lyrics

Calvin and Albert
Went down to their neighbor’s house
When something very strange occurred,
They didn’t know how to explain it
Some guy in a car
Had shot a guy on the sidewalk
And their whole little town
Seemed pretty shook up about it.

So they played some videogames
With their friend Chris and his girlfriend
And as they passed their time away
They noticed they hadn’t spoken
Until finally someone had said...
And this and also that
And some more stuff happened before they were dead

I don’t think that it’s anybody’s business
What I do with my free time
I don’t think it’s any of your business
What I wanna do with mine

At a party in October
This drunk girl came up to me
She asked me if I had seen
Becca sometime recently.
I told her, “You must be confused,
I don’t know who the fuck Becca is,
but maybe you could check in that
pile of leaves out in the back”

So I continued to drink
Until I made myself sick of it
And the next day when I saw my face
I had a black eye from I don’t know when
I must have fallen once or twice
On the way home it was very dark
It was the middle of the night

Chorus

It ain’t like nothin’ terrible ain’t happened before today
Always something terrible come to make you regret whatever you say
