Moldy Peaches, The - Nothing Came Out Lyrics






Just because I don't say anything doesn't mean I don't like you.
I open my mouth and I try and I try, but no words came out.
Without 40 oz. of social skills, I'm just an ass in the crack of humanity.
I'm just a huge manatee... a huge manatee.

And besides, you're probably holding hands with some skinny, pretty girl that likes to talk about bands,
And all I wanna do is ride bikes with you and stay up late and watch cartoons.

Duck Tales, shirt tails, Talespin, Sailor Moon, GI Joe, Robotech, Ron Jeremy, Schmoo.

I wanna watch cartoons with you -- Josie and the Pussycats and Scooby-Doo.
I want you to watch cartoons with me -- He-Man, Voltron and Hong Kong Phooey.
I tried to ask you to your face but no words came out.
I put on my hood and walked away -- that doesn't mean I don't like you.

And besides, you're probably holding hands with some skinny, pretty girl that likes to talk about bands,
And all I wanna do is ride bikes with you and stay up late and maybe spoon.

Just because I don't say anything doesn't mean I don't like you.
No... I opened my mouth and I tried and I tried.
And besides, you're probably holding hands with some skinny, pretty girl that likes to talk about bands,
And all I wanna do is ride bikes with you and stay up late and watch cartoons.

I'm just your average Thundercats ho.

  18. s.... m....

    i hardly ever find myself commenting on videos since most are songs that i just listen to while drawing and the youtube window is minimized... anyway... i've never heard a more relatable song. and i really am into music, daily i discover lots of songs, but damn, i still remember the first time i heard "nothing came out"... it struck me in my heart. i mean, i'm a high schooler (not in usa, sadly). where i live there was never such a thing as hanging outside, you know, like in american movies. people in my homestate are mean and anxious (hello eastern europe), they dont really.. speak to each other, casually (trust me, i;ve been to us a few times already and people there are completely different, very friendly and open). so whenever i ask someone if they just want to hang with me, ride bikes, watch cartoons, just spend a weekend together and have a bunch of fun just like back in the day when we were kids... they treat me like a complete weirdo, hysterically point out how much a waste of time it is. 'yeah, cool, but i'm busy'. yeah, i know, middle school is over and it's a bit... too late for this kind of shit? like how often do you see people 14+ just hanging out together...?
    i'm nearly 18 and never really had a crush, like, 'omg i wanna bang them'. it was always 'hey, i wish we could just... spend time together. i wish they could come over and just watch cartoons with me till the morning comes'. gosh i'm such a kiddo

  19. T.... J....

    CAN I PLEASE RIDE MY BIKE WITH YOU.

  31. b.... ....

    "Só porque eu não disse nada, não significa que eu não gosto de você"...2015.

  32. F.... ....

    "I'm just a huge manatee..." pretty much how I feel everyday!

    F.... ....

    Sameee 😂

  33. M.... ....

    this is my love life right now... :C

  34. Y.... E....

    The intro is just like a song by pink floyd

  35. E.... C....

    I remember the first time I heard this song was years ago back in secondary school. Our teacher made us listen to this song and sing it. I didn't especially like it, and I had never heard it again ever since. And then today, I saw the word "manatee" written and I immediatly thought about that line "I'm just a huge manatee" so I googled the sentence and found the song ! And it's funny how the years flew by, how I started to listen to indie in the meantime, and how much I like this song today.

  36. L.... ....

    IM NOT FUCKING CRYING GET OUT OF MY ROOM

  37. R.... P....

    HELLO HERE I AM crying

  38. M.... P....

  40. l.... m....

    the phone ringing is so good

  41. T.... B....

    Am I the only one here to think the quality of this song is poor ? Guitar out of tune, voices going wrong etc...

    T.... B....

    it's low fidelity music to be fair

    T.... B....

    It’s meant to be...

    T.... B....

    T B
    That’s the point.
    It’s supposed to sound good in the sense that it’s bad.
    And an aesthetic.
    Like jokes that are funny because they’re bad.
    It’s a music movement meant to rebel against modern mainstream music.
    It’s meant to sound raw and convey true, unfiltered emotion. And real feeling aren’t as pretty. They’re shitty. They’re sad, they’re depressing, they’re beautiful, they’re poppies, they’re the sky, they’re a chipped mug of cold coffee on a winter afternoon

    T.... B....

    @Probably Buddha

    "They’re shitty. They’re sad, they’re depressing, they’re beautiful, they’re poppies, they’re the sky, they’re a chipped mug of cold coffee on a winter afternoon

  57. I.... S....

    Reminds me of Ween in a way.

    I.... S....

