You and I should get away for awhile
I just want to be alone with your smile
Buy some candy and cigarettes and we'll get in my car
We'll blast the stereo and we'll drive to Madagascar
Because when I'm with you there's nothing I wouldn't do
I just want to be your only one
I'm grasping out at straws thinking back to what I saw
That night on the floor when we were all alone
My love life was getting so bland
There are only so many ways I can make love with my hand
Sometimes it makes me want to laugh
Sometimes I want to take my toaster in the bath
Because when I'm with you there's nothing I wouldn't do
I just want to be your only one
I'm grasping out at straws thinking back to what I saw
That night on the floor when we were all alone
Who's gonna be the odd man out?
I don't want to be the odd man out
Is this going to be the end
Or are you going to be my new girlfriend?
I just want to be alone with your smile
Buy some candy and cigarettes and we'll get in my car
We'll blast the stereo and we'll drive to Madagascar
I just want to be your only one
I'm grasping out at straws thinking back to what I saw
That night on the floor when we were all alone
There are only so many ways I can make love with my hand
Sometimes it makes me want to laugh
Sometimes I want to take my toaster in the bath
I just want to be your only one
I'm grasping out at straws thinking back to what I saw
That night on the floor when we were all alone
I don't want to be the odd man out
Is this going to be the end
Or are you going to be my new girlfriend?

the song is called M+M's cuz mark had an old girlfriend named michelle. (mark+michelle) This is my favorite blink song EVER. The song is pretty much about a guy who finds a girl that makes him happy. All he wants to do is spend time with her and be around her as much as possible. But unfortunately for him, this girl doesn't like him as much he likes her. He doesn't want to be the "odd man out", meaning, he wants to be her main man amongst all of the other guys that want her. Its a really great song. Now more than ever I identify with these lyrics. I wish blink had made more albums like their first 3, all of these "high-school themes" seem to have much more impact on my life because they describe my life exactly.
One of the greatest blink songs of all time.
agreed! one of blinks finest works! i hink its bout a guy whos in love with a girl but theres also another guy who might end up fucking it up for him. both the guys want her for themselves and "dont want to be the odd man out"
Hmm... No one's going to mention that lines 7-10 are about masturbation? Read between the lines, folks!
Lines 11-12, "Sometimes it makes me want to laugh / Sometimes I want to take my toaster in the bath," are about the narrator's attitude toward his own situation (loneliness, yearning for this girl). Sometimes he has a good sense of humor about it, with maybe a bit of self-pity. But other times, he has mood swings and feels suicidal.
The rest is basically a love song. He wants to take her on a date and not be left alone.
I agree, this is the best songs of all time. It seriously makes me want to cry when i hear it cuz it reminds of the frustrating times i've had in my life w/ girls...its a song about a guy who is just so in love w/ this girl he just wants to be w/ her doing no matter what....
llamas4sale...i thought their songs were poser songs...every other fucking post but this one! fuck you suck
