You really think that you're bigger than this
To the tune of ten thousand lisps
Who would have thought we'd represent
When I can't take a compliment?
Overexposure is the key
And any focus on me
Is appreciated as it should be

No wonder now
I finally found
The right formula for

You taught me how I play the fool
Every mistake that I make
I couldn't have made without you
What's said is done and plain to see
You take it all too seriously

What better way to make an honest mistake
Than a televised hand of fate
When the world's closing in on you
A decision would be overdue
Now nothing left is out of hand
A stronger jaded man stands
If the world is ending
Then we toast to it

I'm stronger now
But not without
The right formula for

You taught me how I play the fool
Every mistake that I make
I couldn't have made without you
What's said is done and plain to see
Here's all you get from me
Here's all you get from me

I'm down for whatever
What's there left to wait for?
I'm down for whatever
What's there left to wait for?
Wait for?
I wait

You taught me how I play the fool
Every mistake that I make
I couldn't have made without you
What's said is done and plain to see
Here's all you get from me

The Get Up Kids

The Get Up Kids are an American alternative rock band from Kansas City, Missouri. Formed in 1995, the band was a major player in the mid-90's emo scene, otherwise known as the "second wave" of emo music. As they gained prominence, they began touring with bands such as Green Day and Weezer before becoming headliners themselves, eventually embarking on international tours of Japan and Europe. They founded Heroes & Villains Records, an imprint of the successful indie rock label Vagrant Records. While the imprint was started to release albums by The Get Up Kids, it served as a launching pad for several side-projects such as The New Amsterdams and Reggie and the Full Effect. more »
