So let me play my violin for you
The truth is that I'm screwed
Still Joe, do you think I'm cool?
I got friends in a lotta weird places
Wonder if they're gonna call depending what my face is
I got friends in a lotta weird places
Wonder if they're gonna call depending what my face is

Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty went down
He said screw it
Imma smile right through it
And I'll scream when no one's around
Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty went down
He said screw it
Im'a smile right through it
And I'll scream when no one, when no one, when no one's around
Da da da da da da da da-ah-ah
Da da da da da da da-ah
(And I'll scream when no one, when no one, when no one's around)
One day, maybe someday
I'll be so out of touch
I'll become a trumpet or a drumset
In a sad orchestra
One day, maybe someday
In a world speeding up
It's getting hard, so very hard to keep up
One day, maybe someday
I'll be so out of touch
I'll become a trumpet or a drumset
In a sad orchestra
One day I won't know what to write
And I can't be eighteen my whole life
But I'm too f*cking young
To feel so f*cking old
But I'll try and I'll try and I'll try...
But I'm not dead yet so I guess I'll be alright
Bang, bang, bang
But I'm way less sad
Adventure is out there
Come on guy
Bang, bang, bang
But it's all I have
But I'm not dead yet so I guess I'll be alright

Bummerland
Bummerland
Here I am
Better nix my summer plans
Bummerland
Give a cheer
'Cause you're only going up from here
This month
I got seven haircuts
And now my hair is all gone
It's sad but
I've been alone for too long
So I keep getting haircuts
It's my all time low
And I just can't wait
'Cause the quicker I'm there
Is the quicker I'll say
Bummerland
Here I am
Better nix my summer plans
Bummerland
Give a cheer
'Cause you're only going up from here
Bummerland
Here I am
Better nix my summer plans
Bummerland
Sorry dear
But you're only going up from here
My friends
Always pay for my drinks
I can't afford no nice things
But I hope
My bank account gets so low
Even zero
So next year
When I buy that first beer
I'll be a goddamn hero
It's my all time low
And I just can't wait
'Cause the quicker I'm there
Is the quicker I'll say
Bummerland
Here I am
Better nix my summer plans
Bummerland
Sorry dear
But you're only going up from here
It's my all time low
And I just can't wait
'Cause the quicker I'm there
Is the quicker I'll say
Bummerland
Here I am
Better nix my summer plans
Bummerland
Give a cheer
'Cause you're only going up from here
Bummerland
Here I am
And there ain't no funner land
Bummerland
It's kinda weird
But you're only going up from here
Here I am
Better nix my summer plans
Bummerland
Give a cheer
'Cause you're only going up from here
This month
I got seven haircuts
And now my hair is all gone
It's sad but
I've been alone for too long
So I keep getting haircuts

3 OClock Things
Come on guy, I promise everything will be alright, be okay
Your eyes are tired but keep 'em open
'Cause you wouldn't want to miss a thing
(Come on guy, I promise everything will be alright, be okay)
(Your eyes are tired, but keep 'em open)
('Cause you wouldn't want to miss a thing)
It's kinda funny how I paid for college when YouTube was an option
But then I would've had to spend my best years
Skipping ads and reading comments
And when the hell did advertisements get so good? They're like narcotics
So now I'm spending every penny I own
I should've allotted to finishing college
It's kinda funny how I keep debating
If someone's shy or if they hate me
I feel like everyone I know right now
Is hooking up and getting wasted (without me)
And maybe sex is overrated but we're too shy to ever say it (say it)
So we pretend we're all amazing
It's three AM I should be sleeping (sleeping)
Would you go running if you saw the real me?
Maybe you'd love 'em
Yeah, maybe you'd feel me
But I'll never ask you, no that's super scary
Sorry to bail, it's already three o'clock
It's too hard to tell if anything's real or not
It's kinda funny how you vote for someone
To vote for someone, to vote for someone (someone)
And you might end up with someone evil but you say that he means well
If I keep on talking politics, my friends will dip, they're over it
If I keep on talking politics, I'm Hamilton (without the hits)
Would you go running if you saw the real me?
Maybe you'd love 'em
Yeah, maybe you'd feel me
But I'll never ask you, no that's super scary
Sorry to bail, it's already three o'clock
It's too hard to tell if anything's real or not
(Come on guy, I promise everything will be alright, be okay)
(Your eyes are tired, but keep 'em open)
('Cause you wouldn't want to miss a thing)
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da
Isn't this obvious? Am I insane?
Let's blame our parents 'cause they taught us their ways
Stay out of politics, stay on the fence
Stay out of all of it to keep half your fans
Isn't this obvious? Am I insane?
There might be two sides to everything that you say
It's all a bit cloudy but there's one thing I know
That if you're f*cking racist then don't come to my show
(No, we have to do one more)
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da
Your eyes are tired but keep 'em open
'Cause you wouldn't want to miss a thing
(Come on guy, I promise everything will be alright, be okay)

