Well I was walking in the main land city
And I was feeling so alone
I was looking for someone or thing to remind me of my home
What I wouldn't give to have somebody nod or wink at me
Cause that's the way we say hello in my home down by the sea
We never say "hello" or "how's it going?", "good day" or any of that
We just look at them and nod our heads and wink say 'Whadd'ya At?'
Whadd'ya At? How's she going buddy, Whadd'ya At today?
Whadd'ya At? How's she going buddy, Whadd'ya At today?
But then I walked into a shopping mall and much to my surprise
An old friend from my hometown was a sight for my sore eyes
And of all the people I met down in the city or in the mall
I think I like my hometown friend the best one of them all
Because he didn't say "hello" or "hows it going today?" or any of that
My old friend he just looked at me and smiled said "Whadd'ya At?"
Let this be a lesson to all our people who go away
Remember if you meet someone the special words we say
We don't ever say "hello" or "how's it going?", "good day"
Or any of that.

Same old song and dance, I gave you another chance.
Drama every night. I don't wanna fight .
Same old story again: you wanna be my friend . It's really gotta end.
Same old story ! CHORUS
You told me you were done with her and I believed every word...
and now I wonder what I heard... ooooh !
You told me you were done with her and I believed every word...
and now I wonder what I heard... ooooh !
The drama won't stop, he says he called the cops ...
police don't care 'cause he's crazy.
You keep calling me. It's a total bore, I've heard it all before, cat got out, he came running back for more.
(Chorus) x1
I told you I'd be cool , now I feel like a fool.
I got sucked into your crazy, but it won't phase me.
It's a total bore, I've heard it all before, the cat got out,
she came running back for more.
(Chorus) x 2

Forgive me, Hera, I cannot stay.
He cut out my tongue,
there is nothing to say.
Love me, oh Lord,
he threw me away.
He laughed at my sins,
in his arms I must stay.
He wrote,
I am broke,
please send for me.
But I am broken too,
and spoken for,
do not tempt me.
Her skin is white,
and I'm light as the sun,
so holy light shines on the things you have done.
So I asked him how he became this man,
how did he learn to hold fruit in his hands,
and where is the lamb that gave you your name,
he had to leave though I begged him to stay
Left me alone when I needed the light,
fell to my knees and I wept for my life.
If he had of stayed you might understand,
If he had of stayed you never would have taken my hand.
He wrote,
oh love, please send for me,
but I am broken too,
and spoken for,
do not tempt me.
And where is the lamb that gave you your name,
He had to leave though I begged him to stay.
Begged him to stay in my cold wooden grip,
begged him to stay by the light of this ship.
Me fighting him, fighting like fighting dawn,
and the waves came and stole him and took him to war.
He wrote,
I'm broke,
please send for me.
But I'm broken too,
and spoken for,
do not tempt me.
Forgive me here, I cannot stay,
cut out my tongue,
there is nothing to save.
Love me, oh Lord, he threw me away,
he laughed at my sins,
in his arms I must say.
We write,
that's alright,
I miss his smell.
We speak when spoken to,
and that suits us well
That suits us well.

Caught staring again
Like a deer in the headlights
When I can't move fast enough
I take a hit for the team
Pretty girl is blushing
I can't tell if she's disgusted
Laughter starts to swell
Like someone gets the joke
Bell rings
I make my escape
It helps a little
But doesn't save
Beat down's a common thing
It happens every day
Maybe I'm just strange
Cause I don't change schools
Maybe I like the abuse
Or maybe I'm just like you
Another confrontation
You've got something to prove
Your girl can't tell how tough you are
When you beat me up in the boy's room
I made a big mistake
But I can't help who I like
This may not cost my life
But I am branded forever lame
This was not my decision
You were born with good looks
And a solid right hook
Whining makes no difference
You bruised my eye
It doesn't hurt at all
One day I'll rise above
And you will take a fall
I may be beat today
But I will survive
I'll get up off the ground
Stand tall and fight
My eyes don't hurt at all
I would rather die
Than be your whipping boy
School year's almost over
Summer is one day closer
As God is my witness
