Something To Laugh At

Remember that time
i came along
wrote you that rhyme
from the heart



well girl
look at you now
ballin your eyes out
and fallin apart



you fell for some guy
who promised you it all
instead sittin down
eatin ice cream
thinkin your nothin but small



cryin, "why me"
lookin for someone to care
well all i gotta say is
girl, i'm keepin 
that gum out of my hair



stop lookin
for someone to listen
to you whine and complain
when they told you
all along



but you knew better
go buy 
some tissue
and listen
to some slow sad songs



i'm done
through
and finished
with gettin my shoulder
wet from your tears



so do
what us guys do
call up a friend
drive to the store
and buy yourself some beers
