Only Excuses (from 3o'clockreep)

[Veets]

Any help with the end?

maybe it's the change of season
that is in the air
or the distance between us
that's measured with a calendar
a hundred different reasons
to stay in your room
and they're only excuses
only excuses
they're only excuses
for feelin like you do

going out
like you used to do
doesn't thrill much anymore
there's better things to do
seen that band
no reason to see them again
there's a hundred different reasons
why a loser just can't win

and they're only excuses
only excuses
only excuses
for feeling bad

and they're only excuses
only excuses
only excuses
/ [are way so bad]?
/ [are way so bad]?

Not as blatant as "Finally Here Once" = INXS "This Time", but....



damn if this song doesn't remind me of Neil Young's "After The Gold Rush".

This is getting very, very weird.

FWIW, I heard Neil in this one too.

Has anybody ever thought the Replacements got their name from "After the Gold Rush?"

I was lying in a burned out basement
With the full moon in my eyes.
I was hoping for a replacement
When the sun burst through the sky.
There was a band playing in my head
And I felt like getting high.
