lyrics
After recess - soon be going home
After supper - YTV The Zone
Got a headache - staring at the screen
Pizza pockets - cookie dough ice cream
Nineteen-ninety
A decade still alive
In the backyard of my mind
Nineteen-ninety
In the basement of my life is
a VHS of all my wasted time
Few years later - it's all gone to shit
Feeling helpless - feeling sick of it
Girls in English - think that I'm a freak
Girls in French class - think I'm speaking Greek
Nineteen-ninety
A decade still alive
In the backyard of my mind
Nineteen-ninety
In the basement of my life is
a VHS of all my wasted time
A VHS of all my time spent
The tape is busted, I can't rewind it
When I jam it in the VCR deck
It chews it up and spits it out
Shredded mental sauerkraut
Was wasting time what it was all about? Back in
