MxPx - Middlename (Between This World and the Next)

Details

Description

I thought I was pretty clever when I came up with that first line.

And, although maybe it wasn’t as clever as I thought it was, that’s what people always got hooked on. That and the opening guitar chunking. Sing it with with me - Emotion!!!!!!!!

This was always a staple in our sets once we released it on Life in General.
It’s one of those songs that we’ll always play from time to time. I love this song!!

Lyrics:
Emotion, is my middle name
I lay in bed and listen to the rain
Put happy thoughts in to my head
But I find instead the hurting words you said

Why won't you believe me
When I tell you the things that I see?
And I'll still see you tomorrow,
At the show

It's been a long winded, long time
I wish I'd never met you
I wish I could forget you
And what you said

You're directing your complaints to me
I should walk away, I could easily
Never hear a word you say

I'm not your robot or your slave
I won't behave, I'm not your toy
Go on go bury me with self-righteousness
I confess, I'm just a boy

Why won't you believe me
When I tell you the things that I see?
And I'll still see you tomorrow,
At the show

It's been a long winded, long time
I wish I'd never met you
I wish I could forget you
And what you said

You're directing your complaints to me
I should walk away, I could easily
Never hear a word you say

Why won't you believe me
When I tell you the things that I see?
And I'll still see you tomorrow,
At the show
