...just another girl who costarred?
they're gonna wrap you up in cornsilk.
they're gonna cry like you were spilled milk.

so by now you know my favorite band is the old 97s. duh. their new album is coming out in a couple of weeks and i was working on some curriculum ideas while helping rr w/a project and asked hithhiking about lyrics for the new kid, and here it they are...does anyone else think this is about the music industry?

the new kid he's got money
the money i deserve
he's got the goods but he's no good for his word
i should be rollin in it
i've been a working stiff
as for the justice no one knows where it went

i'm gonna toil away
until my judgment day
i will be rewarded for the good things i did
believe me every year
there is another one here
don't you see i used to be the new kid

i am sorry to say
you'll get carried away
you will be replaced, you will be replaced
i'll tell you again
don't get too settled in
you will be replaced, you will be replaced

the new kid he's got my girl
the girl i used to have
he's got the looks you know, got them from his dad
i should be kissing that girl
we should be so in love
there is no justice there's just dark stars above

i'm gonna toil away
until my judgment day
i will be rewarded for the good things i did
believe me every year
there is another one here
don't you see i used to be the new kid

i am sorry to say
you'll get carried away
you will be replaced, you will be replaced
i'll tell you again
don't get too settled in
you will be replaced,
you will be replaced ... by the new kid.

a lot has happened in the last few weeks. we almost lost my brother on a plane back from maui and my family had a very huge scare as he was met at the OAK gate by paramedics and taken away on an ambulence, very disoriented and afraid for his life. he wasn't himself for a few days. this whole experience has been terrifying and it's so hard to believe that there is nothing they can do. my brother didn't do anything. i don't know why this is happening. it's hard to believe that so many people go through this...just as bad if not worse...

he is with us today and i thank god for it. don't dare call it denial, my brother has proven these asshole doctors wrong for over 30 months, i am still here keeping vigil, keeping faith and hope...something good will happen. he'll have been close, but he will get well and have a wonderful, long life...he just has to.

bout to give this girl a shout

>>back in the day>>
>>i'm not a kid anymore>>
>>but somedays i sit & wish i was a kid again>>
