Lyrics
Remember when I met you
Reflecting on the initial meeting with the person being addressed.
And I got your number
Obtaining the person's contact information.
Who knew talking to you
Expressing surprise that conversing with the person turned out to be disappointing.
Would be such a bummer
Acknowledging the negative impact of the interaction.
It's all a bunch of opinions
Highlighting that opinions dominate the situation.
When all I want is some goddamn fun
Desiring enjoyment and fun amidst differing opinions.
No, your words don't cut like knives
Denying that the words spoken by the person are deeply hurtful.
They don't break skin and they can't slice
Emphasizing that the words lack the power to cause physical harm.
They don't hurt me the way you'd like them to
Rejecting the intended emotional impact of the words.
If you really wanna fight
Inviting the person to engage in a conflict but advising to brace for advice.
Then take a seat and hold on tight
Suggesting that the person should prepare for some guidance in the potential confrontation.
And I just might have some advice for you
Hinting at providing advice in response to the impending conflict.
Go throw your sticks and stones
Encouraging the person to resort to physical actions rather than words.
Your branches and your boulders
Mentioning various physical objects like sticks, stones, branches, and boulders symbolizing tangible actions.
Don't waste your time on words
Advising against investing time and energy in verbal communication.
Don't say I never told you
Warning not to disregard the advice given.
Let's ease up on your attack
Suggesting a reduction in the intensity of the verbal attack.
'Cause it's a scientific fact
Asserting that causing harm through words is limited by scientific evidence.
You can't enact much damage with a verb
Stating the ineffectiveness of causing significant damage with words.
Words are just words are just words are just words
Reiterating that words, in essence, are just words and lack substantial impact.
The voice that you use
Criticizing the unpleasant tone or manner of the person's voice.
Is so unpleasant
Expressing discomfort when in the company of the person.
When I'm with you
Expressing a desire to not be in the person's presence.
I wish I wasn't
Reiterating the negative impact of the interaction.
It's all a bunch of opinions
Reemphasizing the dominance of opinions in the situation.
When all I want is some goddamn fun
Repeating the desire for enjoyment amidst differing opinions.
Words are just words are just words are just words
Reiterating the idea that words are just words, emphasizing its repetition.
