Story of My Life Lyrics


I get to the party but I'm too late
And I got stood up on my very first date
I listen to country and everybody goes rock
I get you to the dance floor, that's when the music stopsIt doesn't matter what I do, I just can't seem to win
But here I go againAnd I say, hey, that's the story of my life
I had a good plan but it didn't go right
Oh no, I'm overdrawn
I check my account and the money's all goneWhy me? I don't know what to think
I finally get aboard and the whole boat sinks
Seems to be the story of my lifeI pick a slot machine and lose it all again
But when I walk away, someone else always wins
When she finally calls me, I forget my phone
And when I'm starving, you know the kitchen's closedIt doesn't matter what I try, it all ends up the same
And here I go againAnd I say, hey, that's the story of my life
I had a good plan but it didn't go right
Oh no, I'm overdrawn
I check my account and the money's all goneWhy me? I don't know what to think
I finally get aboard and the whole boat sinks

Seems to be the story of my lifeJust when it seems like it's turning 'round for me
There's always something that ends up happening
I found my car but I can't find my keysI get to the party a little too late
And once again, the music stops to playHey, that's the story of my life
I had a good plan but it didn't go right
Oh no, I'm overdrawn
I check my account and the money's all goneWhy me? I don't know what to think
I finally get aboard and the whole boat sinks
Seems to be the story of my lifeThe story of my life
The story of my life
That's the story of my life
That's the story of my life

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.
