Send "You're So Last Summer" ringtones to your cell

She said, "Don't, don't let it go to your head.
Boys like you are a dime a dozen,
Boys like you are a dime a dozen."
She said, "You're a touch over-rated.
You're a lush, and I hate it."
But these grass stains on my knees,
They won't mean a thing.

And all I need to know is that I'm something you'll be missin'.
(All I need to know is that I'm something you'll miss. It's pathetic.)
Well, maybe I should hate you for this, (Maybe I should hate you for this.)
Never really did ever quite get that far.
Maybe I should hate you for this, (Maybe I should hate you for this.)
Never really did ever quite get that...

I'd never lie to you,
Unless I had to. I'll do what I got to.
Unless I had to. I'll do what I got to.
The truth is you could slit my throat,
And with my one last gasping breath,
I'd apologize for bleeding on your shirt.

And all I need to know is that I'm something you'll be missin'.
(All I need to know is that I'm something you'll miss. It's pathetic.)
Well, maybe I should hate you for this, (Maybe I should hate you for this.)
Never really did ever quite get that far.
Maybe I should hate you for this, (Maybe I should hate you for this.)
Never really did ever quite get that...

Cuz I'm a wishful thinker with the worst intentions,
This'll be the last chance you'll get to drop my name.
Cuz I'm a wishful thinker with the worst intentions,
This'll be the last time you'll get to drop my name.

If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar. (Maybe I should hate you for this.)
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar.
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar. (Maybe I should hate you for this.)
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar.
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar. (Maybe I should hate you for this.)
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar.
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar. (Maybe I should hate you for this.)
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar.

Maybe I should hate you for this.
(If only you knew half as much as you pretend to.)
Maybe I should hate you for this.
(If only you knew half as much as you pretend to.)

2 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I absolutely adore this song...everything about it. It's catches you right from the beginning... she said don't... don't let it go to your head. Boys like you are a dime a dozen. Boys like you are a dime a dozen. She said... you're a touch overrated you're a lush and I hate it. Adam's voice is one of the best and few that I can listen to for hours on end. Tell that do Dashboard... For how much I love them too, Adam's voice will kick Chris Carrabba's anyday...hands down. And that's not to mention TBS's phenomenal lyrical ability. They have some of the most uniqe ways of saying things that just have a way of connecting with people. I met them on Warped in San Fransisco and they were awesome. Let's just hope they don't get jaded and stay the same ol' Taking Back Sunday that we all know and love. ROCK ON [b]LOVE YOU

198 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Obviously my favorite part is the throat slitting. Heh, this is a great song. I love it. But what I hate is that those little teeny-boppers hear that part of the lyrics and just go with it. I don't think they even listen to it. PISSES ME OFF.

27 posts	dude, i totally agree. they just know the song b/c it was on mtv... they probably havent even bought the cd... their are a bunch of great songs... and on their new cd... if you like this song, i do think you should buy the cd's b/c they kick ass. but really, dont be playin like you know everything about the band when you only maybe know 2 songs or so... c'mon thats just queer.

26 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Yes, the lyrics are good, and that one line (I'm sure you all know what I'm talking about) is really great, but seriously... *the lead singer's voice SUCKS*. You know it does. Don't deny it. There is nothing special about his voice.
