Song lyrics
My name is Jonas
I'm carrying the wheel
Thanks for all you've shown us
But this is how we feel
Come sit next to me
Pour yourself some tea
Just like grandma made
When we couldn't find sleep
Things were better then
Once but never again
We've all left the den
Let me tell you 'bout it

The choo-choo train left right on time
A ticket cost only your mind
The driver said "hey man, we go all the way"
Of course we were willing to pay.

My name is WEPEEL
I gotta box full of your toys
They're fresh out of batteries
But they're still makin' noise
...makin' noise...
Tell me what to do
Now the tank is dry
Now this wheel is flat
And you know what else?
Guess what I received in the mail today
Words of deep concern from my little brother

The building's not goin' as he planned
The foreman has injured his hand
The dozer will not clear its path
The driver swears he learned his math

The workers are goin' Home! (repeat)

My Name is Jonas

I think the melody's very catchy. And I understand the song, to an extent. *shrugs*

This song just needs a little bit of though, a bit which some people arn't willing to give *shrugs*.

Good melody, and if this is what Pat's writing is like, I want to see more of it!

This song is okay, but I don't listen to it and think "Wow" or "I like this song."

Just "Oh."

If there's emotion in it, I don't feel it.

It's not a bad song. I just don't love it!

One thing about it is the beginning. It starts too loud. Now if the middle were really good, then the bad beginning would be overlooked, but the middle isn't good enough for that.

As I listen to it right now, I note many good things, but it just isn't a great song.

(But compared to some Green songs, it's genius.)

It's cool how it starts and ends the exact same way, just from loud to quiet.

If it were catchier, I would probably love it.

The fact that this song doesn't have a catchy chorus always made it one of my favorites.

The start is actually really good, especially that little chord pattern right before the singing starts. Eheee.

I do think the middle is great, i mean cmon? Weepel? YOU KCANNOT RESIST THE POWER OF WEEPEl

*hums to himself* buildings not going as he planned... foreman has injured his hand... dozer will not clear a path.. driver says he learned his maath!!!

well I think we can agree that weezer's first album I call it the blue one was the best album they have ever made... my names is Jonas is a pretty sweet song its easy to learn I don’t think that when they wrote this song they weren’t trying to say anything they just had fun with it and rivers doesn’t get stoned...

Maybe the lyrics don't always make sense to everyone but who cares? It's Weezer and they are great.

i personally love this song. i find myself singing it in the shower on the most random occasions but regardless, a song doesnt have to make sense to everyone, but with a little hlep from mr.cuomo himself i can totally see what he means by the song and it really isnt that hard to get.
