"Going Away To College (Live)"

[Verse 1: Mark Hoppus]
Please take me by the hand, it's so cold out tonight
I'll put blankets on the bed, but I won't turn out the light
Just don't forget to think about me and I won't forget you
"I'll write you once a week", she said
"Once a week", she said

[Verse 2: Mark Hoppus]
Why does it feel the same to fall in love or break it off?
And if young love is just a game, then I must've missed the kickoff
Don't depend on me to ever follow through on anything but
I'd go through hell for you and

[Chorus: Mark Hoppus and Tom DeLonge]
I haven't been this scared in a long time
And I'm so unprepared, so here's your valentine
Bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody
This world's an ugly place but you're so beautiful Skylee

[Verse 3: Mark Hoppus]
And I'll think about the times you kissed me after class and
You put up with my friends, I acted like an ass
I'd ditch my lecture to watch the girls play soccer
Is my picture still hanging in your locker?

[Speech]
Tom: Hey Mark
Mark: Hey, if you guys are anything like me, you like to dress up in your mother's underwear and walk around the house trying to seduce your father. What? Just me?
Tom: I'm like you, I try to seduce your dad
Mark: Remember, that one time when I walked over to your house and your brother was there with the peanut butter smeared all over his wiener and he's all "Come here boy! Come here! Come here boy! Who likes the Skippy? Who likes the Skippy peanut butter?"
Tom: This song is really hard to play-
Mark: Give it up for Tom!
Tom: It's really hard to play. I would appreciate it if you don't listen to me for the next two and a half minutes, alright? Shut the fuck up!
