The Offspring - I Choose lyrics
[The Offspring - I Choose lyrics]
Look at me, I'm fallin' off of a cliff now
I can still hear my mama yelling
"No! No! No!" but the words mean nothin'
Can't catch up to me now
The view is so beautiful all the way down
When I was a little boy
Suckin' juice from a bottle
Believing my perceptions were oh so real
But I didn't know nothin', still
Knowing nothin'
Was just enough for me to know the way I feel
This is life what a fucked-up thing we do
What a nightmare come true
Or a playground, if we choose and I choose
Look at me
I'm swollen like a banana fish now
I'm never gonna make it
Make it out of my hole
But I keep on laughin', doesn't really matter
There's dozens of reasons for
Explaining my soul when I was a teenager
Suckin' booze with the Vatos
Discussing who was gonna live
To be twenty-one
They said they wouldn't make it
They didn't make it
We're all naked when the day is said and done
This is life what a fucked-up thing we do
What a nightmare come true
Or a playground, if we choose and I choose
Don't know who made this all come true
Now, while you're here, just gotta do
What you gotta do one, two, three, four!
Ooh woah ooh woah ooh woah ooh
Now, if I wasn't such a weenie
Do you think you'd still love me?
Pretending I'm an airplane on
The living room floor
Like a lovely generator
You stand right by me
And if words were wisdom
I'd be talkin' even more
So I keep on fallin' as
I'm lookin' back above me
Watching as my mama just becomes a little dot
(Dot) now I'm, I'm like DeNiro, I'm Amarillo
And I'll never know when I hit the ground
This is life what a fucked-up thing we do
What a nightmare come true
Or a playground, if we choose said choose
Said choose and I choose
I can still hear my mama yelling
"No! No! No!" but the words mean nothin'
Can't catch up to me now
The view is so beautiful all the way down
When I was a little boy
Suckin' juice from a bottle
Believing my perceptions were oh so real
But I didn't know nothin', still
Knowing nothin'
Was just enough for me to know the way I feel
This is life what a fucked-up thing we do
What a nightmare come true
Or a playground, if we choose and I choose
Look at me
I'm swollen like a banana fish now
I'm never gonna make it
Make it out of my hole
But I keep on laughin', doesn't really matter
There's dozens of reasons for
Explaining my soul when I was a teenager
Suckin' booze with the Vatos
Discussing who was gonna live
To be twenty-one
They said they wouldn't make it
They didn't make it
We're all naked when the day is said and done
This is life what a fucked-up thing we do
What a nightmare come true
Or a playground, if we choose and I choose
Don't know who made this all come true
Now, while you're here, just gotta do
What you gotta do one, two, three, four!
Ooh woah ooh woah ooh woah ooh
Now, if I wasn't such a weenie

(Dot) now I'm, I'm like DeNiro, I'm Amarillo
And I'll never know when I hit the ground
This is life what a fucked-up thing we do
What a nightmare come true
Or a playground, if we choose said choose
Said choose and I choose
