there's a ska band on my street, a little ska band

everybody thinks they're so fuckin' neat,

there was nothin' on the radio

was gonna make my own band, play my own shows

but that don't work so i'm givin' up again,

she said she loved me cause i played guitar

that's ok, i didn't love her at all and i say...

i'm givin' up

i know everything sucks, and this is gonna be the last

time you hear me complain



well, i went down to the show

everybody was there, i didn't wanna go

cause everything they do is so fuckin' cool, every song is a hit and the

girls like'em too, i can't do that so

i'm givin' up again...i don't know why i learned

to play guitar, nobody's gonna know who we are and i say..



i'm givin' up

i know everything sucks and this is gonna be

the last time you hear me complain



she said, some day, we'll get back together maybe

she said, some day, things'll be much better baby

but i don't believe her

and i don't think i need her anymore...



i know everything sucks

and this won't be the last time you hear me complain
