[Verse 1 - Tom DeLonge]
I don't want to urinate on myself
I don't want to urinate on anyone else
Well, I guess that really doesn't matter anymore
Because I can't control my bladder anymore

[Chorus - Tom DeLonge, Mark Hoppus]
Well, I guess it all depends
Undergarments
Well, I guess it all depends
Undergarments

[Bridge - Tom DeLonge]
Step back in the light
No more soiled nights alone
But I guess I don't have a care
Because there's not a load in my underwear

[Verse 2 - Mark Hoppus]
I'm sick of offending everyone I meet (go, go, go, go)
I'm sick of crying myself to sleep on rubber sheets (go)
I had an accident today
I left a soil on a bus seat, I didn't know what to say

[Chorus - Mark Hoppus]
But I guess it all depends (undergarments)
Well, I guess it all depends (undergarments)

[Bridge - Mark Hoppus]
Step back in the light (go, go)
No more soiled nights alone
Well I guess that I don't have a care if I
Don't have a load in my underwear

​​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”.
