Weezer - Lullaby For Wayne Lyrics






Class of 1988
Never thought you’d graduate
Playing with your guns all day
If only they could see you now
How you’ve learned to shoot so well
They wouldn’t laugh that way

Wayne you know it’s true
There’s nothing you can do
So put them guns away

All of your friends are through
They’ve given up what they tried to do
See now how happy they are
Each with a new lease on life
A brand new car, a low mileage wife
Put down them guns and fall into line

Wayne you know it’s true
There’s nothing you can do
So put them guns away
Who cares what’s wrong or right
So please give up the fight
Put them guns away

All your friends are through
There’s nothing you can do
So put them guns away

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo...
Wayne you know you’re in too deep
All your friends have gone to sleep
Wayne you know you’re in too deep

All your friends are through
There’s nothing you can do
So put them guns away
Wayne you know it’s true
There’s nothing you can do
So put them guns away
Who cares what’s wrong or right
So please give up the fight
And put them guns away

Weezer Lullaby For Wayne Comments
  1. D.... P....

    holy shit those first 8 seconds bring back memories

  2. R.... M....

    This song is not about Wayne Lo or a school shooting at all, no one in the band has stated that. Taking a few seconds to skim the lyrics would be enough to make you aware of that.

    It's about all your friends growing up, getting 9 to 5 jobs and getting married, and you ~sticking to your guns~ and doing what you're passionate about even though everyone around you is telling you to "fall into line" and succumb to adulthood.

  3. I.... ....

    A brand new car a low mileage wife! XD

  4. I.... ....

    Good song
    The 'who cares what's wrong or right part'
    and a lot the message in here though
    lol

  5. E.... B....

    This song proves how influential weezer was to pop punk

  6. D.... P....

    is that you john wayne
    is this me

    My name is Anthony Daniel Caserta.… ROCK ON👍💚💯🇺🇸

  9. 4.... s....

    Favorite weezer song

  10. v.... ....

    𝐖𝐀𝐘𝐍𝐄 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐊𝐍𝐎𝐖 𝐈𝐓'𝐒 𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐄

  11. D.... D....

    Phat neck pickup tone

  12. k.... s....

    I love the song, but why is the bit rate so low. it makes it sound like crap

    k.... s....

    kyle someguy Its a pre release demo what did you expect

  13. P.... S....

    I know it's a dark topic, but I reckon this song could've been made the soundtrack for Burnout 3 Takedown. That's just the sort of vibe I get from this awesome song. Like I said though, it's a dark and actually very sad topic...

  14. j.... p....

    i wish they kept these songs in the blue album

    j.... p....

    nah for this one but I wish they had kept Paperface

  15. P.... 7....

    Fun fact this song is bout Wayne lo, a school shooter who shot 6 people, killing 2 in Simon rock college in the 90's

    P.... 7....

    More like a background fact not really a fun fact

    P.... 7....

    Andy ??? Hahaha

    P.... 7....

    its kickz I was not making a joke 😂

    P.... 7....

    @Andy ??? I know but is see the irony haha

    P.... 7....

    It's not about Wayne Lo at all, no one in the band has stated that.

    It's about all your friends growing up, getting 9 to 5 jobs and getting married, and you ~sticking to your guns~ and doing what you're passionate about even though everyone around you is telling you to "fall into line" and succumb to adulthood.

    It has nothing to do with Wayne Lo or a school shooting.

  16. D.... A....

    OKAY BITCH, IT'S WEEZER AND IT'S WEEZY.

    D.... A....

    NEVER AGAIN. NEVER.

  17. M.... P....

    it is 1 02 AM and I am literally talking alone on a youtube comment section. i feel so 2000s btw

    M.... P....

    +Val Valentines was yesterday up in the UK, asked a girl out she said we could hang out later...

    M.... P....

    +Joseph Kent good luck!

    G.... F....

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3V0gYGfugy4

    G.... F....

    @Pointblankmos what lol XD

  19. T.... Q....

    This song gets me pumped

    T.... Q....

    This song makes me want to pumped up the kicks

  20. C.... M....

    I can't believe how fantastic this song is.

    C.... M....

    +Connor Callaghan So true! I wish people really new more about the B side of the Blue Album, had so many great songs in it.

  21. r.... ....

    This song is not about Wayne Lo.

    r.... ....

    No it’s not you pleb

    r.... ....

    ACE No it was originally about Pat but it was changed most likely to be about Wayne Lo

    r.... ....

    yes yeah *Pat Finn, not to be confused for Pat Wilson the drummer

    r.... ....

    It's not about Pat Finn either; that version came later. And no, no version of the song is about Wayne Lo.

  22. R.... G....

    Definatley weezers most underrated.

  23. m.... ....

    240p we meet again. THIS SONG FUCKING SUCKS DICK ARSE .

    m.... ....

    lowering the video quality improves the audio stream tho

  24. D.... ....

    This song proves that Weezer could have been a skate punk band. This song is extremely good, maybe my favorite Weezer B-Side

    D.... ....

    I just think of it as a skate song just because of the music, and it makes me want to skate board right now, but hey, it's only my opinion

    D.... ....

    It's not though, skate punk is a term that's used to define a specific sound. Just because you want to re-appropriate it doesn't mean you can.

    You could call this bebop jazz if you wanted, but it's not.

    D.... ....

    +DaveMac95 Hey if you want to see a skate'boarding Weezer, Watch the Memories music video.

    D.... ....

    +TIMExBANDIT Just because you say it's not skate punk doesn't mean it's not skate punk, I also get a skate vibe from this song and I would consider it slightly skate punk at the least.

    D.... ....

    i think genre labels kill discussion and fandoms, whenever ANYONE says "x band is x genre" there is ALWAYS someone saying "u m ackshuly no" can't we just think of each band as good in their own way and taking inspiration from lots of other places

  25. T.... ....

    ... such a skateboarding song. Meh, I don't like it. But I'll acknowledge it's OK.

    T.... ....

    TheNumberOneGuyDude I bet you roller blade

  26. n.... ....

    It's about Wayne Lo.

  27. A.... M....
