Teenage Bottlerocket Warning Device Lyrics
1.Bottlerocket

Got an empty bottle in my pocket
And things are about to explode
Fire up the fuse & run away
Watch the bottlerocket go

Got an empty bottle in my pocket
And things are about to explode
Fire up the fuse & run away
Watch the bottlerocket go

Bottlerocket
Bottlerocket
Bottlerocket


2.In The Basement

I'm not going down the stairs no more
There's something here living under the floor
I haven't seen it, but I know it's there
Now I'm so scared I wet my underwear

That's why
I don't want to go down down down in the basement
I don't want to go down down down in the basement
Tonight

Late at night when I'm in my bed
I pull the covers up over my head
I hear it creeping up from down below
It's come to take me where I don't want to go

That's right
I don't want to go down down down in the basement
I don't want to go down down down in the basement
I don't want to go down down down in the basement
I don't want to go down down down in the basement
Tonight

I don't want to go down in the basement tonight
I don't want to go down in the basement tonight
I don't want to go down in the basement tonight
I don't want to go down in the basement tonight


3.Gave You My Heart

When we first met I didn't know what to do
So I gave you my heart now it belongs to you

I gave you my heart
I gave you my heart
I gave you my heart so baby please don't tear it apart

And when we hang out you know we have lots of fun
So I gave you my heart 'cause I knew you were the one

I gave you my heart
I gave you my heart
I gave you my heart so baby please don't tear it apart

Yeah it was something that I swore I'd never do
But my whole world turned upside down
When I laid eyes on you
When I laid eyes on you

When I'm with you, don't want to go away
So I gave you my heart & now I'm here to stay

I gave you my heart
I gave you my heart
I gave you my heart so baby please don't tear it apart
I gave you my heart
I gave you my heart
I gave you my heart so baby please don't tear it apart


4.She's Not The One

She's not the one, she's not the one
She's not the one, she's not the one
She's not the one, she's not the one
She's not the one, she's not the one

Fed up with make believe affection
I won't pretend to be in love

She's not the one, she's not the one
She's not the one, she's not the one
She's not the one, she's not the one
She's not the one, she's not the one


5.Pacemaker

It took some time getting over you
And all the shit that you put me through
I'd cut those days in half somehow
If I knew then what I know now
Weeks turned into months alone
I'm better of now that you're gone

When I finally got my head straight
It took forever to do so
Realized that my biggest mistake
Was taking too long to let you go

It took some time getting rid of you
Breaking up was way past due
One more minute with you around
Would have made my brain melt down
You whine you moan you always bitch
The best thing I did for myself was ditch

When I finally got my head straight
It took forever to do so
Realized that my biggest mistake
Was taking too long to let go

Days went by I'm glad I didn't hold my breath
I felt it in my chest
When you were stepping on me
Now you're begging me to take you back
I need that like a heart attack
Like a hole in my brain

It took no time getting used to me
Single life's far from boring
It's never too late to come home
No checking in no telephone
Fed up with all you attitude
Have no regrets for leaving you

When I finally got my head straight
It took forever to do so
Realized that my biggest mistake
Was taking too long to let go

Days went by I'm glad I didn't hold my breath
I felt it in my chest
When you were stepping on me
Now you're begging me to take you back
I need that like a heart attack
Like a hole in my brain


6.Social Life

I just want to be alone
Yea I don't have a social life
Disconnect my telephone
Yea I don't have a social life
Cause there's no place I'd rather be
Than sitting here watching TV
Cause hanging out just ain't for me no more

They say there's something wrong with me
Yea I don't have a social life
Cause home is where I want to be
Yea I don't have a social life
But I'm not hanging out with you
Cause I've got better things to do
I'm gonna watch First Blood part 2 tonight

I'm not going out tonight
Yea I don't have a social life
Don't want anyone in sight
Yea I don't have a social life
Thought that I should let you know
There's no place I'd rather go
When I turn on the stereo tonight

I don't want a social life anymore
I don't want a social life anymore
I don't want a social life anymore
I don't want a social life anymore


7.Welcome To The Nuthouse

I'm in the nuthouse
I'm in the nuthouse
I'm in the nuthouse
And they're not gonna let me out of here

I'm in the nuthouse
I'm in the nuthouse baby
I'm in the nuthouse
And they're not gonna let me out of here

I couldn't take the shit anymore
Freaked out and then I hit the floor
Wiggled around yea I was having fun
I got carried away & swallowed my tongue

Let's go

I'm in the nuthouse
I'm in the nuthouse
I'm in the nuthouse
And they're not gonna let me out of here

I'm in the nuthouse & I don't know what I'm gonna do
I'm in the nuthouse & you know it's all because of you
I'm in the nuthoues & you know it's all because of you

I'm in the nuthouse


8.Anna's Song

All I know is I love you more than anything
And I don't care if everyone makes fun of me
All I know is kissing you means everything
A minute spent without you feels so punishing

