jenny won't, she won't, she won't

I hate Brittney Spears. I hate Jessica Simpson. I hate her sister. I hate "Pop-country". I hate anything YOU do because other people are doing it making it look REALLY cool on MTV. FUCK MTV!

I can't watch TV without getting pissed at the shit they shove down your throat calling it "art" or "entertainment." I can't listen to the radio to these fuckin' no-talent hacks playing soulless music for a soulless audience. If there's no passion involved in what you're doing. QUIT.

Keep your friends close
Never let the others see your true colors
Hide beneath your clothes
You never know who might be listening
in on you

Go have a drink or two
Enjoy yourself
And make a friend or two

Suffer shame secretly
As long as you can smile nobody cares
They?ll make concessions for the exception
You?ll live a lifetime of mediocrity
How can you live with you

Enjoy yourself
Without ever growing up
Keep your friends close

Where are your clothes
There are no practice runs at life
Not even for you

What a day
Turned my mind off
I'm running on adrenaline
Keep my hands clean
Eyes open
Walk into the delirium

This is my day

Take a second
Wrap my mind around
The possibilities eventually
Keep my options free
Wide open
Step out of the consortium

This is my day

Roll me over
Check my heart rate
This isn't what should be reality
Put my hands up
Hear my rights
Take my gun away from me simplicity

This is my day

There is my family
Standing in a half moon
We're all listening
To the man in the suit

Hey Mom are you proud of me
I hope to God that you're proud of me
It's ok to smile at me

Where is my family
Have they gone to the moon
Are they all shimmering
Examples of truth

Hey Mom are you proud of me
I hope to God that you're proud of me
It's ok to laugh with me

You told me that I could be
Anything that I wanted to be in this world

Hey Mom are you proud of me
I hope to God that you're proud of me
It's ok to cry with me

Which side of the moon did you wake up on today
Could you come back to earth for a minute
What more did you expect for me to say
I made you breakfast
Where's you mind at today you seem upset
Are you confused by the sight of eggs
Take one deep breath and you'll know for sure
I made you breakfast

Eat up
I made you breakfast
What's the matter honey
Aren't you hungry

Where's all this hostility coming from
I know last night you were having fun
I cooked for you extra runny eggs
Well-buttered toast, a side of bacon grease
Canned corned beef hash with extra bacon fat
You look confused, do you feel ok
Go say your prayers in the bathroom
Hey, we're going out again tonight right

Eat up
I made you breakfast
What's the matter sugar
No appetite

Your food's getting cold
I made you breakfast

Breathe it in
Take a moment to let your self go
Exhale slow
Just a second in time, then go flow

You?re not feeling the moment
You ?re not seeing the goal
You?re not getting the crux of it
You?re not living

Dry your eyes
There?s no crying in rock and roll
Blow your nose
It?s your fault you?re where you?re at
You?re not feeling the moment
You?re not seeing the goal
You?re not getting the crux of it
You?re not living
Sell your soul
Paid gigs and free booze will even it out

Get outta my way
Get outta my way
Get outta my my way you fuckin' cupcake

Vigilante on the roadway
Makin' stupid motherfuckers pay
Did you not know that that was my way
You're in it
You're in it

Slower traffic please keep to the right
The left lane is for passing only
Did you not know that that was my way
You're in it
You're in it

This is my way

Get outta my way
Get outta my way
Get outta my my way you fuckin' cupcake

Where is the exit
Pass through the corridor
Knocked down the doorman
Took out the bartender

I'm not about to leave
You can't take it away from me
I'm not about to leave
You can't take it away from me

Give me directions
Map out the quadrangle
Abscond with nothing
Feel like I won the Super Bowl

I'm not about to leave
You can't take it away from me
Where is the exit
Where is the corridor
