Ooh wee ohh, I look just like Buddy Holly
Oh, Oh, and you’re Mary Tyler Moore
I don’t care what they say about us anyway
I don’t care about that
Holy sweet goddamn, you left your cello in the basement
I admired the golden stars and tried to play a tune
Can’t believe how bad I suck, it’s true
What could you possibly see
in little ol’ three-chord me?

[li]I’ll bring home the turkey if you bring home the bacon.[/li][li]I’m dumb, she’s a lesbian[/li]I thought I had found the one
we were good as married in my mind
but married in my mind’s no good
[li]Carolers are singing[/li]registers Ka-chinging
And the presents are in place
but I’d rather eat some mace
‘cause the eggnog always makes me sick
[li]Hate you see you lyin’ there in your Superman skivvies[/li]Lying on the floor, I’ve come undone
[/ul]
I can’t help my boogies they get out of control
I know that you don’t care but I want you to know
The knee-stocking flavor is a favorite treat
Of men that don’t bother with the taste of a teat
Oh, come on and kick me
Oh, come on and kick me
Come on and kick me
You’ve got your problems
I’ve got my ass wipe
You’ve got your big cheese
I’ve got my hash pipe
weird. just…weird.
You probably won’t believe this but my mother was actually considering naming me “Weezer” when I was born (circa 1978). I didn’t find out until their first hit came out, after watching the video on MTV (No, not MTV2, there actually used to be videos on MTV.) Mom gets up and says: “I was thinking about naming you Weezer before you were born.” and then just nonchalantly walks into the kitchen to start making dinner. You don’t drop that kind of bomb on someone without a stiff drink.
How stupid is it? I can’t talk about it
I gotta sing about it and make a record of my life
(How stupid is it? Won’t you give me a minute
Just come up to me and say hello to my heart) How stupid is it?
For all I know you want me too and maybe you just don’t know what to do or maybe you’re scared to say: “I’m falling for you”
I wish I could get my head out of the sand ‘cuz I think we’d make a good team
and you would keep my fingernails clean
but that’s just a stupid dream that I won’t realize
‘cuz I can’t even look in your eyes without shakin’, and I ain’t fakin’
I’ll bring home the turkey if you bring home the bacon.