I'm never gonna go
I just wanted you to know
I'm never gonna go
I wanted you to know

All I know if loving you's a felony
They'd have to take me into custody
All I know is a feeling's coming over me
All I know is I think about you constantly

I'm never gonna go
I just wanted you to know
I'm never gonna go
I wanted you to know


9.On My Own

I got time to kill to do what I will
Now that you went away
I nearly lost my mind
But now I'm feeling fine
I hope that you're not okay
I didn't know what to tell you
I didn't know what to say to you
But now you're gone and it's on
I'm up all night long
With friends that wanted to stay

I got time to kill to do what I will
Now that you went away
I nearly lost my mind
But now I'm feeling fine
I hope that you're not okay
I didn't know what to tell you
I didn't know what to say to you
I'm having a blast now
Thank god I still remember how

Your folks don't know a thing about me
And your friends keep saying that I'm uncool
And they're right
I put in overtime to make you mine
Convince you not to hate me
Should've know I'd be better off on my own

Now and then I talk to girls again
When they listen to what I say
I think about the time I spent
Wasted on you and me
I'm better off without you
I hope that things are worse for you

Your folks don't know a thing about me
And your friends keep saying I'm uncool
And they're right
Convince you not to hate me
Should have known I'd be better off on my own


10.Totally Stupid

Sometimes I get so bored I don't know what to do
Don't feel like smoking dope, don't feel like sniffing glue
I need a change of pace, yeah, I need something new
Don't want to use my head, don't wanna get a clue

Cos when I'm hangin' out with you
I'm acting totally stupid
You're acting totally stupid
We're acting totally stupid
Cos we've got nothing better to do

Sometimes I sit around all night and watch TV
Sometimes I think my brain's taking control of me
I feel so full of pure retarded energy
They need to lock us up and throw away the key

Cos when you're hangin' out with me
I'm acting totally stupid
You're acting totally stupid
We're acting totally stupid
Cos we've got nothing better to do

I'm acting totally stupid
You're acting totally stupid
We're acting totally stupid
Cos we've got nothing better to do

We're acting totally stupid
Cos we've got nothing to do
(Nothing to do, nothing to do)
We're acting totally stupid
Cos we've got nothing to do
(Nothing to do, nothing to do)
We're acting totally stupid
Cos we've got nothing better to do


11.Crawling Back To You

You can send me messages that say we're through
But I'll keep crawling back to you
Punch me in the head until I'm black and blue
But I'll keep crawling back to you
Yea I'll keep crawling back to you

Cause there's nothing that you can do
To make me not be in love with you
And I'll spend my life to make you see
That you're the only girl for me

I hope it's getting through
I'm never giving up on you
I hope it's getting through
I'm never giving up on you

Set my house on fire using gasoline
But I'll keep crawling back to you
Wrap your hand around my neck 'till I turn green
But I'll keep crawling back to you
Yea I'll keep crawling back to you

Cause there's nothing that you can do
To make me not be in love with you
And I'll spend my life to make you see
That you're the only girl for me

I hope it's getting through
I'm never giving up on you
I hope it's getting through
I'm never giving up on you

Yea I'll keep crawling back to you
Yea I'll keep crawling back to you
Yea I'll keep crawling back to you
Yea I'll keep crawling back to you
Yea I'll keep crawling back to you


12.Warning Device

I wish that sixteen weeks ago
I could've met your friend
And that she'd tell me all the things
She'd tell me that you're full of shit
And you'd treat me like it too
She'd have a chance to talk me out of
Mistakes I've make with you

She'd give me back time I spent
Playing make believe with you
You say you wanted honesty
But pretending isn't true
Careful what you wish for
I wish that someone would have talked
Me out of talking to you and
We'd never get our start

And when I'd see you I'd simply run away
I wouldn't have to break your heart
Or make you want to stay
And when I'd see you
I'd have a second chance
I wouldn't have to waste another day
Feeling like I did today
Like I did today


13.Wasting Time

I've got a picture of your face up in my head like super glue
And 14 hours of TV hasn't deluded any thoughts of you
Now I'm acting like the living dead
Thinking of all the stupid things I've said
And you laughed anyway, even thought I wasn't make sense

And the murdering of minutes is my only crime
Cos I've been sitting here for days thinking of words that rhyme
Because thinking of you is a way I like to waste my time

It's 3am and once again I'm wide awake lying here in my bed
It's been over 2 weeks and you're still hangin' out in my head
Now I'm acting like the living dead
Thinking of all the stupid things I've said
And you laughed anyway, even thought I wasn't make sense

And the murdering of minutes is my only crime
Cos I've been sitting here for days thinking of words that rhyme
Because thinking of you is a way I like to waste my time
Thinking of you is a way I like to waste my time

Yeah, thinking of you is a way I like to waste my time
Thinking of you is a way I like to waste my time
Thinking of you is a way I like to waste my time
Thinking of you is a way I like to waste my time