Bang
I get up, I get down and I'm jumpin' around
And the rumpus and ruckus are comfortable now
Been a hell of a ride but I'm thinkin' it's time to grow
(Bang! Bang! Bang!)
So I got an apartment across from the park
Put quinoa in my fridge, still I'm not feelin' grown
Been a hell of a ride but I'm thinkin' it's time to go
(Bang! Bang! Bang!)
(Here we go)
So put your best face on, everybody
Pretend you know this song, everybody
Come hang
Let's go out with a bang
(Bang! Bang! Bang!)
I'm way too young to lie here forever
I'm way too old to try, so whatever
Come hang
Let's go out with a bang
(Bang! Bang! Bang!)
Feel like I'm gonna puke 'cause my taxes are due
Do my password begin with a one or a two?
Been a hell of a ride but I'm thinkin' it's time to grow
(Bang! Bang! Bang!)
(Metronome)
Man, I'm up to something (up to something), ooh-dee-la-dee-doh
Thank you all for comin' (all for coming), I hope you like the show
'Cause it's on a budget, so ooh-dee-la-dee-doh
Yeah, come on here we go, yeah, come on (here we go)
So put your best face on, everybody
Pretend you know this song, everybody

I'm way too old to try, so whatever
Come hang (come hang)
Let's go out with a bang
(Bang! Bang! Bang!)
(Here we go)
(Bang! Bang!)

The Trick
These are our drums

Da da da da da da da da-ah-ah
Now listen closely as our drums become our melody
And here's our song:
Da da da da da da da da-ah-ah
Da da da da da da da-ah
Da da da da da da da da-ah-ah
Da da da da da da da-ah-ah
So let me play my violin for you
Ahh ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ahh ah-ah
Ahh ah-ah-ah
So let me play my violin for you
The truth is that I'm screwed
Still Joe, do you think I'm cool?
I got friends in a lotta weird places
Wonder if they're gonna call depending what my face is
I got friends in a lotta weird places
Wonder if they're gonna call depending what my face is

Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty went down
He said screw it
Imma smile right through it
And I'll scream when no one's around
Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty

He said screw it
Im'a smile right through it
And I'll scream when no one, when no one, when no one's around

(And I'll scream when no one, when no one, when no one's around)
One day, maybe someday
I'll be so out of touch
I'll become a trumpet or a drumset
In a sad orchestra
One day, maybe someday
In a world speeding up
It's getting hard, so very hard to keep up
One day, maybe someday
I'll be so out of touch
I'll become a trumpet or a drumset
In a sad orchestra
One day I won't know what to write
And I can't be eighteen my whole life
But I'm too f*cking young
To feel so f*cking old
But I'll try and I'll try and I'll try...
But I'm not dead yet so I guess I'll be alright
Bang, bang, bang
But I'm way less sad
Adventure is out there
Come on guy
Bang, bang, bang
But it's all I have
But I'm not dead yet so I guess I'll be alright
This is our melody
Da da da da da da da da-ah-ah

Ordinaryish People
Your happy friends call you depressing
Cause you wonder why we're all alive
Your downer friends think you're too happy, too happy
Cause you still celebrate sometimes
Your hippie friends call you a sell-out
Cause you buckled down and gained a job
You still get high but you're no hippie, no hippie
But all your work friends think you are
I guess the last time you had any fun
Was way back when you weren't anyone
So goodbye ordinaryish people
We had quite the run didn't we, though?
But you gotta be somebody sometime
I don't wanna pack up and leave, though
When you're nobody, then nobody minds
Your pretty friends, they call you ugly
Your ugly friends, they call you vain
No you're not stupid, you're just special, special
Well that's what all your smart friends say
I guess the last time you had any fun
(Oh the last time you had any fun)
Was way back when you weren't anyone
(Way back when you weren't anyone)
So goodbye ordinaryish people
We had quite the run didn't we, though?
But you gotta be somebody sometime
I don't wanna pack up and leave, though
When you're nobody, then nobody minds
(Your attention, please)
(Please, please yell if you're paying attention)
I don't wanna pack up and leave, though
When you're nobody, then nobody minds

(Hey, hey, hey)
(Hey, hey, hey)
(Hey, hey, hey)
(Hey, hey, hey)
(Hey, hey, hey)
I should move 'cause New York is gettin' muddy out
There's L.A. but it's always kinda sunny out
And I don't wanna hurt no more
So I set my bar real low
I'm A-okay, I'm A-okay
You say it but you just don't mean it
You're so insane, you're so insane
Shut up and just enjoy this feelin'
Don't you love it? Don't you love it?
No, I ain't happy yet
But I'm way less sad
Don't you love it? Don't you love it?
No, I ain't happy yet
But I'm way less sad

I wake up and I'm not so mad at Twitter now
Livin' sucks but it's suckin' just a little now
And I don't wanna cry no more
So I set my bar real low
I'm A-okay, I'm A-okay
You say it but you just don't mean it
You're so insane, you're so insane
Shut up and just enjoy this feelin'

It's stupid, but it's all I have
Don't you love it? Don't you love it?
No, I ain't happy yet
But I'm way less sad
Well, I can't fall asleep and I'm losin' my mind
'Cause it's half-past three and my brain's on fire
I've been countin' sheep but the sheep all died
And I'm tryin' too hard but I can't not try
Well, I can't fall asleep and I'm losin' my mind
'Cause it's half-past three and my brain's on fire (brain's on fire)
I've been countin' sheep but the sheep all died
And I'm not dead yet, so I guess I'll be alright
