i wrote this song when i was 19 years old in 1999.
lyrics
i never really liked the bus/i never enjoyed it enough/when i hopped on it wasn't fun/no ice cream sat on chewing gum and now i can't get off...
i never really liked the park but i got off on shopping carts/ and the owner is yelling at me/ but the owner is yelling at me and now i can't get off...
i never liked my swimming pool/ there were bullfrogs and fish in school/that was the furst day i learned to swim/ when my daddy-waddy threw me in and now i can't get out...
