Someone I Once Knew

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I was smoking a roundie

Thank god you found me

All by myself

And then you bounced through the door like nobody else

Hey you someone i once knew, sit your butt down

Hey you someone i once knew, sit your butt down

Watchin' my japanese tv

With my six string buddy

I was barely tickin'

And then you bounced through the door come alive and kickin'

Hey you someone i once knew, sit your butt down

Hey you someone i once knew, sit your butt down

You got brains, all the way down

You never changed

I just never got past

The ones you sit on

Hey you someone i once knew, sit your butt down

You got brains all the way down

You've never changed

I just never got past

Your little rock & roll ass

Shot bolt upright

When you mention the whole night

I was on the mend when

You let a smile crack

And it all came back

Hey you someone i once knew
