They're fresh out of batteries And you know what else? My name is Jonas The workers are going home I gotta box full of your toys Once but never again The choo-choo train left right on time Let me tell you 'bout it But they're still makin' noise, makin' noise My name is Jonas Of course, we were willing to pay The driver said, "Hey man, we go all the way" Just like grandma made Songwriters: Jason Cropper, Rivers Cuomo, Patrick Wilson Building's not going as he planned We've all left the den Now this wheel is flat Now the tank is dry The dozer will not clear a path Yeah! The workers are going home The workers are going home The workers are going home Publisher: E.O. SMITH MUSIC Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Things were better then Words of deep concern The workers are going home The workers are going home I'm carrying the wheel Come sit next to me When we couldn't find sleep Tell me what to do From my little brother But this is how we feel Pour yourself some tea Guess what I received Thanks for all you've shown us In the mail today The workers are going home The foreman has injured his hand The driver swears he learned his math My name is Wepeel A ticket costs only your mind

one of the most overused chord progressions ever...not a bad song tho.

this was in Guitar Hero? man, I'm dense.
but with or without that silly game, this song is great! |

Jim Gater,
Sorry, it's a great opener. But "Runnin' with the Devil" is better. Especially when you remember nothing sounded like that when it came out. But my prize for all-time album opener has to go to AC/DC, "Hell's Bells" on Back in Black. The bells, the building riff, and the thunderous rhythm section with Brian Johnson's snarling vocals. AC/DC's make-it-or-b r e a k - i t album. And that song told you right where the whole album was going. This is a great opener though. |

amen, zerrch. i didnt even know this song was on guitar hero until my friends told me! ive loved this song for years. it came out a year before i was born (woohoo =p)
|

i can prolly do this song on guitar hero without looking. lol i luv weezer
|

Agreed zerrch. We didn't need guitar hero to teach US how to rock! Best song to open an album ever? I can only imagine "Debaser" on Doolittle as being right up there.

F**k Guitar Hero. This song rocked back when I would listen to it in 4th grade.
