Weezer’s ode to Mykel and Carli Allan.
It is a b-side to “Undone” and the first track from the 2004 deluxe edition of Weezer’s Blue Album. Per Weezerpedia, the song was originally known as “Please Pick Up the Phone” or “A Letter to Mykel and Carli (from a High School Friend).”
From a 1996 article...
[Verse 1]
Back in Wilson High
I had two best friends
They lived down the block
Where Eagle Court bends
One, she cared for my bones
Fed me ice cream cones
One, she cared for my happiness
Wouldn't leave me alone
[Verse 2]
Back in Wilson High
Said I had these two best friends
'Til the school bus came
And took my friends away
Now I'm left alone at home
To sit and think all day
[Chorus]
Hear you me, Mykel
Hear you me, Carli
[Verse 3]
They gave me a hat
The hat was awful rad
Wore it every day
Made my teacher mad
She tore it off my head
Now my head's well red
My head gets cold at night sometimes
But I can't be misled
[Chorus]
Hear you me, Mykel
Hear you me, Carli
She tore it off my head
Now my head's well red
My head gets cold at night sometimes
But I can't be misled
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 4]
Back in Wilson High
I had two best friends
They lived down the block
Where Eagle Court bends
'Til the school bus came
And took my friends away
Now I'm left alone at home
To sit and think all day
[Chorus]
Hear you me, Mykel
Hear you me, Carli
Oh, oh no, Mykel
Oh, oh no, Carli
Oh, oh
