It Means Everything lyrics

I was sitting and awaiting
Just thinking, contemplating my life when I heard the phone
I picked up the receiver
And I did not believe her
When I heard a voice say you're not alone

[chorus:]
When I am down and I am blue
All I have to do
Is close my eyes and think of you
And the world is new

Life was getting hectic
And things were unexpected
When I first received your call

I was on the outside
Trying to find my way back in
You were the answer
I was searching for, my friend

Life is crazy when you're
Always on your own
It's amazing when you
Realize that you're not alone

I should have known
A long time ago that
You were the one for me
I let my ego bring me down
And that's what blinded me

Life is crazy when you
Don't know what you've done

Just the other day
I was walking by myself
Little kids at play
Old man talking to himself
I went outside to get a drink
Sat down by the door to think
Out of the corner of my eye
Caught a glimpse of the superspy
When he saw me look his way
He jumped down that alley way

Then I saw that man
In his black suit and cadillac
Suckin' on a lollipop

Next night I went on a date
Runnin' to the movies late

Poor old Johnny Ray
Sounded sad upon the radio
Moved a million hearts in mono
Our mothers cried
Sang along, who'd blame them
Now you're grown, so grown, now I must say more than ever
Go toora loora toora loo rye aye
And we can sing just like our fathers

[Chorus:]
Come on Eileen, oh I swear (what he means)
At this moment, you mean everything
With you in that dress my thoughts I confess

Deep in the heart of every man
Lies a hidden dream or plan
To be a milloinaire
Life without a care

Hey cool cat
Does this apply to you
Don't you lie
'Cause you can't hide the truth

I can see what's behind those eyes
Tongue so twisted from tellin' lies
You might think you're strong
But you better not treat me wrong
Or else I'll say so long

[Chorus:]
Goodbye

I wrote this song for you to say i'm sorry
I know that I was wrong and you don't like me
Why, why, why
Must you feel this way
I wish I had the words
I needed to say

[chorus:]
'Cause you and me
We disagree
On everything and everyone
I only want to be your friend again

I hear you're blaming me for all your problems
Well if you'd quit complaining you might solve 'em
I'll try hard to make amends

Lies, to deceive
Tellin' lies, tellin' lies
I can't believe
Lies, to deceive
So many lies, so many lies
Why do we believe

I've done wrong
I've listened to the wrong advice
I saw something in you once
Now I see it ain't so nice
Trouble is, I believed in you
I was the one who was being fooled
But I won't let it be the same
I won't fall back into your little game of

Lies, that deceive

I was on the outside
Trying to find my way back in
You were the answer
I was searching for, my friend

Life is crazy when you're
Always on your own
It's amazing when you
Realize that you're not alone

I should have known
A long time ago that
You were the one for me
I let my ego bring me down
And that's what blinded me

Life is crazy when you
Don't know what you've done

[chorus:]
Spam
It's pink and it's oval
Spam
I buy it at the Mobil
Spam
It's made in Chernobyl
Spam

Now when I was a child
My family was so poor
They didn't have the finer things in life to eat
So we had a plan
In a big blue can
The government substitute for meat

[repeat chorus]

To get me to eat it at dinner
They said I'd grow up like Bruce Jenner
He was a winner that never knew defeat

The other night I tried to go to a show
But the man at the door
He told me no
He said, "No one under 21 allowed"
But he must have been stupid 'cause I saw my friends in the crowd
He said, "You can't buy an alcoholic drink"
"So we don't care what you really think"

[chorus:]
Why's this happened to me
And the show was for free
It sucks to be
Under 21

So I went and got myself a plan that would work

I find myself
I'm just awastin' my time away
No matter what I do
It always ends up the same
One minute moves
Into the next
My life was simple but now it's complex
And it doesn't seem to mean anything at all

And everything I wanna be
Is just another silly dream, you see
But I'll keep dreaming just the same

Sometimes it's hard to be me
When people stand in my way
I get so easily discouraged

Deep in the heart of every man
Lies a hidden dream or plan
To be a millionaire
Life without a care

Hey cool cat
Does this apply to you?
Oh don't you lie?
No, you lie
Cause' you can't hide the truth

I can see what's behind those eyes
YOUR tongue is so twisted from telling lies
You might think you're strong
But you better not treat me wrong
Or else I'll say so long

(Chorus)

Lies, to deceive
Tellin' lies, tellin' lies
I can't believe
Lies, to deceive
So many lies, so many lies
Why do we believe

I've done wrong
I've listened to the wrong advice
I saw something in you once
Now I see it ain't so nice
Trouble is, I believed in you
I was the one who was being fooled
But I won't let it be the same
I won't fall back into your little game of

Lies, that deceive

So I went and got myself a plan that would work

Baby I use to think I loved you so
But now I met someone new and I really just donât know
And Iâve tried to let you know just how I feel
But somehow my emotions mixed up what was fake and real

[chorus]:
Cause you and me
We used to be so good
And things donât seem to be just like they should
And I would never try to hurt you so
But now itâs time for me to try to let you go

I never told you how to live your life
I never said you had to be something you don't want to be
I never said you had to stick around forever
Never said you had to stick around to be with me

[Chorus]:
I ain't going to be responsible
When your life don't end up full
All your talk has become bull
Just what do you see
Don't place the blame on me

Support your local ska band even tho they just may stink

Support them despite what the real musicians just might think

It's ok to lower standards in the name of a good cause

You can bend the rules for us this time and give us your applause

SYLSB

It means so much to me

SYLSB

It's tough to play for free

SYLSB

Why can't they see

It's hard to be a ska band

Hohoho woke up this morning

With a scary feeling

Realized it was november first

Christmas, oh my god it's nearing

"what am I to do?" I said

Then I covered up my head

Prayed for sleep for two more months

Until this holy mess is over

Wasn't that lucky turned on the tv

Beanie babies on the news

Biggest selling gift this year

What's a tired jew to do?

Poor old Johnny Ray
Sounded sad upon the radio

[Chorus:]
Come on Eileen, oh I swear (what he means)
At this moment, you mean everything
With you in that dress my thoughts I confess

Why do you build me up (build me up) Buttercup, baby
Just to let me down (let me down) and mess me around
And then worst of all (worst of all) you never call, baby
When you say you will (say you will) but I need you still
I need you (I need you) more than anyone, darlin'
You know that I have from the start
So build me up (build me up) Buttercup, don't break my heart
