ok go

i can remember sitting around at my house

and watching the smoke fill the living room

as you rested your feet on my coffee table

and we watched something on tv

talked about the world

but the lines were already drawn from the magazines

and you called me a sponge

and you were just like diamond coated plastic

just plastic, so invincible, so invincible

but it's not like that at all, it's not like that anymore and i'm not

like that anymore

and i gotta hold my breath

'cause the puddle that got you is bound to get me too

and i shouldn't hold my breath

'cause a sponge like you needs a puddle to go to

and i, i have breathing room

'cause the puddle in which you fell

my diamond coated plastic could repel

could repel, could repel

diamond coated plastic could repel

could repel

my diamond coated plastic could repel

and i will repel you just like you're one of the others

and i will expel you just like you're one of the others

because you are, one of the others now

it's kinda weird i think the way that people change

think you know someone, but you don't, but you can't

so come up, so come up

'cause i don't even care anymore

'cause you'll never be alone

and i'll always be alone

'cause you're a sponge

'cause you're a sponge

'cause you're a sponge

who would ever guess it?

not me, not me, but i don't even know anymore

and how am i to know anymore

and i, i'm out of breath, cause i've been holding it for years

and holding back the tears

please let me catch my breath

and soak up a puddle there

and scrambling for air

i finally got my breath

and now at least i know for sure

i'm a puddle stomper, stomper, stomper, stomper, stomper, stomper

i am a puddle stomper, stomper

i'm a puddle stomper

i'm a puddle stomper

i'm a puddle stomper

i'm a puddle stomper

and you're a sponge

and you're a sponge

and you're a sponge

and you're a sponge

and you're a sponge

i'm a puddle stomper now

i'm a puddle stomper

i'm a puddle stomper

and you're a sponge

and you're a

i'm a puddle stomper
