1996년 EVERYTHING SUCKS 이후 무려 8년만에 DESCENDENTS가 신보를 발매했다. 단지 EPITAPH에서 FATWRECK으로 레이블이 바뀌었다는 것 이외에도 8년이라는 세월을 무색하게 한다. 꾸준히 에너지 넘치는 유머를 더한 팝 펑크 속에는 과거 그들의 찬가에 비할만 한 것이다. WELCOME BACK!!!
Talking about our life, no matter how much I don't like Talk is never cheap between you and me Look at how far we've come and still we always come undone Maybe that's how it always has to be
I'm out here alone, talking on the phone Tensions are rising, it's never surprising This is the way it goes Maybe we'll fall in love when I get home
Talking about our life, seems like we never get it right But we always get an A for effort We sweat to find what to say, communication's the only way If we ever hope to stay together, communicate
I'm out here alone, talking on the phone Tensions are rising, it's never surprising This is the way it goes Maybe we'll fall in love when I get home
Tell me the problem, I wanna know If there's a solution, I'll fix it now And if there isn't, I'll just be there If I don't say something, don't say I don't care
Well, I go yaddadda-yadda-ya And you go yaddadda-yadda-ya Yaddadda-yadda-yadda That's what we gotta do
I'm out here alone, talking on the phone Tensions are rising, it's never surprising This is the way it goes Maybe we'll fall in love when I get home
Maybe we'll fall in love When I get home I said, maybe we'll fall in love When I get home
I don't wanna move I'll just sit here in my living room and See what's on the tube While I'm hanging out with you
People knock on my door, ringing my phone Telling me the things I gotta get done today To satisfy them, but what about me? Lately I've been wishing I was brain dead No responsibilities in my head today Maybe we'll see what's on TV
Doing nothing, having fun Off to bed to get things done I'm not lazy - I'm in love
I don't wanna move I'll just sit here in my living room and See what's on the tube While I'm hanging out with you
People pressing my flesh, taking my time They don't know a thing about my life with you I'm trying real hard - it's hard not to care 'Cause all I ever really want to do Is sit around doing nothing with you, because Nothing's only fun when you're there
Another night of maybe and almost Abandoning a land of passin' ghosts
Just a lot of sad people forgive them Lord They don't care what they do Or who they do it to At the dog and pony show
They don't wanna know
To think I could have stayed home Instead of watching this ugly lust and ordinary dirt But no one cares, so nobody gets hurt
Just a lot of sad people forgive them Lord They don't care who they do Or what it does to you At the dog and pony show They don't wanna know They're doing some blow
They all stand in line and take their chances Roping all their robot dances
Dying to get off There's a lot of pretty girls here looking tight They're not good girls But they're good for the night They're telling me to buzz off Well that's okay, cause I never liked them anyway
It's no place for a mongrel mutt like me Mating rights go to the best of breed
Just a lot of sad people Caught in between Desire and despair I guess I'll see you there At the lost and lonely Dog and pony show
They don't wanna know They don't wanna know They don't wanna know So afraid and alone
Stay away from the chilli verde you take the heat - it's gonna bite back

Why do I daydream? Why do I get my hopes up at all? I've been living this Walter Mitty life For too long Somebody save me I'm a prisoner of my own fear Sometimes fantasy is the only Thought I can bear My mind is a dream-filled balloon Dripping dreams into my shoes And I'm too afraid to move To face the real worldAnd when I fall, I fall down hard When will I ever learn? Don't take your dreams to heart You'll only wind up gettingBurnedMaybe I'm lazy But circumstances always knock me down So I'll just lie here, never get up Off the ground But maybe it's crazy To sit and think of all the things I wanna do What's the use in dreaming when dreams Never come true? And when I fall, I fall down hard When will I ever learn? Don't take your dreams to heart You'll only wind up gettingBurned Why do I daydream? Why do I daydream? Why do I bother? Why? Time to get up off your ass Pull your head out — take a chance Grab whatever you can grab 'Cause there's no such thing창?짝 No such thing
I don't believe in unity It's just one more abandoned dream Once the people get together it's easy to see It's just a matter of time before they come after me
But it must be pretty cool to be you with your brothers at your back protecting you It must be pretty cool to know you belong Isolated my whole life, counting scars in the land of smiling knives Yes, I'm envious it's true, but it must be cool to be you
You got a loving family To give you everything you need My family loves each other so much We live a thousand miles away and never stay in touch
But it must be pretty cool to be you with a home and a family to go home to It must be pretty cool to know you belong Isolated my whole life, counting scars in the land of smiling knives Yes, I'm envious it's true, but it must be cool to be you
What can I do? I know this bitter jealousy is wrong Maybe I'll move And find a brand new place I don't belong
Some friends I'll never know New places I can't go 'Cause everywhere I've been Is on outside looking in
You got a deep sustaining faith A Lord who listens when you pray I was raised in the church and I was told to believe I wonder if God believes in me
It must be pretty cool to be you with your holy faith sustaining you It must be pretty cool to know you belong Isolated my whole life, counting scars in the land of smiling knives Yes, I'm envious it's true, but it must be cool to be you
Come on baby, we gotta get our clothes on There'll be no easy days, ‘cause I've got no degree You'll see your brother in a week or three, here's a picture of me Just don't let them see, ‘cause they're not that fond of me
They're gonna tell you that I'm not real But their time is through And I'll be the one Yeah, I'll see this through
I'll fight for you No one else is going to They're too busy fighting over you
