Lyrics

[Verse 1] Well, I tripped, I fell down, naked And I scratched, oh, my knees and they bled Sew up, oh, my eyes, need no more In our game, ha, there is, there's no- let's go! (score) [Chorus] Forgive me father, why should you bother? Try honesty! Try honesty! Hop in your dump truck, reverse for good luck Ride over me! Ride over me! Take on this whole world, fight with the young girls Die tragedy! Die tragedy! Call me a cheapskatе, come on for Pete's sakе Cry agony! Cry agony! [Verse 2] Well, I'm insane and it's your fault, but you're so sly And your well of lies, it ran dry And I cut on the cord, free fall From so high, oh, we all seem like we're so, oh so small [Chorus] Forgive me father, why should you bother? Try honesty! Try honesty! Hop in your dump truck, reverse for good luck Ride over me! Ride over me! Take on this whole world, fight with the young girls Die tragedy! Die tragedy! Call me a cheapskate, come on for Pete's sake Cry agony! Cry agony! (Ho!) [Bridge] Hey, hey, hey! I'm insane, it's your fault! (Cry!) I'm insane, it's your fault! (Cry!) I'm insane, it's your fault! (Cry!) [Spoken] Oh, my God... You know, it's, uh- What a crazy couple years we've all been through, huh? And, uh, there were times that I thought to myself That we'd never be able to do this again, you know And so, uhm, I'm incredibly overwhelmed at the moment With just nothing but love and gratitude And just sheer thank you to all of you for coming down here And giving a shit about our fucking band Because, man! What I said, those were some tough couple years And don't get me wrong, the world is still Very much a fucked up place right now But if there's one thing that I learned throughout this whole journey Is just to take each day as it comes to you Be appreciative and try to see the beauty in each day And to be present, wherever you are Just be present and be happy to be there Right, there's nowhere else in the world I'd rather be Than right here, right now with all you people, so- Just remember, that we need more love And more compassion and more understanding And more kindness and we're gonna get through all of this And we'll get through whatever comes our way, okay? [Interlude] So, forgive me father Why should you bother- now? Sing! Forgive me father Why should you bother- oh, yeah! [Chorus] Forgive me father, why should you bother? Try honesty! Try honesty! Hop in your dump truck, reverse for good luck Ride over me! Ride over me! Take on this whole world, fight with the young girls Die tragedy! Die tragedy! Call me a cheapskate, come on for Pete's sake Cry agony! Cry agony! [Outro] Hey, hey, hey! Cry agony! Cry agony! Try honesty! Try honesty! Cry agony! Cry agony! (Ho!) Hoo-ooh-noo! [Spoken] How many people here, uh Are familiar with our second record? Does anybody know our second record? We're gonna play a song of that record and, uh- You know, it dawned on me the other day People ask you sometimes, like "What's your favorite song off that record?" I'm like, "I don't fucking know" Uh, but I will say, I think this next song Is my favorite song on that record And, uh, not only because of- it's just a beautiful song But also just because of how amazing Mister Ian D'Sa is on the guitar *Crowd chants 'Ian'* Yeah, fucking rad So, I'd like for you to sing this with me, okay? If you know the words
