    Lyrics:
    You really think that you're bigger than this?
    To the tune of ten thousand lisps
    Who'd have thought we'd represent
    When I can't take a compliment
    Overexposure is the key
    And any focus on me
    Is appreciated
    As it should be
    No wonder now
    I finally found
    The right formula for...
    You taught me how, I play the fool
    Every mistake that I make
    I couldn't have made without you
    What's said is done and plain to see
    You take it all too seriously
    What better way to make an honest mistake
    Than a televised hand of fate
    When the world closes in on you
    A decision would be overdue
    Now, nothing left is out of hand
    A stronger, jaded man stands
    If the world is ending
    We toast to it
    I'm stronger now
    But not without
    The right formula for...
    You taught me how
    I play the fool
    Every mistake that I make
    I couldn't have made without you
    What's said is done
    And plain to see
    Here's all you get from me
    Here's all you get from me
    I'm down for whatever
    What's there left to wait for?
    I'm down for whatever
    What's there left to wait for?
    Wait for?
    I’ll wait!
    You taught me how
    I play the fool
    Every mistake that I make
    I couldn't have made without you
    What's said is done
    And plain to see
    Here's all you get from me

      I bought that one on a vintage mail catalogue we had in Italy because it had Millencolin's fox in it. I only knew them on the tracklist, cause of the Tony Hawk game where No Cigar was on the soundtrack. Pennywise, The Hives, these guys and many more. That vhs was me becoming a punkrocker in one day 😅

    I worked at a tattoo studio around the time Get Up Kids went on their anniversary tour. I ended up getting guestlisted for the show after one of the opening bands stopped in. Here I am now reminiscing about a night that made me reminisce about my high school days. Thanks for being there for me!

    I first heard The Get Up Kids when a clerk at Newbury Comics was playing “Four Minute Mile” in the store back in 1997 or 1998. I bought the CD and immediately became a SuperFan. Followed them since, buying every record. Sadly, missed a rare small show 20 minutes from me shortly before they fired James. I’ve led a charmed life where that is one of my biggest regrets. Now, I am old.

I'll never forget my first time seeing this video, then lucking out and learning that TGUK was playing in Seattle just months from then with The Anniversary and Koufax! It was 1999 and I was only 16 years old and it was my first real punk show!! They introduced me to the punk/emo world and I've never been the same. Ya'll have really made my life so much better because of it. Thank you guys ❤❤❤

    This album/video was a real turning point for dudes like me who had been listening to nothing but Epitaph and FAT bands. Very suddenly, The Get Up Kids and Saves the Day (along with a lot of other Vagrant artists) changed the musical sensibilities of countless punk kids. Dudes with Screeching Weasel shirts and studded belts quickly traded them in for lip piercings and girl jeans. Yeah, the term "emo" was later bastardized and used as a catch-all for dozens of new rock bands, but what form of art isn't subjected to that type of commodification? It was still a fun time to be young and start a LiveJournal account.
