about

Arguably the song that had the most success for us. It garnered a little bit of radio play and we literally didn't play a show without playing this song after we wrote it. Our former drummer Bobby wrote the main horn riff because he didn't like what the horns had to offer. I think he did a good job.

True story: this song was inspired by a true story. Josh met a girl in an AOL chat room (yeah, we're kind of old now) and they hit it off over AIM. Basically, she Catfished him and we didn't have a term for it then. I was having Josh recall the story for a friend and he told us to write a song about it. It took us about 5 minutes to write the bulk of the song and it went on to be a hit. A nice simple ska song with a pop punk and reggae chorus.

lyrics

ASL you dont know me, but do you wanna chat said do you wanna chat with me
Well I cant find no one else so looks like your stuck, said looks like your stuck with me

do you have a picture,
can i see it before we talk tonight
soon as i saw it
i knew that you were my type

shes so fine cant wait to meet her
as pretty as a flower, can i take your petals off

called me up and we made a date,
I'll meet you at the show, meet you at the show at 8
she said i would spot her in a crowd cuz shes
wearing yellow sock, wearing yellow sock with lace
but when i got there, i knew that something wasnt right
cuz soon as i saw her, i wanted to run away

she was so fine until i met her
as pretty as a flower, with the petals ripped off

called me 80 times the next day
asked me where i was
went to the store, my school, and synagogue
i swear there she was
followed me to the bathroom
pulled up her skirt and said
"if you wont clean my pipe then
at least let me polish your head"
shit brown eyes, skin just like an elephant
hair like a wooly mammoth
on the shoulders of a body with a stick figure
shall i proceed? She got a tiny forehead with a big as jaw
you could spot the broad way from jamaica
everywhere i go i see her face
pulled out my knife told that bitch to get away

she was so fine until i met her
as pretty as a flower, with the petals ripped off
