5-songs-from-2001-you-wont-be-able-to-get-out-of-your-head

Well it’s me Nick again, coming back at you with another flashback list from the glory days of pop-punk and emo, the early 2000’s. This time im targeting in on the year of 2001, the turn of the century and a year that had some of the catchiest pop-punk tunes of any year. 

Below you can check out my Top 5 songs from 2001 that you all know the words to and will be singing all day! (Sorry in advance :-])

Sum 41 – Fat Lip

Storming through the party like my name is El Niño
When I’m a hangin’ out drinking in the back of an El Camino
As a kid, was a skid, and no one knew me by name
Trashed my own house party ’cause nobody came

I know I’m not the one you thought you knew back in high school
Never going, never showing up when we had to
Attention that we crave, don’t tell us to behave
I’m sick of always hearing “act your age”

I don’t want to waste my time
Become another casualty of society
I’ll never fall in line
Become another victim of your conformity and back down

Because you don’t
Know us at all we laugh when old people fall
But what would you expect with a conscience so small?
Heavy metal and mullets is how we were raised
Maiden and Priest were the gods that we praised

‘Cause we like having fun at other peoples expense and
Cutting people down is just a minor offense and
It’s none of your concern, I guess I’ll never learn
I’m sick of being told to wait my turn

I don’t want to waste my time
Become another casualty of society
I’ll never fall in line
Become another victim of your conformity and back down

Don’t count on me to let you know when
Don’t count on me, I’ll do it again
Don’t count on me, it’s the point you’re missin’
Don’t count on me, ’cause I’m not listenin’

Well I’m a no-goodnick lower middle class brat
Back-packed and I don’t give a shit about nothing
You be standing on the corner talking all that kufuffin
But you don’t make sense from all the gas you be huffing

‘Cause if the egg don’t stain you’ll be ringing off the hook
You’re on the hit list wanted in the telephone book
I like songs with distortion, to drink in proportion
The doctor said my mom should have had an abortion
(Abortion, abortion, abortion)

I don’t want to waste my time
Become another casualty of society
I’ll never fall in line
Become another victim of your conformity and back down

(Waste my time with them)
Casualty of society
(Waste my time again)
Victim of your conformity and back down

American Hi-Fi – Flavor Of The Weak

She paints her nails
And she don’t know
He’s got her best friend on the phone
She’ll wash her hair
His dirty clothes
Are all he gives to her

And he’s got posters on the wall
Of all the girls he wished she was
And he means everything to her

Her boyfriend
He don’t know
Anything about her
He’s too stoned
Nintendo
I wish that I could make her see
She’s just the flavor of the week

It’s Friday night
And she’s all alone
He’s a million miles away
She’s dressed to kill
The TV’s on
He’s connected to the sound

And he’s got pictures on the wall
Of all the girls he’s loved before
And she knows all his favorite songs

Her boyfriend
He don’t know
Anything about her
He’s too stoned
Nintendo
I wish that I could make her see
She’s just the flavor of the week
Yeah!

Her boyfriend
He don’t know
Anything about her
He’s too stoned
He’s too stoned
He’s too stoned
He’s too stoned

Her boyfriend
He don’t know
Anything about her 
He’s too stoned
Nintendo
I wish that I could make her see
She’s just the flavor of the week

Yeah she’s the flavor of the week
She makes me weak

Blink 182 – First Date

In the car I just can’t wait
To pick you up on our very first date
Is it cool if I hold your hand?
Is it wrong if I think it’s lame to dance?
Do you like my stupid hair?
Would you guess that I didn’t know what to wear?
I’m just scared of what you think
You make me nervous so I really can’t eat

Let’s go
Don’t wait
This night’s almost over
Honest, let’s make
This night last forever
Forever and ever
Let’s make this last forever
Forever and ever
Let’s make this last forever

When you smile, I melt inside
I’m not worthy for a minute of your time
I really wish it was only me and you
I’m jealous of everybody in the room
Please don’t look at me with those eyes
Please don’t hint that you’re capable of lies
I dread the thought of our very first kiss
A target that I’m probably gonna miss

Let’s go
Don’t wait
This night’s almost over
Honest, let’s make
This night last forever
Forever and ever
Let’s make this last forever
Forever and ever
Let’s make this last forever

​Let’s go
Don’t wait
This night’s almost over
Honest, let’s make
This night last forever
Forever and ever
Let’s make this last forever
Forever and ever
Let’s make this last forever
Forever and ever
Let’s make this last forever
Forever and ever
Let’s make this last forever

System Of A Down – Chop Suey!

Wake up (wake up)
Grab a brush and put on a little makeup
Hide the scars to fade away the shakeup (hide the scars to fade away the)
Why’d you leave the keys upon the table?
Here you go, create another fable

You wanted to
Grab a brush and put a little makeup
You wanted to
Hide the scars to fade away the shakeup
You wanted to
Why’d you leave the keys upon the table?
You wanted to

I don’t think you trust
In my self-righteous suicide
I cry when angels deserve to die

Wake up (wake up)
Grab a brush and put on a little makeup
Hide the scars to fade away the (hide the scars to fade away the)
Why’d you leave the keys upon the table?
Here you go, create another fable

You wanted to
Grab a brush and put a little makeup
You wanted to
Hide the scars to fade away the shakeup
You wanted to
Why’d you leave the keys upon the table?
You wanted to

I don’t think you trust
In my self-righteous suicide
I cry when angels deserve to die
In my self-righteous suicide
I cry when angels deserve to die

Father (father)
Father (father)
Father (father)
Father (father)
Father, into your hands I commit my spirit
Father, into your hands

Why have you forsaken me?
In your eyes forsaken me
In your thoughts forsaken me
In your heart forsaken me, oh

Trust in my self-righteous suicide
I cry when angels deserve to die
In my self-righteous suicide
I cry when angels deserve to die

Jimmy Eat World – The Middle

Hey, don’t write yourself off yet
It’s only in your head you feel left out or looked down on
Just try your best
Try everything you can
And don’t you worry what they tell themselves
When you’re away

It just takes some time
Little girl, you’re in the middle of the ride
Everything, everything will be just fine
Everything, everything will be all right, all right

Hey, you know they’re all the same
You know you’re doing better on your own (On your own)
So don’t buy in
Live right now
Yeah, just be yourself
It doesn’t matter if it’s good enough (Good enough)
For someone else

It just takes some time
Little girl, you’re in the middle of the ride
Everything, everything will be just fine
Everything, everything will be all right, all right

It just takes some time
Little girl, you’re in the middle of the ride
Everything, everything will be just fine
Everything, everything will be all right, all right

Whoo

Hey, don’t write yourself off yet
It’s only in your head you feel left out (Feel left out)
Or looked down on
Just do your best (Just do your best)
Do everything you can (Do everything you can)
And don’t you worry what their bitter hearts (Bitter hearts)
Are gonna say

It just takes some time
Little girl, you’re in the middle of the ride
Everything, everything will be just fine
Everything, everything will be all right, all right

It just takes some time
Little girl, you’re in the middle of the ride
Everything, everything will be just fine
Everything, everything will be all right
