Josie
blink-182 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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 just because
Yeah, just because

And my girlfriend likes UL and DHC
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 3 AM, 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 just because

And when I feel like giving up
Like my world is falling down
I show up at 3 AM, 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
