Never thought I’d see the day when the board went pay and I can’t stay I can post for a month but when the time is up you can call me banned but they won’t call me guest I’ll be inactive, baby, yeah I’ll be inactive, baby, yeah You’re not missing me I’m not your biggest hero You never knew me I’ve been gone for so very long You hardly knew me, baby I hardly knew you, either If I could go back in time I’d visit you more I really would If I could go back in time I’d listen to you more I hope you’d listen to me too The best things in life aren’t free, baby And I heard this day might come I didn’t think it would I feel bummed, man It was nice knowing you, baby See you around, baby The pace changes a lot and I didn’t make any distinction between the verses. Also it doesn’t rhyme except when it does.
