The Vandals - Bad Birthday Bash lyrics

House all to myself

it was my birthday present

But total wrack'n'ruin

soon became apparent

I just wanted a band

to play my favorite song

I thought that it would be mellow

but boy was I wrong

I thought they'd played the cowboy song

(I heard it on the radio)

I thought it could be mellow

(but how could I know)

I just wanted a band

to play my favorite song

I thought that it would be mellow

but boy was I wrong

Asked to bring some friends

they walked in with mohawks

As the band began to play

they started to throw rocks

Now I thought that this was cool

til they threw me in the pool

The sofa must of missed me

cause now it sits here with me

I just wanted a band

to play my favorite song

I thought that it would be mellow

but boy was I wrong

I thought they'd played the cowboy song

(I heard it on the radio)

I thought it could be mellow

(but how could I know)

War declared on furniture

still no mercy shown

Anything not nailed

was immediately thrown

Final damage toll

is better left unspoken

By the time they left my house

there was nothing left unbroken