Come on baby, we gotta get our plane now Punk rock won't pay the bills, so we gotta get started early I'd like to hang around here with you Got a life to teach you, just you and me
But everyone's just gotta see you They're gonna tell you that I'm not real But their time is through and I'm with you still And I'll be the one, yeah, I'll see this through
I'll fight for you No one else is going to They're too busy fighting over you
They're gonna tell you that I'm not real But we're having fun together everyday What could be more real than that to a girl and her dad? And there's no way they can brainwash you away from me
Come on baby, I gotta try to explain things There's no easy way to say these things to you There's no easy way to tell you what is real
So come on baby, let's just go home now I'll be responsible I'll do everything I have to
Instead of fighting over you Yeah, I'll be the one, I'll be invisible And there's no way they can brainwash you I'll see it through
I'll be invincible Come on baby They're gonna tell you that I'm not real I'll fight for you
Not fighting over you And there's no way they can brainwash you I'll fight for you Come on baby, there's no way we can lose
Spent the last years in denial of my grief Because you hated me, anyone could see I'll always wonder what I meant to you And why you hated me, what I did to you
And I can't get anywhere Pretending that I don't care Lying to everyone I see When the only thing I needed
Was one more day like yesterday I'd pick you up, you'd put me down Wish you were still around For one more day like yesterday with you
And in the end we didn't have a thing to say Still those games to play, then you passed away I'll always wonder why you had to leave Why you hated me, then laid the blame on me
Cold antiseptic stares The smell of the sickroom air Yeah, I let you go down there The only child who never cared
About one more day like yesterday I'd pick you up, you'd put me down Wish you were still around For one more day like yesterday with you
I'll always wonder if I could have meant more to you I'll always wonder if I could have done more for you How I could just turn my back, how I could just walk away How I could just close my eyes and watch you die
We never got along We never got a chance To sing our song of love
I loved my daddy boy, did you love your boy? Oh, you feel so warm to me now, it's cold in this room Tomorrow they'll put you in the ground Then there's nothing I can ever do
To have one more day like yesterday I'd pick you up, you'd put me down Wish you were still around For one more day like yesterday with you
One more day like yesterday One more day like yesterday One more day
Time for a new me I hear they're having a sale at Thrifty I'm trading myself in And I don't care what I get for it
'Cause I finally burned out, been kicking myself for way too long Finally found out What it feels like to be living a lie, wasting my time, paralyzed Wishing I was in another world
I'm taking a new tack Gotta turn my back to turn back I don't wanna close doors But I don't wanna feel this way anymore
So I'm finding my way out by turning away from a brick wall Finally found out What it feels like to be living a lie, wasting my time, paralyzed Wishing I was in another world
Somebody tell me what to do I've wasted my last 15 years jumping through their hoops Only to find nothing waiting for me But academic oblivion, my proud destiny
See, I finally burned out, been kicking myself for way too long Finally found out What it feels like to be living a lie, wasting my time, paralyzed Wishing I was in another world
Wishing I was in another world I was wishing I was in another world Somebody tell me what to do
Wishing I was in another world Somebody tell me what to do Wishing I was in another world Somebody tell me what to do
I was wishing I was in another world Time for a new me
Love in our hearts We didn't know the world is complicated Gleam in our eyes Time would show just what our love was made of
Who knew the way things work In this world we've made for ourselves? Where I work myself to death And you raise the kids
Can't we try to amend our path of struggle for a while? To pretend our lives are free and carefree still And that I just fell in love with you At the Anchor Grill
Money and time We didn't know they'd be so hard to come by Look and you'll find We didn't know that's just some fabled school rhyme
We'll never get ahead in this world Not ‘till we move ahead of this world We've made for ourselves Where there's no time to kiss, no room to even breathe
Can't we try to amend our path of struggle for a while? To pretend our lives are free and carefree still And that I just fell in love with you At the Anchor Grill
It's our life It's standing right in front of me It's our time And we know the way we wanna be, can't you see?
So let's drop the kids at your folks Let's go Where it's never too late for breakfast And everything's gonna get better
Can't we try to amend our path of struggle for a while? To pretend our lives are free and carefree still 'Cause I just fell in love with you At the Anchor Grill
If it was for me, I thought it would come so easy I never realized life's just a series of lows and highs I just wanna create, it doesn't matter how I do it Nobody ever said there's nothing to it Goosebumps been gone for way too long Couldn't get it for free, couldn't do it for the money It just disappeared — spent a lot of barren years and If it doesn't work out, you can just set it down for later Nobody ever said you'd be dead forever Goosebumps been gone for way too long Who knows how long they'll stick around If it was for me, I thought it would come so easy I never realized life's just a series of lows and highs But nobody ever said there's nothing to it! Couldn't get it for free, didn't wanna have to try to do it Goosebumps been gone for way too long Who knows how long they'll stick around Goosebumps been gone for way too long Who knows how long they'll stick aroundPlease stick around
