The Goo Goo dolls are quite possibly my favorite band ever. Dizzy up the girl is the greatest cd in my mind, the greatest cd period. You've got Iris, slide, Black Balloon, Broadway, and so much more. Then again, I'm addicted to the 90's.

When I was young I knew everything,
And she, a punk who rarely ever took advice
Now I'm guilt-stricken, sobbin' with my head on the floor
Stopped a baby's breath and a shoe full of rice, no...


Can't be held responsible
She was touchin' her face
I won't be held responsible
She fell in love in the first place


For the life of me
I can not remember
What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
For the life of me
I can not believe we'd ever die
For these sins
We were merely freshmen

My best friend took a week's vacation to forget her
His girl took a week's worth of valium and slept
And now he's guilt-stricken, sobbin'
With his head on the floor
Thinks about her now and how he never really wept he said


We tried to wash our hands of all of this
We'd never talk of our lacking relationships
And how we're guilt-stricken sobbin' with our heads on the floor
We fell through the ice when we tried not to slip we'd say...

We were merely freshmen
We were only freshmen

The Freshman by The Verve pipe. Bittersweet symphony rocks as well.
