Drummer Lyrics
At 14, I lost my dad. It's true.
At 15, I didn't know what to do.
Well, at 16, I learned to drive.
At 17, to stay alive.
And I was a drummer in a band you've heard of.
Isn't that the way it goes?
18, I think that's when we met.
19, I wish I could forget.
Well 20, I moved away.
To say the least, I didn't stay.
And I was a drummer in a band that you've heard of.
And I was a drummer in a band that you've heard of.
Isn't that the way it goes?
If I know you, you'll change your mind.
You've been changing all the time.
And I was a drummer in a band that you've heard of.
And I was a drummer in a band that you've heard of.
And I was a drummer in a band that you've heard of.
And I was a drummer in a band that just broke up.
Isn't that the way it-
Isn't that the way it-
Isn't that the way it goes?
At 15, I didn't know what to do.
Well, at 16, I learned to drive.
At 17, to stay alive.
Isn't that the way it goes?
19, I wish I could forget.
Well 20, I moved away.
To say the least, I didn't stay.
And I was a drummer in a band that you've heard of.
Isn't that the way it goes?
You've been changing all the time.
And I was a drummer in a band that you've heard of.
And I was a drummer in a band that you've heard of.
And I was a drummer in a band that just broke up.
Isn't that the way it-
Isn't that the way it goes?

Love love love this song. <i>Davy</i> is an amazing album.
Probably an autobiographical song about Jason Schwartzman.
Yea this song's about Jason Schwartzman I bet cause I'm sure of two facts: his dad did die when he was 14, and he formed the band Phantom Planet and used to be their drummer.
"At 17, just stayed alive"
last line: "And I was a drummer in a band that you broke up"
