2113 Lyrics
Had to kiss you one more time
So I followed you home
And I almost lost you at the light
I've seen you a couple of times
But I had no idea that you would be mine tonight
I was to meet another girl, but she didn't show
And you asked if I was alone, oh
The night came to an end
Had to kiss you one more time
So I followed you home, oh
I'm just a boy
I'm on the side
Yeah, believe me I don't mind
I'm just a boy
Not quite your type
But that don't matter much tonight
Yeah, you asked if you could call
But you didn't write it down
So I thought that we were through
And when you said "Hello"
I could not believe that I got a call from you
It's like candy in a bag
You can put it on a shelf
It's there when you need a taste, oh
Sweetness makes you weak
Don't eat it every day
Just don't let it go to waste, yeah
I'm just a boy
I'm on the side
Yeah, believe me I don't mind
I'm just a boy
Not quite your type
But that don't matter much tonight
I'm not sure where I stand
Call me when your lonely
And I'll take you out again
I hear you got another guy
I guess he makes you happy
Call me a "special friend"
I'm just a boy
I'm on the side
Yeah, beleive me I don't mind
I'm just a boy
Not quite your type
I'm just a boy
Not quite your type
But that don't matter much tonight
Tonight, tonight
So I followed you home
And I almost lost you at the light
I've seen you a couple of times
But I had no idea that you would be mine tonight
And you asked if I was alone, oh
The night came to an end
Had to kiss you one more time
So I followed you home, oh
I'm on the side
Yeah, believe me I don't mind
I'm just a boy
Not quite your type
But that don't matter much tonight
But you didn't write it down
So I thought that we were through
And when you said "Hello"
I could not believe that I got a call from you
You can put it on a shelf
It's there when you need a taste, oh
Sweetness makes you weak
Don't eat it every day
Just don't let it go to waste, yeah
I'm on the side
Yeah, believe me I don't mind
I'm just a boy
Not quite your type
But that don't matter much tonight
Call me when your lonely
And I'll take you out again
I hear you got another guy
I guess he makes you happy
Call me a "special friend"
I'm on the side
Yeah, beleive me I don't mind
I'm just a boy
Not quite your type
Not quite your type
But that don't matter much tonight
Tonight, tonight

Oh, love this song. They should definatly make an acoustic version of this.
This has got to be up there with the best ever BFS songs. Does anyone know why it is called 2113?
Good question, confused it with Coheed & Cambria's 2113 for a moment there... Possibly a respectful nod?

Ah! I saw that this was called 2113 like... 5 seconds ago. and thought... "Theres no way they could have possibly done a cover of a COCA song." Phew! Good thing they didn't. They wouldn't do it justice.
maybe a reference to the rush album 2112
re skater-mat, yeah rush was what came to my mind and was the reason I downloaded the song (legally! - We7 is another awesome website /sales pitch). Can't hear anything in the music/see anything in the lyrics though that seem to suggest it was referenced though.
