"Howwhywuz, Howwhyam" lyrics
"Howwhywuz, Howwhyam"
I used to talk to cab drivers
Well, now I just don't bother
I'd empty out my pockets
If someone asked me for a quarter
There was a time that I'd give the time
To the old, the weak, and the weird
I just don't know why this is so
But I've never been so scared
Am I getting older?
Are things getting harder?
I used to never cry when I would think about my father
The years went past so goddamn fast
You know, I've left a lot behind
My devil could care attitude
You know, I just can't seem to find
And once upon a time I never minded very much
I never let it knock me down or grind me out of touch
Am I getting older?
Are things getting harder?
I used to never cry when I would think about my father
Well, once I had an outlook
Different than it is
Full of dreams and schemes
It seems they just do not exist
And once I told myself
He will not be missed
No no no, I never thought that I would see the day
I'd ever feel like this
Am I getting older?
Are things getting harder?
I used to never cry when I would think about my father
Am I getting older?
Are things getting harder?
I used to never cry when I would think about my father
I used to never cry
I used to never cry
I used to never cry when I would think about my father

Poor old Johnnie Ray
Sounded sad upon the radio
He moved a million hearts in mono
Our mothers used
To sing along
Who would blame them?

Reel Big Fish - "Take On Me" Talking away
I don't know what's left to say
I'm sayin' it anyway
Today's not my day to find you
Shying away
I'll be coming for your love o.k.?
Take on me, take me on
I'll be gone
In a day...

Yes, I think you know it's true

Suicidal Tendencies - "Institutionalized" Sometimes, I try to do things
And it just doesn't work out the way I want it to
And I get real frustrated
And like, I try hard to do it
And I like, take my time, but it just doesn't work out the way...
Lit - "Zip-lock" I've been stealing
Time where I can get it from
I've been losing
Grip on what I used to hold
If I could get another chance
I'd put it in a zip-loc bag
And keep it in my pocket
Keep it in my pocket...
