Mike Kalinsky Lyrics
mike kalinsky had asthma
he was often absent from school
but he still performed well on tests & quizzes
so all the other kids felt like fools
mike kalinsky had asthma
spinning bottles never pointed his way
you see, he had difficulty breathing
so he couldn't participate in sports
and all the jocks said he was gay
there is no cure for asthma
but does anyone even care?
mike kalinsky spent high school alone in his bedroom listening to joy division and the misfits
and going nowhere
and years passed
i forgot all about him
and then one night, i was hanging out at a local rock club
checking out a band a friend of mine said i really shouldn't miss
and there he was, singing
a song that went a little something like this:
'i couldn't even blow out a simple match'
he was often absent from school
but he still performed well on tests & quizzes
so all the other kids felt like fools
spinning bottles never pointed his way
you see, he had difficulty breathing
so he couldn't participate in sports
and all the jocks said he was gay
but does anyone even care?

i absolutely love this song. i can never find the cd anywhere though
the song's taken off the beautiful ep if you were wondering. great track, classic clem snide
from the first time i heard this, i knew this was their best song, hands down. and i can't even explain why. i like how he crams all the words into the 'mike kalinsky spent high school alone in his bedroom listening to joy division and the misfits' line.
I bought the beatiful ep a few days ago and it was the first of clem snide I'd ever heard. The first two songs were so so, but when this one started I was amazed and I have been listening to this song over and over again for the past two days. I am addicted.
