Joe Songtext
von AJR

I believed in God back in eighth grade
He could smoke an eighth on a school day
Remember when you laughed at my last name?
Now I go by Met, is that less lame
Of a last name?

I believed in God back in ′09
Always down to hang, he had no time, yeah
But in a couple of years, I'll be so out of here
I′ll have a lot of new friends and I won't even care

I don't ever think of you
I got too much stuff to do
Should′ve left you back in school
Joseph, do you think I′m-
I don't ever think of you
Look at all this stuff I do
I′ve played shows in Belarus
Now, Joe, do you think I'm cool?

Do you think I′m cool?


I could make a joke, but it feels strange
Every time she laughed, it would feel fake
But you could make her laugh in a real way
Yeah, I still use your jokes and they go great

It took a little while, but I found love (found love)
I thought you'd reply, you just thumbed up (thumbed up)
I play a lot of shows but you don′t come (don't come)
I don't even mind, this is so dumb, so dumb

I don′t ever think of you
I got too much stuff to do
Should′ve left you back in school
Joseph, do you think I'm-
I don′t ever think of you
Look at all this stuff I do
Probably not as much as you
Still, Joe, do you think I'm cool?

Do you think I′m cool?

I don't ever think of you
I don′t ever think of you
I don't ever think of you (I don't ever think of you)
I don′t ever think of you


I got friends all up the coast
Proud of all the songs I wrote
But I can′t take this backpack off
It comes with me where I go

Maybe I'll put out this song
And I won′t change your name at all
Maybe then you'll call me up
And you′ll tell me how cool I got
