that old good boy mitch just wanted

to tell some jokes

well now im just trying

to play some notes

do you know what i say

do you know what i mean?

have you heard through these words

just how im seen

theres a reason that i work

so hard at this stuff

when all i want to do

is take it easy

its not a ticket

for you to pick at

other people

who dont know whats up

like youre so sure you do

you kind of make me want to

shut your mouth just to keep out

all of those unfriendly feelings

just because youve got

a lot of wax

and all those first editions

i want you to know

sticks and stones may

break my bones

but words will never hurt me

all i need to know

i knew so early

its so lame that

you could take my feelings

and make yourself feel

like youre better than

anyone else who hasnt heard

listen in between your notes

theres something been going on

while you were busy taking notes

and look in between your moments

theres something good happening

its good to sometimes

slow it down

whats the point in pouring it all out

when you guys just wear it on your coat?

i believe that for this piece of time

we can really crank us up a lot

get your head out from those mags

and websites who try to

shape your style

take a risk just for yourself

and wade into the deep end of the ocean
