Story Time Lyrics

Gather 'round kids, it's story time
And let me try to convince you this tale is not mine
This boy is special and he doesn't know
And that's just the way the story goes

Gather 'round kids, it's story time
And let me try to convince you this tale is not mine
This boy is special and he doesn't know
And that's just the way the story goes

Chapter one, an introduction, say 'hello' to the kid
Bit of an oddball, nobody saw the world quite like he did
He was a funny, happy child and quite really it varied
Despite the fact he has no memory of his parents happily married
He just remembers early mornings with the screaming and the fighting
Escaped his rotten spot by his continuous lying

And then he started his writing--stories, essays, and raps
Always trying to make his friends laugh (if they're going to class)
See he was smart, not ingenious, but he knew to get by
With minimal effort, it made him L-A-Z-Y
So when it came to higher learning, and he didn't know to study
He dropped out after two years, wasting a lot of daddy's money

And he feels just like a burden and a charity case
You can see the stress cover his face, he's out-of-place
He feels inadequate, so he's picking some fights
'Cause a life of minimum wage only thing in his sights
It's like-

Gather 'round kids, it's story time
And let me try to convince you this tale is not mine
This boy is special and he doesn't know
And that's just the way the story goes

Gather 'round kids, it's story time
And let me try to convince you this tale is not mine
This boy is special and he doesn't know
And that's just the way the story goes

Chapter two deals with the love life, or the lack thereof
Dying a virgin makes him nauseous but he keeps his head up
He met a girl that he loved but he got in too deep
And the opinions, they spill out from everyone that he meets
They tell him "Stay away from her, you're disrespecting yourself
"She's gonna marry that man." He tells'em that he needs help

But all they ever tell him is to just get over her
Little did he know after one year he'd wish he had never ever talked to her
And when she gets wasted she gets stupid, spilling drinks on her blouse
He laughs when she walks her pretty, drunk ass out of his house
Realize that she's not perfect, in fact very far from it
Brain knew it all along, just took his heart some time to confront it

Over seven hundred miles keeps the two of them apart
Not his fault that the girl straight owns a piece of his heart
Used to obsess on the daily, now he thinks that she's nothing
Used to lie right to his face each time she'd tell him she loves him

Gather 'round kids, it's story time
And let me try to convince you this tale is not mine
This boy is special and he doesn't know
And that's just the way the story goes

Gather 'round kids, it's story time
And let me try to convince you this tale is not mine
This boy is special and he doesn't know
And that's just the way the story goes

Chapter three about the arson, many bridges he burned
He says that he's a good friend and that, sadly, people never learn
And maybe he's right. Knows he's not the king of polite
But he doesn't talk shit about the guys he hangs with at night
And through the grapevine he learns a whole lot 'bout himself
From a guy he considered incredibly top-shelf

Been badmouthed for years and it caused him disgust
Another name on the list of males our hero can't trust
He dissasociates with those that diss his love and his brother
And he'll punch you in the jaw, say the wrong thing 'bout his mother
He let it compound, stayed home alone with the Gamecube
Came this close to posting emo shit onto YouTube

Rage, it would build, attitude like an ice cube
Spends too much time convincing you he's a good dude
"BFF" is bullshit and completely irrelevant
Too many "if's" in this world for anything that is permanent

Gather 'round kids, it's story time
And let me try to convince you this tale is not mine
This boy is special and he doesn't know
And that's just the way the story goes

Gather 'round kids, it's story time
And let me try to convince you this tale is not mine
This boy is special and he doesn't know
And that's just the way the story goes
