Get Up Kids, The - Ten Minutes Lyrics






Ten minutes to downtown
Is ten minutes too far
When my friends all say I'm crazy
Maybe I'm being selfish
(Maybe I'm being selfish)
Maybe I'm just scared
(Maybe I'm just scared)
Don't be gone when I get home
I need you there

If I had to explain it
I wouldn't know where to start
It's like you're falling in love while I just fall apart

Ten minutes to downtown
Is ten minutes too far
When my heart is saying, "You're crazy"
Maybe things are getting better
(Maybe things are getting better)
Maybe things aren't so bad
(Maybe things aren't so bad)
Don't be gone when I get home
You're all I have

If I had to explain it
I wouldn't know where to start
It's like you're falling in love while I just fall apart

Pockets empty
How can you tell me that everything will work out?
A pointless fight when you're always right
And everything will work out
It works out

Sometimes, I miss you more
Whenever I'm at home
I've been home all summer
Now, I'm leaving you alone

Pockets empty
How can you tell me that everything will work out?
A pointless fight when you're always right
And everything will work out
Everything will work out
Everything will work out

    Ten minutes to downtown
    Is ten minutes too far?
    When my friends all say I'm crazy
    Maybe I'm being selfish
    Maybe I'm just scared

    Don't be gone when I get home, I need you there

    If I had to explain it
    I wouldn't know where to start
    It's like you're falling in love while I just fall apart

    Ten minutes to downtown
    Is ten minutes too far?
    When my heart is saying you're crazy
    Maybe things are getting better
    Maybe things aren't so bad

    Don't be gone when I get home, you're all I have

    If I had to explain it
    I wouldn't know where to start
    It's like you're falling in love while I just fall apart

    Pockets empty
    How can you tell me that everything will work out?
    A pointless fight 
    When you're always right and everything will work out
    It works out

    Sometimes I miss you more
    Whenever I'm at home
    I've been home all summer
    Now I'm leaving you alone

    Pockets empty
    How can you tell me that everything will work out?
    A pointless fight 
    When you're always right and everything will work out
    Everything will work out
    Everything will work out

    Q U A C K

  4. K.... L....

    I was in 7th grade when this song came out and and used to ride bmx and heard the song in a props road fools video part I liked it alot and downloaded the album and more by them on Napster(Who remembers that shit haha)

  5. f.... ....

    QUACK! Is the best thing on this planet

  6. O.... I....

    This song must have inspired the early 2000s emo scene

    O.... I....

    Big Smoke Ay Smoke what u want?

  7. E.... D....

    Quack videos

  8. R.... A....

    Anyone coming from Spanish class?

  9. E.... G....

    People from Quack - 93%

    People from Forza Horizon 3 - 5%

    People who just know this song and listen to good music - 2%

    Im a part of that last one 😉

  10. k.... ....

    i remember constantly playing this in 8th grade language arts for vocab lol

  11. e.... ....

    The cuckoldry, one-itis, and beta-holism in so much of this music of this era is astoundingly apparent in hindsight now. It's no wonder guys that wrote these kind of lyrics and tunes were unbelivably love-sick and frustrated....

  12. C.... Z....

    It works out

  13. M.... ....

    Lots of people here from quack while i just know about this song

  14. U.... B....

    Amped, maaaddd throwback

  15. L.... U....

    real emocore

  16. K.... ....

    Here from FH3

  17. S.... D....

    "It's like you're falling in love while I just fall apart."

  18. M.... 7....

    Comments:
    99% - Quack
    3% - Forza Horizon 3
    1% - Amped

  19. D.... P....

    My taste in music brought me here

  20. S.... H....

    Now I see where Ryan got his shit (Yellowcard)0

  21. g.... g....

    quack, muthas! jk im a amped kid

  22. S.... ....

    I remember buying this when it came out. It was a huge step down from their early stuff, and I didn't like that they took out all the angular post-hc and replaced it with indie-pop. Still nowhere near as egregious as the Hot Topic dreck that came to define emo a few years later though.

