Tom DeLonge
Adam’s Song (Live)
[Verse 1: Mark Hoppus]
I never thought I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest, who'd have known?
I trace the cord back to the wall
No wonder, it was never plugged in at all
I took my time, I hurried up
The choice was mine, I didn't think enough
I'm too depressed to go on
But you'll be sorry when I'm gone

[Chorus: Mark Hoppus]
I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside
The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over, we'd survived
I couldn't wait 'til I got home
To pass the time in my room alone

[Verse 2: Mark Hoppus]
I never thought I'd die alone
Another six months, I'll be unknown
Give all my things to all my friends
You'll never step foot in my room again
You'll close it off, you'll board it up
Remember the time that I spilled the cup
Of apple juice in the hall
Please tell mom this is not her fault
[Chorus: Mark Hoppus]
I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside
The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over, we'd survived
I couldn't wait 'til I got home
To pass the time in my room alone

[Chorus: Mark Hoppus]
I never conquered, rarely came
Tomorrow holds such better days
Days when I still feel alive
When I can't wait to get outside
The world is wide, the time goes by
The tour is over, I've survived
I can't wait 'til I get home
To pass the time in my room alone

[Speech]
Mark: Thanks a lot
Tom: I want you all to say "fuck" with me! 1, 2, 3!
Mark: Fuck with me? Why?
Tom: Well not really, you don't say the "with me" part, just—just the "fuck" part, that's—
Mark: Ha, okay
Tom: Alright let's try that one more time
Mark: He's-
Tom: What
Mark: He just wants you to say "fuck"
Tom: Yeah, not the "with me"
Mark: But he wants you to say "with him"
Tom: With me
Mark: Okay, go ahead and try again Tom
Tom: So do I count to 3 and then say it? How do we do this?
Mark: It goes "1, 2, 3 fuck"
Tom: Okay
Mark: Okay cool
Tom: 1, 2, 3!
Crowd: Fuck!
Tom: Alright, that was so bad
Mark: Here we go, this song's called "Peggy Sue", it goes like this
