Karaoké The Freshmen The Verve Pipe

When I was young

I knew everything and she a punk who rarely ever took advice

Now I'm guilt-stricken sobbin' with my head on the floor

Stoppin' baby's breath and a shoe full of rice now

Can't be held responsible 'cos she was touchin' her face

I won't be held responsible

She fell in love in the first place

For the life of me

I cannot remember what made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise

For the life of me

I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins

We were merely freshmen

My best friend took a week's vacation to forget her

His girl took a week's worth of Valium and slept

And now he's guilt-stricken sobbin' with his head on the floor

Thinks about her now and how he never really wept, he says

Can't be held responsible 'cos she was touchin' her face

I won't be held responsible

She fell in love in the first place

For the life of me

I cannot remember what made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise

For the life of me

I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins

We were merely freshmen

Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah

Hey yeah

Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah

We tried to wash our hands of all of this

We never talk of our lacking relationships

And how we're guilt-stricken sobbin' with our heads on the floor

We fell through the ice when we tried not to slip, we'd say

Can't be held responsible 'cos she was touchin' her face

And I won't be held responsible

She fell in love in the first place

For the life of me

I cannot remember what made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise

For the life of me

I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins

We were merely freshmen

For the life of me

I cannot remember what made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise

For the life of me

I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins

We were merely freshmen

We were merely freshmen

We were only freshmen
