Pet Names Lyrics


Just when I thought everything would be ok
Just when I started to believe that everything was going my way
Out came the cloud from under my feet
Crashing back down to realityYou used to call me Pumpkin now, I'm Halloween
Remember when I used to be your jellybean
You used to call me Schnookums and shit like that
Now you're after me, with a baseball batI remember when I used to be the king
Your honey sweety darling baby everything
I used to be your tall dark mystery man
Now I'm just straight up history manJust when I thought everything would be alright
Just when I started to believe that everything was out of sight
You left me with nothing but a scribbled note
That said I would no longer be your love boat
From here on out my pet name would be X
Your X, your X, your XIt used to be sugar then it turned into salt
I used to rock your world now, I'm standing on a fault line
Lying naked in a hail storm in the dark
You're my little tornado and I am your trailer parkYou used to call me names too cute to repeat

Like Honey Bunch, Hairy Bear and Piccolo Peet
Goochy goochy goo goo gaga shit like that
Now you're after me screaming,"You dirty rat!"I don't remember applying for a name change
So why is it you're calling me, Mr. Deranged?
Psychopathic, pornographic, stinking drunk
Failing fast, lying ass, worthless punkYou used to call me Sweety Pie and Baby Doll
I guess another studs kicking in my stall
You'll probably call him Superman or Loverboy
You'll probably disregard him like a broken toyJust when he thought everything was going his way
Just when he started to believe that everything was hunky dory
He'll look at that cloud that he's standing on
And with an itsy, bitsy, tiny little, almost inaudible squeak
He'll notice
It's gone
From here on out his pet name would be X
Your X, your X, your XSweety Pie, no X
Honey Bunch, no X
Proper Pie, no X
Pumpkin face, yes

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Smash Mouth is an alternative rock band from San Jose, California, United States that formed in 1994, the band comprises Steve Harwell (lead vocalist), Greg Camp (guitarist/songwriter), Paul De Lisle (bassist), and new drummer since early 2006, Jason Sutter (replacing Michael Urbano, who left due to creative differences). Their hit songs include "Walkin' On The Sun" (1997) and "All Star" (1999).

Focused at times playing "neo-ska" music, the band has adopted retro styles spanning several decades of popular music, as well as performing covers of popular songs such as The Monkees' "I'm a Believer" and War's "Why Can't We Be Friends" as well as cult favorites such as ? and the Mysterians' "Can't Get Enough of You Baby" (though their version owes more to The Colourfield's interpretation; in fact, the band at first believed it was a Colourfield original). Smash Mouth's first album Fush Yu Mang came out in June 1997. This album could be said to be "neo ska". Its top position in the charts was #19 (on Billboard). The promo for this album said that "While the twelve songs on Fush Yu Mang sound like they belong side by side, each has it's own feeling like the very '60's "Walkin' On The Sun," the surf 'n' turf of "Nervous In The Alley," the Buzzcocks like "Pet Names," the Mafia rock of "Padrino," and the fret rock of "Let's Rock"." Smash Mouth's second album Astro Lounge was released two years later, in June 1999. It is the band's most critically and commercially successful album to date. It reached #6 on the Billboard charts and it featured the massive hit All Star.

Smash Mouth released their third album Smash Mouth (Self-Titled) in November 2001. It has been said that this is the band's most experimental album to date. It reached #48 on Billboard charts. Smash Mouth's fourth album Get the Picture?, released in August 2003, wasn't as well-received by fans or the critics as previous albums (it only reached #100 on the Billboard charts). Smash Mouth released a Christmas cover album in November 2005 (The Gift Of Rock). Their newest album is called Summer Girl, and, after being delayed for over a year, was released on September 19th, 2006. Smash Mouth's music was used in the film "Shrek" and they starred on-screen as themselves in the turbulent finale of the all-star-comedy "Rat Race", while performing "All Star" on stage during the showdown.
