[Verse 1]
Since you've been gone
Since you've been unglued
It's hard to figure out
Your next move
One minute here
The next you're gone
Let's make an end
To this sad, sad song
For you it's hard to take
Cause the pill has an awful taste
Just open up and swallow down
Once it hits bottom
Things may turn around

[Chorus]
Unfortunately this is the case
You've got to catch up
And win the race
Straighten yourself out
You can do it

[Verse 2]
One minute here
The next you're gone
Let's make an end
To this sad, sad song
They can't understand
That you mean to do good
I guess you could say
You're misunderstood
I know you're meaning well
But you've been shot to hell
Just come back and join us now
'Cause I know that you know how

[Chorus]
Unfortunately this is the case
You've got to catch up
And win the race
Straighten yourself out
You can do it

[Bridge]
I know it seem they're messing with your mind
But you don't have to go
Forward blind
So let the bygones be bygone
And let's make an end
To this sad, sad song

[Chorus]
Unfortunately this is the case
You've got to catch up
And win the race
Straighten yourself out
You can do it

No Doubt

No Doubt formed in Anaheim, California in 1986. They have created a decade-defining style and have arguably become one of the most recognized bands of their time. The band has consisted of vocalist and frontwoman Gwen Stefani, guitarist Tom Dumont, bassist Tony Kanal, and drummer Adrian Young, as well as several former members—including Gwen’s older brother Eric Stefani.

They found mainstream success following the release of their third studio album Tragic Kingdom in late 1995. It eventually landed at the top of the Billboard charts in 1996, and has sold over 8 million copies as of 2012.
