Passion paralyzes all my good intentions Now I'm fighting with my body Just to show you some sort of affection While you try and call it affliction I'm just calling it self discipline While all this downtown negativity's been following me and stalking me Between the university and Richmond street Between those cocaine deals and bachelor degrees I'd say I'm sorry but All the girls at this party They're into drama and Ginsburg and lemon lime Bacardi They're into Okkervil River And trying to get to know everybody Ya I'd say I'm sorry but Hell is my backup plan We're not a band motherfucker we're a gang So let's hang 'Cause all we want to meet is someone out there with a bit of integrity Hell is my backup plan We're not a band, we're nothing man 'Cause all we want to meet is someone out there with a bit of personality 'Cause heaven sounds like it'd be boring for guys like you and me All the girls at this party They're into drama and Ginsburg and lemon lime Bacardi They're into Arcade Fire And trying to get to know everybody Hell is my backup plan We're not a band, we're nothing man And all we want to meet is someone out there with a bit of integrity Hell is my backup plan We're not a band motherfucker we're a gang So let's hang And all we want to meet is someone out there with a bit of personality 'Cause heaven sounds like it'd be boring for guys like you and me All the girls at this party They're into drama and Ginsburg and lemon lime Bacardi They're into Elliot Smith And trying to get to know everybody So I'm getting Bukowski drunk I'm falling down man I'm getting myself held up None of these girls even get how great I was once And I was pretty fuckin' great Hell is my backup plan We're not a band motherfucker we're a gang So let's hang 'Cause all we want to meet is someone out there with a bit of integrity Hell is my backup plan We're not a band, we're nothing man And all we want to meet is someone out there with a little personality 'Cause heaven sounds like it'd be boring for guys like you and me Don't you think? 'Cause heaven seems like it's out of the question At least with our reputation Wouldn't you agree?
