Phillip and Tommy they started a band In Tom's bedroom when they were 15 They played as loud and as fast as they possibly could Until Tom's neighbours called the police So they asked their friend Mike if they could rehearse in his parents garage He said I'll talk to my mom and my dad, but only if you let me play in the band But Mike couldn't sing He couldn't play anything But they still let him in because they knew that none of this Matters as much as we think it matters As much as we thought it mattered When we were young When we thought everything mattered Much more than it does So Philip and Tommy and Mike started writing a couple of songs about hating the man Hating the cool kids and the cops About how their mothers and fathers and teachers Just can't ever know What it's like to be fifteen Misunderstood, insecure and alone About how the world has forgotten us all About how the things we think will make us happy don't Matters as much as we think it matters As much as we thought it mattered When we were young When we thought everything mattered Much more than it does Phillip and Tommy and Mike always thought that they'd tour round the world Playing their music to thousands of fans Who would scream for one more As they walked off the stage But they never left their hometown and broke up after 3 or 4 years of playing house parties, scout halls and high school talent shows But they made us sing and throw up our fists And just for a second they made us feel infinite Like we belong Like our salvation could be found in a song They helped us figure out the rights from the wrongs And just for a second They made us feel like this matters They made us feel like this matters It matters to us that it matters to you When you stand in the crowd With a smile on your face and your fist in the air Matters as much as we think it matters As much as we thought it mattered When we were young When we thought everything mattered Much more than it does
