Why, Oh Why, Oh Why (Oh Oh Oh Oh)

[Verse 1]

Ever since you were young, you've been begging them to treat you like an adult

Even when you're not, they will treat you like you're six years old

Condescending stares down your nose from the back corner of a party

Oh, your little clique's got cool but you aren't any fun

[Pre-Chorus 1]

So why, oh why, oh why am I hellbent on acceptance here?

Like a non-sarcastic smile could really fix my day

When I get so depressed sometimes I can barely put the bottle down

And I know that you won't care if I go away?

[Chorus]

So I won't care, not from this point forward

If you're so stuck on feeling cool

Why oh why did I ever care about you?

[Verse 2]

When you're down and out, those acquaintances that treat you like a stranger

Scramble to the phone for the scoop on your latest little fall

They're the ones who call you, but only when they're looking for a favor

And you can hear the cracks when they tell you that it's been too long

[Pre-Chorus 2]

So why, oh why, oh why do I even stay in touch with you

When you're only here to leech off my good days?

When I get so depressed at night it's a wonder that I'm still around

And I know that you won't care if I go away

[Chorus]

So I won't care, not from this point forward

If you're so stuck on feeling cool

Why oh why did I ever care about you?

[Bridge]

Oh I get so depressed sometimes it's a miracle that I'm still around

And I know that you won't care if I go away

[Verse 3]

There's a marathon that I watch as a kid every New Years

Of The Twilight Zone and I wonder if it's still on

These days I get shit housed and make plans to lose weight before the summer

Oh tell me, why I'm first in line to find what I'm doing wrong?

[Chorus]

'Cause I won't care, not from this point forward

If you're so stuck on feeling cool

Why oh why did I ever care about you?

Why oh why did I ever care about you?

[Chorus]

So I won't care, not from this point forward

If you're so stuck on feeling cool

Why oh why did I ever care about you?
