Lyrics for Josie as interpreted by ScreamingInfidelity

Josie Lyrics
Yeah, my girlfriend takes me home when I'm too drunk to drive
And she doesn't get all jealous when I hang out with the guys
She laughs at my dumb jokes when no one does
She brings me mexican food from Sombrero's just because
(Yeah, just because)

And my girlfriend likes U.L. and D.H.C.
And she's so smart and independent, I don't think she needs me
Quite half as much as I know I need her
I wonder why there's not another guy that she'd prefer

And when I feel like giving up
Like my world is falling down

I show up at 3am
She's still up watching Vacation, and I
See her pretty face
It takes me away to a better place and


I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine


Yeah, my girlfriend takes collect calls from the road
And it doesn't seem to matter that I'm lacking in the bulge
She laughs at my dumb jokes when no one does
She brings me mexican food from Sombrero's just because

And when I feel like giving up
Like my world is falling down

I show up at 3am
She's still up watching Vacation, and I
See her pretty face
It takes me away to a better place and


I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine.
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine.
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine.
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine.

I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine.
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine.
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine.
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine.

This is one of my favourite songs by them! it's about what Mark would describe as his perfect girl. One of the reasons I love this song so much is because my boyfriend changed his screen name on ICQ to Josie's girlfriend :)

best blink songs: #1 Josie #2 Man Overboard #3 Carousel...
yeah, i became josie for my last boyfriend... this is such a great song.
i just wish all the trendy 12-year-olds didn't hop on the blink bandwagon. they smothered all of the real blink fans out of enjoying blink as much.

how does being 12 years old automatically make you trendy? true, it was only a year ago (i'm 13) that i finally got into decent music, but be happy for some of them, like me, who have looked for better music thanks to blink.
ANYway. this is the oldest blink video i've seen, sadly... i liked it a lot. it felt weird to see scott on tv. the song is so nice. i'm a girl, so i can't feel EXACTLY that way, but i still love it to pieces. blink is my all-time favorite.

this is to the people who were wondering who "Josie" really is... Josie is not a specific person, Mark just wrote the song when he was single about what he wanted his next girlfriend to be like. she's Mark's ideal girl. i think why he wrote about her in "Online Songs" is because no matter how ideal certain people seem to you, relationships usually don't work out the way you want them to... especially when you're a teenager.
