[Verse 1: Tom DeLonge]
I think of awhile ago
We might have had it all
I was so stupid then
You needed time to grow
But now just as things change
As well my feelings do
In time things rearrange
I am so sick of chasing you
[Pre-Chorus: Tom]
But what do I get cause I just seem to lose
You make me regret those times I spent with you
And playing those games as I wait for your call
And now I give up, so goodbye and so long
[Chorus: Tom]
It's not a change of pace
This time I'll get it right
It's not a change of taste
I was the one there last night
[Verse 2: Tom]
You have your other friends
They were there when you cried
Didn't mean to hurt you then
Best friends just won't leave your side
[Pre-Chorus: Tom]
But what do I get cause I just seem to lose
You make me regret those times I spent with you
And playing those games as I wait for your call
Now I give up, so goodbye and so long
[Chorus: Tom]
It's not a change of pace
This time I'll get it right
It's not a change of taste
I was the one there last night
[Bridge: Tom]
When I needed you most
When I needed a friend
You let me down now
Like I let you down then
So sorry, it's over
[Outro]
[Skit: Mark Hoppus]
[Multiple women screaming]
What? It'll clear up, I promise. I got some ointment for it; the doctor says it's not infectious, it'll be gone in a week
[Women sigh in relief]
