My Pet Sally​​blink-182

Songwriter: Scott Raynor Tom DeLonge Mark Hoppus

Producer: Pat Secor

[Verse 1]
I'm going to want to see myself with someone too
Friends I don't pay are friends I never knew
So I took the chance and got some help from a few
A long and skinny friend to talk to

[Chorus 1]
Because I have the time and the liberty
To play with my new pet Sally
Please don't go away, Sally please

[Verse 2]
No more lonely showers and uneaten foods
My salamander has hygiene too
And he thinks of me the way I think of you
The only next step: for him to say I do

[Chorus 2]
'Cause I have the time and the liberty
To play with my new pet Sally
I love you

[Outro]
Sally please don't go away
I won't be living in yesterday
The lonely nights
Getting beat up by gays in bar fights

​​blink-182

blink-182 set off the 1990s storm of pop-punk, blazing a trail in the genre with electrifying riffs and memorable lines—“Fuck a Dog,” anyone? The band has seen some lineup changes over the years, but its core trio (Tom DeLonge, Mark Hoppus, and Travis Barker) has mostly stood the test of time. As of 2015, DeLonge left the band to pursue other projects.

Founded in 1992 in Poway, California (a suburb in San Diego), DeLonge, Hoppus, and former drummer Scott Raynor formed the band in Raynor’s bedroom, writing songs for their demos, and playing practical jokes along the way. Initially, under the name Blink, the trio was forced to change the name to avoid a lawsuit with the Irish pop-rock group of the same name, so they added “182” at random (fans continue to speculate what “182” means to this day).

After releasing their demo album Buddha, blink-182 released Cheshire Cat in 1995 under Cargo Records. While not a major success at the time, the album generated buzz from the Southern California punk scene and major labels alike. After being signed to MCA Records, the band released Dude Ranch in 1997 with the hit singles “Dammit” and “Josie”.
