One Night In '99
Below a pool table I lie
One night in ‘99
Half asleep when that song begins
Have to go find out who it is
From the basement of the house party
I crawl up three flights of stairs like half a zombie
People dancing on my hands, I demand
Tell me the name of that ridiculously awesome band
But no one hears me or gives a ... About a stupid boy at the time unfit to stand on his two legs
And ask politely instead he begs
“Tell me, tell me, tell me!”
A wasted skater, told me their name later
Before this to music I was a hater
I had to go and I had to follow through
I bought their tapes and soon after I got their tattoo
But, by then their voice was dead
Living on in my headphones
With so much left unsaid
I wish I could have thanked him personally
They did so much for me
This goes out to everyone who’s helped us out along our way
THANK YOU
Una noche en el '99
Bajo una mesa de billar yago
Una noche en el '99
Medio dormido cuando esa canción comienza
Tengo que ir a averiguar quién es
Desde el sótano de la fiesta en casa
Arrastro tres tramos de escaleras como medio zombi
La gente bailando sobre mis manos, exijo
Dime el nombre de esa banda ridículamente increíble
Pero nadie me escucha o le importa un ... Sobre un chico estúpido en ese momento incapaz de mantenerse en pie
Y pregunta educadamente en lugar de rogar
