[Verse 1]
I hung your picture on the wall
And that's all it is
I break my fingers to make a call
And that's all it is
I know you're living way out west
But I don't think that I confessed
Everything I feel

[Verse 2]
You say you got no faith in things that you can't see
Well, I'm sorry I ain't there with you, but you ain't here with me
And I'm down in all my fears
But I ain't cryin' no tears over you

[Chorus]
'Cause everything's wrong
Well, it's alright
Everything's wrong
Well, it's alright

[Verse 3]
You said that this is crazy, you're half a world away
Well, I'm sitting here and thinking, but I didn't know what to say
So I said something I can't touch, I always want way too much anyways

[Chorus]
'Cause everything's wrong
Well, it's alright
Everything's wrong
Well, it's alright

[Instrumental]

[Verse 4]
I hung your picture on the wall
But that's all it is
I break my fingers to make a call
And that's all it is
I know you're living way out west
Don't get me wrong, I'm not impressed
With you no more

The Goo Goo Dolls

The Goo Goo Dolls are an American rock band formed in 1986 in Buffalo, NY, during one of Buffalo’s most prolific underground music phases. The band was formed by John Rzeznik (Also known as Johnny Rzeznik), lead singer and songwriter for the band, with bassist/vocalist Robby Takac, and drummer George Tutuska. Mike Malinin later replaced Tutuska as the band’s drummer.

The band has released twelve studio albums between 1986 and 2017, but they are best known for platinum-selling A Boy Named Goo (1995) and Dizzy Up the Girl (1998). These mid- to late 1990s albums contain the Goo Goo Dolls' biggest hits to date – Name and Iris most notably, but also Slide, Black Balloon, and Dizzy

These hits made the Goo Goo Dolls a household name for radio-friendly “prom night power balladry” (as one Rolling Stone review put it), but the band’s early output was often far rougher musically, melding the band’s edgier punk influences with an often soft sensibility in the mold of the band’s early heroes, The Replacements. One can hear these influences on many songs on A Boy Named Goo though these affinities would fade after Dizzy Up the Girl.