    While I don't disagree, I have to say The Moldy Peaches are to Ween, what The Black Keys are to The White Stripes, both good, but come on. Pepsi/Coke

    I.... S....

    Intellectual Solitude Productions Ween is amazing.

    I.... S....

    james giildenzopf Ween is truly amazing

  58. I.... l....

    I just didn't like how there were 2 guitar solos playing at once, made it sound like bad harmonics.

  59. T.... B....

    "but you're probably holding hands, with some skinny pretty girl that likes to talk about bands." breaks my heart everytime I hear that line

    r.... g....

    +Jeckson Alves it's not about the singing. It's about the groove, and meaning behind the words.

    r.... g....

    Theres more to life than Destiny's child and Metallica..

    r.... g....

    +Nate Smith Those two bands have nothing to do with each other.

    r.... g....

    Waaah, waaaah

  68. K.... N....

    "Just because I don't say anything doesn't mean I don't like you."

  69. K.... E....

  72. A.... ....

    the song was meh, but then that kickass recorder solo kicked in. fuck yyeaaah

  73. G.... A....

    no words came out

  74. E.... H....

    Been in love with my best friend for the better part of the past two years (that's him in my profile picture). We were talking one night, and he told me I should listen to this song because it "described him well". I looked it up and broke down crying. It's clear that he was sending me a message. He's really struggling right now, and is making excuses as to why we can't be together. So of course, I find myself breaking down yet again to this song. I just want to ride bikes with him. So simple. Is that too much to ask?

    E.... H....

    reading this broke my heart. hope things go well for you.

    E.... H....

    he looks to young to be tied down. sometimes its best to let people go.

    E.... H....

    how did this turn out?

    E.... H....

    Yeah it's been 3 years, what happened?

    E.... H....

    No, not asking for too much at all. Wish more people appreciated the simple things over the bullshit in life! Stay golden!

  75. J.... H....

    Does anybody know if this song has appeared in a film?

    J.... H....

    I think it was in Juno 

    J.... H....

    @Joshua Hubbard Yep, it was in Juno. "Anyone else but you"

    J.... H....

    +Language Study Buddy You're right. I meant that the band was in the soundtrack, but with Anyone else but you... hahaha

  76. P.... H....

    I was looking for ant-folk music to research on the genre, did I come to the right place?

    P.... H....

    What is this folk for ants?

    P.... H....

    Lol, ant-folk! I meant of course anti-folk. Ant folk? hmm, could be a new genre :D

    P.... H....

    Well they're more of a lo-fi band I think that's the kind of genre you're looking for :)

    P.... H....

    @Mars Bar These guys are like pioneers of anti-folk man o:

    P.... H....

    @Mars Bar yeah man, these guys are the epitome of anti-folk

  77. R.... M....

    7 years... I'm getting older

    R.... M....

    Regina Morais And now its been 10

    R.... M....

    hi getting older


    IM DAD-

  78. B.... O....

    For the first time in a while, I've listened to this song, and felt for the artist. I think that's lost on many people these days. Rather than identifying with the music and using it to exacerbate whatever emotions I'm experiencing, I feel for the artists who wrote this sad, sad song.

    That's not to say it's wrong to identify with music, but it's an interesting point of view.

    B.... O....

    its just a tune!

  79. B.... C....

    perfectly captures my love life

    B.... C....

    @sessi san haha you know it, follow me on google plus tho ;D

  80. p.... ....

    This song describes so much..

  81. m.... ....

    she sounds like a pre-puberty boy..

  82. j.... ....

    The ending was beautiful. 

  83. P.... C....

    Brill real music from real people and real lyrics. Not fake rant ant fakeing b music. Original beauty and how a guitar sounds if any one has ever tried to play one without a face wall of electronics. Just before you complain that is. \\\eh

  84. E.... a....

    I live for this song

  85. J.... F....

    But that rockin guitar solo man <3

    J.... F....

    Jesika Favuzza Yes, it’s pretty much Brian May without the rest of Queen.

  86. N.... H....

    is she laughing because of the phone or crying because of the lyrical content of the song

    N.... H....

    I think she's laughing because she forgot to disconnect the phone... :D

    N.... H....

    Why be so. What is your contribution. The last laugh is on you. I love you any way

  87. A.... R....

    Casey, i love you. always will bud.

  88. J.... L....

    Just because I don't say anything,
    Doesn't mean I don't like you <3

  89. m.... i....

    cracking rasping recorders forever!

  90. K.... P....

    that fucking guitar solo. so bad and yet so glorious. love the song

    K.... P....

    The only reason it sounds "bad"is because they deliberately played two solos on top of each other. If they had just kept the first track only (or the second one only) the solo would have still maintained its low-fi aesthetic while being a bit more pleasing to the common ear.
