Do-do-do The velvet it rips in the city Goodbye Do-do-do, do-do-do-doo You're the priestess I must confess To the place where I fell asleep inside you? Songwriter: Stephan Jenkins And I wish it could get back there, some place back there Said how do I get back there But nothing is all right, all right Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye I keep stock with a tick-tock rhythm, a bump for the drop The sky was gold, it was rose Do-do-do, do-do-do-doo Ovation, her own motivation To get me through this life baby Do-do-do, do-do-do-doo I believe in the faith that grows Come on like a freak show, takes the stage Doing crystal meth will lift you up until you break And when the plane came in Do ever what you want to do, coming over you Then I bumped again, then I bumped again We give them the games we play, she said Keep on smiling what we go through Do-do-do, do-do-do-doo But now I'm struggling to survive When I'm with you I feel like I could die And I wish it could get back there, some place back there We tripped on the urge to feel alive I'm not listening when you say I want something else Still it's all that I want to do, just a little now Feel myself head made of the ground Publisher: 3EB PUBLISHING Do-do-do, do-do-do-doo She comes 'round and she goes down on me She's got her jaws now locked down in a smile And I make her smile like a drug for you (I want something else) And that would be all right, all right One stop to the rhythm that divides you And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse Do-do-do, do-do-do-doo And then I bumped up, I took the hit that I was given Do-do-do, do-do-do-doo How do I get myself back to the place I want something else I'm not listening when you say And you hold me and we are broken Says she lives for me I was taking sips of it through my nose Semi-charmed kind of life baby, baby Goodbye Not listening when you say Do-do-do, do-do-do-doo And the four right chords can make me cry Those days you were wearing that velvet dress I was taking sips of it through my nose I want something else She said she was crashing Where you said? It won't stop, I won't come down And I won't run for my life The sky was gold, it was rose She's living, she's golden, she lives for me To get me through this Smiling in the pictures you would take To get me through this Do-do-do, do-do-do-doo Do-do-do, do-do-do-doo I'm packed and I'm holding, I'm smiling Do-do-do Down on the mattress one I want something else I want something else I'm scared, I'm not coming down, no, no Those little red panties, they pass the test The beach gives a feeling, an earthy feeling Do-do-do, do-do-do-doo Do-do-do, do-do-do-doo In the place we used to start And I want something else Slide up around the belly face Chop another line like a coda with a curse Semi-charmed kind of life baby, baby I believe in the sand beneath my toes
definitely one of my all time favorite songs, brings me back to high school days!!

I never really knew what this song was about. It is depressing.
|
||
wow never knew what the lyrics really were...now i know haha. still love the song!!!!!!! :)
|
||
Er...Slighty different context (I'm addicted to something and the pretty lady wants to stay 50 feet away from me at all times of Day)
|
||
Really? You're a horny crystal meth addict who's girlfriend died in a plane crash? =P
|
||
This is one of the most d depressing things I've ever heard, set to the happiest, preppiest beat you can imagine. It reminds me of the style blink-182 used to use, with songs like "Go". Damn awesome song though. =)
|
||
its really not that dirty of a song compared to songs like californicat i o n
just dont read the lyrics and listen to the music and not the words, it makes music alot better |
||
i have got to stop reading the lyrics to songs. i had no idea this song was so dirty. i still love it, though.
|
||
yeah - gotta love a song that sounds so happy and poppy is about a crystal meth addiction.

Love this song.
Yes, it's dirty... but I didn't even notice until I looked at the lyrics, Jaclyn, so I agree with you! :) :) |
||
This song is awesome, and yeah, the song is dirty, but... Hell, most people don't even notice it cause it's too catchy!!!! :)
|
||
I love this song with a huge passion despite the fact that the lyrics are incredibly dirty and that too much playtime on thee radio has come close to ruining it. This still rocks its a** of and we love it!! It gets my spirit up all the time and this is w/o a doubt Third Eye Blind's greatest song ever! Thanks T.E.B. for this masterpiece of a song!
|
||
This song is one of maybe 10 songs of it's time that defines the proof that rap and rock can co-exist. Every time it gets airtime on the radio I turn it up LOUD and feel good. May it live forever.
|
||
i had heard this song before, but i never knew what it was called. I love it!!! "When I'm with you I fell like I coul die and that would be all right."
|
||
I LOVE this song "I want Something Else to get me throught this SEMI-CHARMED kind of LIFE"
|
||
It's a bit too pop-ish for me, but nearly every other song on this album is good stuff. Semi-Charmed life isn't bad, but it's just ok (for me).
|
||
