Portland, OR Lyrics
At first I thought a girl like you
Shouldn't be seen with a miserable man like me
But it seems that once you've opened your mouth
Horrible things fall out
I guess I'd spoken too soon
I guess I'd spoken too soon
Cause a man like me
Didn't actually essentially endure the whole fucking country
To sit here and let you insult the way
I interact openly with my best friends
It's true I don't know how they talk down in Tucson
But you know I bet my bottom dollar that the people here in Oregon
Know a thing or two about respect
I guess I'd spoken too soon
Shouldn't be seen with a miserable man like me
But it seems that once you've opened your mouth
Horrible things fall out
I guess I'd spoken too soon
Didn't actually essentially endure the whole fucking country
To sit here and let you insult the way
I interact openly with my best friends
But you know I bet my bottom dollar that the people here in Oregon
Know a thing or two about respect

According to Evan the band was on tour in Portland when they met a girl and invited her for a drink at a bar. This girl was from Tuscon. At some point she took offence and called the guys 'fucking jocks'.
