I'm goin' crazy trying to keep you sane
Takin' my prescriptions, forging my name
I was happy this morning, ya finally got yourself dressed, eatin all the bacon
Its okay i was still impressed

I love you, even if you don't
you've got your knife up to my throat, what do you want to see with me?

Rooting though the garbage for treasures in the trash pile, seein my expression will always make you smile
Please don't touch my phone book, my friends are getting pissed off
Ya wake em I'm the morning, I'm acting like a jerkoff

I love you, even if you don't
you've got your knife up to my throat, what do you want to see with me?

I love you, even if you don't
you've got your knife up to my throat, what do you want to see with me?

I love you, even if you don't
you've got your knife up to my throat, what do you want to see with me?

Ween

Ween was an American experimental rock band. They formed in 1984 in New Hope, Pennsylvania when central members Aaron Freeman (Gene Ween) and Mickey Melchiondo (Dean Ween) met in an eighth grade typing class. Ween has a large cult underground fanbase[citation needed] despite being less known in American pop music. The band's style is eclectic, and while they could generally be referred to as rock music, one of their defining tendencies has been experimentation with various styles incorporating a strong element of humor and absurdity. Both Gene and Dean are skilled multi-instrumentalists who overdubbed various instruments on their recordings, though they also record with the regular touring band. Gene is normally the lead vocalist and Dean the lead guitarist. … more »
