All My Friends Are in Bar Bands Lyrics by The Wonder Years

The Upsides/Suburbia 10 Year Anniversary Box Set

2010

[Verse 1:]
Jack says he loves the winter here
'Cause these are days when everyone's as miserable as him
Josh says it smells like cheap beer and loathing here
It could be the van, but it's probably just his breath
Max dropped out of college
But he likes to say he finished
He's working back home with his dad
He and Kevin got matching tattoos of their initials
And three X's down their legs
Well I've got like-minded dudes in Detroit or Vancouver
Newport, Boca, and Brum
I don't know where I am
But I know where I came from
[Chorus:]
So everyone moved in with their girlfriends
(In one-bedroom apartments)
In the town that we grew up in and
All my friends are in bar bands
I don't know how it happened
I hope it pays the rent
And still there's some days
When I don't think that we'll ever see Dave again
[Verse 2:]
Justin's working three jobs just to stay ahead
Spiro lied about his major
But it's working out for him
Nick and Richie got a place together by the train station
I've spent twenty-two years just wading through bullshit and hey
It's worked so far
I don't know why I'm here
But I know who my friends are
[Chorus:]
So everyone moved in with their girlfriends
(In one-bedroom apartments)
In the town that we grew up in and
All my friends are in bar bands
I don't know how it happened
I hope it pays the rent
And still there's some days
When I don't think that we'll ever see Dave again
[Matty Arsenault of A Loss For Words:]
I'm not sad anymore
I'm just tired of this place
And if this year would just end
I think we'd all be okay
[Dave Mackinder of Fireworks:]
I'm not sad anymore
I'm just tired of this place
And if this year would just end
I think we'd all be okay
(We moved on again, We're not wasting away)
[Shane Henderson of Valencia:]
I'm not sad anymore
I'm just tired of this place
And if this year would just end
I think we'd all be okay
(We moved on again, We're not wasting away)
[Jamie Rhoden of Title Fight:]
I'm not sad anymore
I'm just tired of this place
And if this year would just end
I think we'd all be okay
(We moved on again, We're not wasting away)
[Nik Bruzzese of Man Overboard:]
I'm not sad anymore
I'm just tired of this place
And if this year would just end
I think we'd all be okay
[Dan Campbell of The Wonder Years:]
I'm not sad anymore
I'm just tired of this place
And if this year would just end
I think we'd all be okay
