And one more because I need to

Here are the lyrics to That Was Me:

THAT WAS ME

REMEMBER THE TIME WHEN YOU OPENED YOUR MAILBOX AND YOU FOUND A NOTE MEANT TO SAY: HI DENISE AND YOU SCREAMED ‘TIL YOU BAWLED, YOU FREAKED OUT, THEN YOU CALLED THE POLICE

EACH LETTER WAS CUT OUT AND PASTED TOGETHER BUT THERE IS A CHANCE THAT SOME GLUE DIDN’T DRY WHEN YOU HAPPENED TO COUGH A FEW LETTERS FELL OFF AND SPELLED: D I E

WHAT IF WHO SENT IT JUST HAD A CRUSH? THE WORST HE COULD DO WOULD BE MAKING YOU BLUSH? INSTEAD OF PARANOID AND READY IN A HEARTBEAT TO FLEE AND ALWAYS WONDERING WHO THAT MADMAN COULD BE

THAT WAS ME THAT WAS ME I’M SO EMBARRASSED NOW BUT THAT WAS ME.

REMEMBER THE TIME YOU WERE WALKING YOUR BULLDOG A COUPLE OF BEST FRIENDS OUT HITTING THE TOWN THERE YOU HAPPENED TO SPY RED BALLOONS YOU COULD BUY FROM A CLOWN

THEN SUDDENLY POP AND YOUR DOG TOOK OFF SPRINTING AND NO ONE COULD CATCH HIM AS HARD AS THEY TRIED HE RAN FAST, HE RAN FAR HE RAN INTO THAT CAR AND HE... DIED. -- REMEMBER?

WHAT IF SOME GUY WORE A CERTAIN DISGUISE WHO LEARNED RED BALLOONS WERE YOUR FAVORITE SURPRISE BUT DIDN’T KNOW DOGS GET STRESS OR SHOW ANXIETY OR DOUBT AND IF YOU’RE WONDERING ‘BOUT THAT CLOWN, I’M SURE BY NOW YOU’VE FIGURED OUT

THAT WAS ME THAT WAS ME WITH MORE MAKEUP ON BUT THAT WAS ME

TRYING SO HARD TO SHOW YOU WHAT I NEVER COULD SAY OR CONVEY IN WORDS DON’T KNOW WHY I’M SO SHY WHEN I SEE YOUR EYES

THAT SPARKLE SO CLEAR WHICH REMINDS ME OF THE REASON WHY I’M HERE

REMEMBER THE PARTY YOU THREW FOR YOUR BIRTHDAY A FEW OF YOUR FRIENDS HAD ME COME TAG ALONG BUT I JUST STOOD AT YOUR DOOR SO THAT NOTHING COULD GO HORRIBLY WRONG

OF COURSE I REMEMBERED TO GET YOU A PRESENT AND AFTER THE FIREWORKS HAD FINALLY ARRIVED WELL LONG STORY SHORT, WHAT’S IMPORTANT IS YOUR FRIENDS ALL SURVIVED

I HEAR THAT YOUR BURNS AND YOUR SCARS WILL ALL HEAL THE DOCTORS ARE TEN PERCENT SURE YOU WILL FEEL I GUESS NOW’S AS GOOD AS A TIME TO REVEAL THIS THING I’VE YET TO SAY

I LIKE YOU I REALLY LIKE YOU AND YOU MIGHT LIKE ME, TOO

I KNOW I’VE CAUSED YOU SOME GRIEF, WE BOTH STRONGLY AGREE INSTEAD OF TURNING A LEAF, I’M UPROOTING THE TREE MY TRANSITION WILL BE BRIEF, AND THEN SOON YOU WILL SEE THAT WAS ME

I’M SORRY ‘BOUT THE NOTE, AND I’M SORRY ‘BOUT YOUR DOG AND I’M SORRY FOR THE FIRE AND YOUR JAIL-TIME IN PRAGUE WHICH I FORGOT TO MENTION... WELL, NEVER MIND! THAT WAS ME!

THAT WAS ME! THAT WAS ME!

WHOOPS... HERE’S YOUR I-V!
