MxPx - Under Lock and Key (Between This World and the Next)

This song always has been a mouthful to sing live! But it’s so much fun when the rhythm hits!! I love bouncing to this!

I must have had a lot on my mind when I wrote it too. It’s funny to think about how dumb I was when I was younger (still am in a lot of ways) but at least I got some good songs out of the train wreck of my youth!

It’s all fond memories for me when I think back. Even the hard times. That’s what’s got us here!

Lyrics:
There's something crazy,
Something strange about
The way I'm lazy
And how I go about
Giving my time and how I reason
Do all my problems
Have to do with how I reason?

Don't feel bad if you haven't figured out
Cause I'm not mad
There's really no need to shout
There's really no way
You could have estimated
That you would ever in your life
Be so frustrated

If you knew what was good for you
You'd lock me up
Throw away the key
You don't need me
And no you never will
You never did as far as I can tell

Should I wake up
And explain myself to you
Or should I not care
And sleep the whole day through
Finding the sense in everything
Is like going through my room
To find a diamond ring

Living day by day
Is all that I can say
Something to believe in
Might be the other way
We can't know for sure
Until we open the door
Inherent choice,
Choice I can't take any more

If you knew what was good for you
You'd lock me up
Throw away the key
You don't need me
And no you never will
You never did
As far as I can tell you
