[Verse 1: Tom DeLonge]
Please mom, you ground me all the time
I know that I was right, all along
And I'm hoping, remember, I'm a kid
I know not what I did, just having fun

[Pre-Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
You couldn't wait for something new
And yesterday, I thought of you
It left me to think as if I couldn't walk away
It's too late, I fell through

[Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
Nothing to lose, a boy who
Went out when he finished all his chores
Nothing to do, they can't trust me
Because I blew it once before

[Verse 2: Tom DeLonge]
Shit dad, please don't kick my ass
I know I've seen you trashed at least one time
Can I blame it on one of my dumb friends?
It's been awhile since I have used that line

[Pre-Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
You couldn't wait for something new
And yesterday, I thought of you
It left me to think as if I couldn't walk away
It's too late, I fell through

[Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
Nothing to lose, a boy who
Went out when he finished all his chores
Nothing to do, they can't trust me
Because I blew it once before, alright!

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
Nothing to lose, a boy who
Went out when he finished all his chores
Nothing to do, they can't trust me
Because I blew it once before

​​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”.
