Lyrics for Apple Shampoo as interpreted by ScreamingInfidelity

Apple Shampoo Lyrics
She didn't mean to deceive you, believe me
But sometimes the hardest part is conceiving

The good intentions that you had
Now only came to this
And although she saw the mark
The arrow missed

It isn't exciting reciting the stories
Of kind words turned hurting when routine get boring

Both getting tired of punk rock clubs
And both playing in punk rock bands
The start was something good
But some good things must end

And she said, "It could never survive
With such differing lives
One home, one out on tour again

We may never come back
The strike of a match
The candle's buring at both ends."

And now she knows too much
And I'm too fucked up
It's awkward trying to make my move

I'll pretend that I'm fine
Show up right on time
But I know I'll never be that cool

I never wanted to hold you back
I just wanted to hold on
But my chance is gone

I know / just where / I stand / a boy
Trapped in the body of a man and

I'll take what you're willing to give
And I'll teach myself to live
With a walk-on part of a background shot
From a movie I'm not in

She's so important
And I'm so retarded

And now I realize
I should have kissed you in L.A.
But I drove home all alone
As if I had a choice, anyway

Where are you coming from?
What are you running from?
Is it so hard to see?

And if you're feeling scared
Remember the time we shared
You know it meant everything (everything)
You know that it meant everything to me

You know that it meant everything to

It's amazing how many people think apple shampoo is the smell of her hair.. The only reason the song is named apple shampoo is because apple shampoo is deceiving In the sense that you want to eat it instead of wash with it.

"She didn't mean to deceive you, believe me
But sometimes the hardest part is conceiving"

The rest of the song is about a misunderstanding gone bad that ruins a relationship because too many hurtful things were said.
"It isn't exciting reciting the stories
Of kind words turned hurting when routine get boring"

The knowledge they had before about their differing lives was never considered because they loved each other so much.

"And she said, "It could never survive
With such differing lives
One home, one out on tour again

We may never come back
The strike of a match
The candle's buring at both ends.""

He realized he fucked up and just wants what they had before.

"And now I realize
I should have kissed you in L.A.
But I drove home all alone
As if I had a choice, anyway

And if you're feeling scared
Remember the time we shared
You know it meant everything (everything)
You know that it meant everything to me"

I just randomly decided to listen to this song on youtube after many years... surprise surprise, it's still good! I used to ADORE Blink 182 like, 8 years ago (RE: my thousands of old posts on blink 182 lyrics). I agree with what someone else said, it definately was a mature song for them at the time. It's a fun song
