lyrics

Only Mark would say
That we were friends
Omar knows my name
From kindergarten

One lost weight, one got the part
They both worked hard, and followed heart
And now they're both on TV
And both better than me

Mark makes people laugh
Omar reads the news
I'm proud of them both
But its not hard for me to choose (MARK)

One lost weight, one got the part
They both worked hard, and followed heart
And now they're both on TV
And both better than me

I miss the old band, I miss Glenayre
I miss Coomber, Brent, and Blair
Hiding out in the back park
Blowing shit up with Chris Clarke
He's the reason I met Mark
And the bands that we would start
One Screw Loose never got us laid
Then we made Noah's Arcade

I wanna be 20 again
I wanna jam like way back when
I wanna play while people bleed
Back at Townhouse 17

Oh ya...I need to borrow some money
And I need somewhere to sleep

So glad this band has come on my radar. If this album had come out in '94/95 it would be considered a classic, a la Trashed or Leche Con Carne. Also the vid for Breakfast at Pamela's is straight-out genius. LukeSpurs
