When I was younger I used to wait anticipate
Mark my calendar on the release date
So Id be the first to hear the brilliant things youd say
Id skip luch for a week
Save up all my money To be the first kid on the block to own your brand new CD
Open your eyes open your eyes open your eyes
Whos gonna show me how to laugh
Open your mouth open your mouth open your mouth
Whos gonna show me how to
Whos going to show me how to laugh?
Whos going to jerk tears from my eyes
Ive memorized every last word and every note
So now whos going to write the songs
I wish the songs I always wish I wrote that song
So did you think you didnt matter anymore
That you werent changing peoples lives
Well youre wrong Such poignant words from you
I heard Thoughts and emotions that were worth so much more than a cheap slogan on a t-shirt
