I lied and told her I loved her, She didn't care, but anyway I told her we'd still be friends, And she didn't care, but anyway I tried last week for to call her, She wasn't home, but anyway I think I'll spend my life alone, I really don't care right now, but anyway It's a state of affairs and a state of emotions The kind of thing that you must understand I tell you one thing; you tell me another We walk away, maybe then shake hands I'm quitting cigarette smoking It's bad for me, but anyway I don't think the TV was joking When it told me this, but anyway The newsman said not to sit on strange toilet seats It's my life he's trying to save, but anyway I found out that I've got eye cancer Too many television waves, but anyway It's a state of affairs and a state of emotions The kind of thing that you must understand I tell you one thing; you tell me another We walk away, maybe then shake hands Some day an answer will find us Quite a long shot, but anyway I think the past, the past is behind us Be real confusing if not, but anyway I put all my hope in tomorrow It's gonna be great, I can tell but anyway I see a new, a new day a-dawning I like to sleep late, oh well, but anyway It's a state of affairs and a state of emotions The kind of thing that you must understand I tell you one thing; you tell me another We walk away, maybe then shake hands © 1990 Blues Traveler Music |

The newsman said not to sit on strange toilet seats At the height of the frenzy about AIDS (in the mid-to-late 80's) it was believed that you could catch AIDS from using the same toilet seat as an infected person. This was later proven not to be true.I found out that I've got eye cancer/Too many television waves John Popper has long credited television with being one of his major inspirations when it comes to writing lyrics. It is impossible to get eye cancer from "television waves" - in fact, watching television is recommended for those recovering from eye surgery because it requires very little eye movement.The past is behind us [...] Maybe then shake hands This image coincidentally shows both of the above lines - one in words, one in action.I like to sleep late John has a penchant for sleeping late - he often sleeps through sound check on days of concerts because he prefers to stay up all night after shows. |
