about

This song is about when our old bass player, Tyler Lee Witt, went to jail in early 2009 and we had to have our friend Scott Meadows fill in on bass for us for a lot of shows that spring. A lot of rumors went around as to why Tyler went to jail and this song talks all about them. Tyler also appears on this track on the phone. There is a lot of self deprecation, corruption in the music scene, media and plenty of anger and random references once again. Also, the entire first verse of this song was directly taken from Tyler's MySpace bio!... HA! What?... Fun times.

lyrics

My name is Tyler Lee Witt

and in the next 5 years

it'll be a household name

I've done more growing up

in the past 5 months

than I have in my entire life

I've finally found the light

I finally know what I'm here for

I've put smoking weed and

Robbing corner stores

I'll take it back

This life is mine its all my own

The future starts at my grandma's house at my computer all alone

I'll seperate myself from them and make a bunch of new friends

I'll start a new band and make it so

EVERYONE CAN LISTEN

to the catchy songs we'll write

we'll fucking record with Joey Sturgis

The kids will line up to see our pretty faces headlining at the attic

$20 a head could pay for our honest rave review

In the latest issue of SPIN where I'll be rockin the front cover

Lookin like Billie Joe Armstrong meets a 'Breakfast Club' Judd Nelson

My name is Tyler Lee Witt

and in the next 5 years

it will be a household name

I've done more growing up

in the past 5 months

than I have in my entire life

WOO!

Drop the Anchor!

I'm on a boat motherfucker!

I'm rollin in the bills and I've got so many bitches that I

Hit it and I quit it outta notches on my belt and the

paparazzi love it when I come out my hotel.

My name is Robert Dale Sager

and in the next five beers

I'll be digging my own grave

I've done less growing up

in the past 5 years...

then I have in my entire life.
