Ugly Duckling - Oh Yeah lyrics

rate me

Yeah, yeah, yeah (yeah)

[Chorus:]

Oh yeah (yeah, yeah)

Oh yeah (yeah, yeah)

Oh yeah (yeah, yeah)

Oh yeah (yeah, yeah)

Oh yeah (yeah, yeah)

Oh yeah (yeah, yeah)

Oh yeah (yeah, yeah)

Oh yeah (yeah, yeah)

Oh yeah, I need to find a time machine

To go back to '89 and redesign the scene

I'll start with the picture in my junior high yearbook

When I had a bad haircut and a weird look

And why was I such a jerk

With a sharp tongue, I didn't care who would get hurt

And for what, to gain the esteem of friends

That I barely knew and haven't even seen since then

Things things I should have long forgotten

But still they can pop up and haunt your thoughts

Cause Lord knows we've all made mistakes

And laid awake at night to replay the tapes

But that's dead, cut the ties

Here comes the future open your eyes

An opportunity knocks and it's soon to be lost

If you're scared to move it will pass through as you watch

So learn from the past or you're doomed to repeat it

It's a new day, don't assume you're defeated

Join me, let's laugh at the past, that's half of the task

If you agree say oh yeah

[Chorus]

I wish I would have known what I know now then

Was everybody's buddy, had a thousand friends

Used to go out of my way give them places to stay

But now in hindsight they're just wasted days

I've heard the saying keep your enemies close

They gotta be my friends cause they depend on me most

But nope, look who's on the ropes getting okey-doked

Sucker punched, body slammed and grabbed by the throat

That's me at the age of eighteen

In my late teens had to make the break clean

And start over again, was I really their friend

Or did a compensate for being shallow within

Who knows, but what I do know is this (what)

Life is too short soon you won't exist

So make the best of it, start now not later

Oh yeah, Einstein take me out with the fader

Dizzy Dustin, oh yeah

That's right, uh huh

Oh yeah, well oh yeah

We gonna do it like this

If you think for yourself say (yeah, yeah)

And if you diggin this song say (yeah, yeah)

And if it's all about the music (yeah, yeah)

And if you like Pigeon John say (yeah, yeah)

Down under to the Orient (yeah, yeah)

And out to the Middle East say (yeah, yeah)

Yo, all across Europe (yeah, yeah)

And back to Long Beach say (yeah, yeah)

If you love drum breaks (yeah, yeah)

And the hip hop shows (yeah, yeah)

When you're lookin about the future (yeah, yeah)

Man don't say no say (yeah) hey

Uh huh, feels good

Bring it back now, bring it back

Say yeah, keep it rolling now, keep it rolling

UD, Audacity, that's right

One more time, ya know

See you on stage, goodnight
