One Night In ’99

Lyrics

Below a pool table I lie One night in '99 Half asleep when that song begins Have to go find out who it is From the basement of the house party I crawl up three flights of stairs Like half a zombie People dancing on my hand I demand Tell me the name of that ridiculously awesome band But no one hears me or gives a shit About a stupid boy at the time unfit to stand on his two legs And ask politely instead he begs "Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me!" A wasted skater, told me their name later Before this, to music I was a hater I had to go and I had to follow through I bought their tapes and soon after I got their tattoo But, by then their voice was dead living on in my headphones With so much left unsaid I wish I could have thanked them personally They did so much for me This goes out to everyone who helped us out along the way Thank you!
