I need a change
Not to imitate, but to irritate
All the ones who hate
Maybe late
Always seem to get wrong date
Well I guess it's fate

I live in a cemetery
Full of good will and integrity
I have no specialty

Here's your warning
I'll give you click click boom

I live in a cemetery
I need a change
Not to imitate, but to irritate

I live in a cemetery
I need a change
Not to imitate, but to irritate

[Instrumental]

I live in a cemetery
I need a change
Not to imitate, but to irritate

I live in a cemetery
I need a change
Not to imitate, but to irritate

I live in a cemetery
I need a change
Not to imitate, but to irritate...

    General Comment:Joel didn't sing this song. Benji did. If you listen to both of the songs one right after the other, there isn't much of a difference. I'm not sure about the meaning of this song, though. Any opinions?

    General Comment:Damn, you're comparing Joel to Daniel Johns, Mr. "I can go from demonic voice to girly voice in a split second?" Well whatever floats your boat.

    General Comment:well this shouldn't be under gc since it's not their lyrics. anyways i like the cover in that it's always nice when a band covers another out of respect. however, anyone who thinks joel sings it better than daniel johns is deaf. he sound constipated in comparison. even if you're "gc-4-life", if you've heard the original, you know daniel's voice owns. but again, respect to gc for this cover.
