I talk to you every now and then
I never felt so alone again
I stop to think at a wishing well
My thoughts send me on a carousel

Here I am standing on my own
Not a motion from the telephone
I know not a reason why
Solitudes a reason to die

Just you wait and see (just you wait and see)
As school life is a
It is a woken dream
Aren't you feeling alone?

I guess its just another
I guess its just another
(I had sex with your mother) night alone

Now as I walk down the street
I need a job just to sleep in sheets
Buying food every once in a while
But not enough to purchase a smile

A tank of gas is a treasure to me
I know now that nothing is free
I talk to you every now and then
I never felt so alone again

Just you wait and see (just you wait and see)
As school life is a
It is a woken dream
Aren't you feeling alone?

I guess its just another
I guess its just another
Night alone

Thanks a lot you guys!
Hey kids, it's Satan. Thanks a lot for coming on down to
The show tonight. Hope you all had a great time. I know I did.
Those Blink fellas sure put on a kick ass show, huh. Hope to see
You all at the after show party. I'm gonna start sucking dicks
And squeezin' titties, maybe I can put my peepee in your mouth.
I love it when the kids come on over and I get, I have them suck
And kiss my peepee tenderly and gently. I like it when the kids sit
On my lap, and talk about unicorns and flowers and things like that.
Maybe I'll even suck their blood. See ya kids later!

Hey, how you guys doin' up in the back? Now from the top balcony,
Can I get an Amen? Now from the floor, can I get a Hallalujea? Now from
All these other assholes, can I get an oh yeah?

    General Comment:I think he's talking about touring in their early days when they could barely afford to get from gig to gig. "A tank of gas is a treasure to me." I also think he's talking about a girl that he misses while on tour.

    My Interpretation:This song is very relateable to me at the moment. I just graduated high school and I am about to start college. Life to me feels so strange and confusing like I am in the in between and life doesn't feel the same as it used to anymore.

    General Comment:Man they have so many songs, but this is possibly the best. All parts of my life it has had different meaning to me. Like when I was younger I concentrated more on the lonely part, cuz i had dealt with that, but after growing up and moving on my own it had even more meaning to me, trying to make it all alone and how looking back on your past and the relationships you have lost since highschool and trying to pay bills and living off ramen noodles. This song is amazing! Love it... They played it as one of their encores this past 09 tour and it was still amazing even ho tom replaced a few words with 'your mom' its fine, hes aloud to. <3

    General Comment:this songs about isolation from people, say a girl you were with and you talk to her now and then. lyrics make sense if you know what solitude means.

    i relate to it, im in a cover band and i love playing this song. its uh one of those fuckin feelings you cant explain.

    General Comment:The guitar rifs on Cheshire Cat are on another planet! Anyone who saw them live in the early days knows that Tom even had difficulty playing them. This band meant so much to me when I was 16. It was hard to see them progress into a band that I couldn't relate to anymore. Even Dude Ranch was the beginning of the end.