    Ten minutes to downtown
    Is ten minutes too far?
    When my friends all say I'm crazy
    Maybe I'm being selfish
    Maybe I'm just scared
    Don't be gone when I get home, I need you there
    If I had to explain it
    I wouldn't know where to start
    It's like you're falling in love while I just fall apart
    Ten minutes to downtown
    Is ten minutes too far?
    When my heart is saying you're crazy
    Maybe things are getting better
    Maybe things aren't so bad
    Don't be gone when I get home, you're all I have
    If I had to explain it
    I wouldn't know where to start
    It's like you're falling in love while I just fall apart
    Pockets empty
    How can you tell me that everything will work out?
    A pointless fight
    When you're always right and everything will work out
    It works out
    Sometimes I miss you more
    Whenever I'm at home
    I've been home all summer
    Now I'm leaving you alone
    Pockets empty
    How can you tell me that everything will work out?
    A pointless fight
    When you're always right and everything will work out
    Everything will work out
    Everything will work out

    When my friends all say I'm crazy,

    If I had to explain it I wouldn't know were to start
    It's like you're falling in love, while I just fall apart
    Ten minutes to downtown is ten minutes too far
    When my heart is saying you're crazy maybe things are getting better, maybe
    Things aren't so bad
    Don't be gone when I get home, you're all I have
    If I had to explain it,
    I wouldn't know where to start
    Its like you're falling in love while I just fall apart
    Pockets empty, how can you tell me
    That everything will work out
    A pointless fight when you're always right
    And everything will work out
    Sometimes, I miss you more whenever I'm at home
    I've been home all summer, now I'm leaving you alone
    Pockets empty, how can you tell me that everything will work out
    A pointless fight when you're always right and
    Everything will work out

  46. j.... d....

    Forza Horizon 3 brought me here

  47. R.... B....

    Amped and Forza Horizon 3

    R.... B....

    Heard this song on Horizon 3. This song shot me right into nostalgia.

    R.... B....

    Which station?

    R.... B....

    Vagrant Records, I think.

    R.... B....

    a mediocre pencil sharpener yup, it was on Vagrant Records radio.

  48. H.... S....

    Get ready for the Horizon Festival ;)
    Forza Horizon 3 - Vagrant Records Radio

    H.... S....

    exactly .. ultra hype for this game

  49. J.... D....

    one of the best songs ever

  50. C.... C....

    this band sucks-kirby

  51. B.... T....

    has anyone done a cover of this song?

  52. A.... N....

    this just brought back the best memories!!!

  53. T.... h....

    that Spanish thingy with the quack duck brought me here

  54. C.... T....

    Voces online Spanish brought me here

    C.... T....

    Aka Quack

    C.... T....

    +Defender Of Faith Hess same

    C.... T....

    +Defender Of Faith SAME

  55. M.... S....

    this song makes me think of the relationship between me and my younger sister in 2007

    M.... S....

    Umm...incest?

    M.... S....

    yeah seriously wtf?

    M.... S....

    his hairstyle explains everything

    M.... S....

    i think theres a serious problem with ppl here thinking lots of songs have got to be about sex when they dont need to be taken that way. Some people think the offspring no brakes is about sex just because it says "faster now"

    M.... S....

    It has nothing to do with the song. Just the way u worded it was kinda weird

  56. T.... K....

    What is "quack" ?

  69. J.... N....

  70. J.... M....

    For everyone in the comments... QUACK! Is a show that is shown in a lot of Spanish classes, it's just a whole bunch of old movies with really bad voice overs. I watch the show in my Spanish 1 class, and it is really annoying. The only thing I like about it is this song, which they play in the title sequence.

    J.... M....

    Language Arts also, or is that just my district

    J.... M....

    Elijah Garcia nah us too

  74. N.... K....

    So f%&#ing nostalgic.

  75. E.... R....

  77. m.... ....

    the hell is quack

    m.... ....

    Yeah I'm on the same level as you. I think it's some sort of genocidal cult.

    m.... ....

    Geoff It's a Spanish learning video series. This is the theme.

  78. P.... ....
