The best song ever.
For those of you that don't know, the best song in the world is History of a Boring Town by Less Than Jake. Thanks to Eel I got to experience that goodness, and it's been in my head literally everyday since he introduced me to it. Well, if you don't know it, you gotta read, hell, I want the lyrics, so I'll just type them out now and stop talking.
Just talked to this girl,
used to live here on my street.
After all these years you're here,
and you remember me.
She said her old boyfriend
Packed up and headed back east
But she always knew someday
That he would go
She just got a new job
and she doubts it'll last
So let's takee a drink and never think
yeah, here's to the past
She said it's so funny
How life burns out so fast
It's just another wasted day
A boring life in a boring town
with the same old crowd
And I used to say that I'd never stay
but I'm rotting here today
With that same old crowd
That's always been around
And I always thought I'd be
The first to go
CHORUS
That same old crowd
that drags me down
Another day in a boring town
That same old crowd
that brings me down
A boring life in a boring town
Just talked to this girl
Used to live here on my street
After all these years you're here,
and it's still just you and me
Sometimes I can't believe after all these years
I just think I'll never leave here
She said it's so funny
How life burns out so fast
Let's take another drink and
here's to the past
CHORUS
And remember when they looked through you
And they looked past me
We were the ones they said would always leave
So when you go, just think of me
Think of meeeeeee (ooooooooh oooooooooh)
A boring life in a boring town
with the same old crowd
And I used to say that I'd never stay
but I'm rotting here today
With that same old crowd
That's always been around
And I always thought that
And I always thought that
And I always thought I'd be
the first to go
A boring life
A boring town
A boring life
A boring town
A boring life
A boring tooooooooooooooooooown
