Lyrics
[Intro] One! Two! One...Two...Three...Four!
[Verse 1] We used to sleep on dirty floors
Now we sleep on dirty floors with bad backs
And every venue smells the same
Like stale beer, bad tattoos, and panic attacks
Tom quit music, sells insurance
Mike moved out to Santa Fe
Everyone standing behind me changed
Well... except for you, Johnny anyway
[Horn Break] Hey Johnny!
....thanks Johnny...
[Verse 2] We had a van held up with hope
And a check engine light from 2003 Now the van is gone forever
Somehow Johnny's workin' for free
We're playing songs for 40 people
Half are friends and half are drunk
One guy only came because
He thought this was a tribute to ska punk [Pre-Chorus] And every year we say
“This is probably it!”
Then somebody books another show
And we go “...well, okay, fine.”
[Chorus] We’re still in a band!
Somebody call our moms!
Tell ‘em we finally almost made it!
...almost....
We’re still in a band!
Despite financial evidence!
And several emotional statements!
...I'm not crying, you're crying....
Everybody moved on
Got careers and healthy habits
But we still yell in rented rooms
Like caffeinated attic rats!
[Spoken Word Breakdown] “Dude... didn’t you guys break up?”
“No, technically we just stopped answering emails for 8 months.”
“And who’s this?”
“Oh, that’s Johnny.”
“Wasn’t Johnny always here?”
“Johnny? Johnny's transcended time.”
[Final Chorus] We’re still in a band!
Somebody call our moms!
Tell ‘em we finally almost made it!
...almost...
We’re still in a band!
Despite financial evidence!
And several emotional statements!
...I'm not crying, you're crying...
Everybody moved on
Got careers and healthy habits
But we still yell in rented rooms
Like caffeinated attic rats!
[Horn Break] [Spoken Word Outro] Hey Johnny!
I don't think I've told you...
...or maybe I have...
I don't remember...
...thanks Johnny
Thank you thank
YOU!!!!!
We totally couldn't have done this without you.
I'm serious man...
...we're gonna need a ride home after the show...
thanks.
Thanks man.
really. [End]
