Story Behind the Song
Snap was written at a time in my life where I just really didn't care what happened to me. I was just blindly happy, even if someone was kicking me in the teeth.
It's a fun song with little depth, but still a certain quality that is easy to identify with.
Lyrics
Turn off the radio
Don't wanna listen to the DJ - Go on
Took a ride to the corner store
To get myself a new raincoat - Go on
Kicked my car into overdrive
To get my mind off the back seat - Go on
Got there ten minutes late
Got the heat from a blue blood - Go on
Stickin' to my naked eye
I don't even wanna try
Think you're all the special type
But you're not worth all the hype
Shifty sifting oranges
He washed dirty dishes
Breaking down the locked doors
Mopping up the dirty floors
Too late, too bad, two bridges to burn
It's not good, it's not bad, love all of each one
What's right? What's wrong? What's left? What's gone?
Back door
Back up
Back beat
snap
back
down
Turned on my favorite girl
To see how close that I could get to her - Go on
Kicked out of my own house.
Girls don't like it when you kill their cat - Go on
Drove to my parents house.
Thought that I could get a free meal - Go on
Turned out, my dad flipped out
So I gave the guy the finger - Go on
Too late, too bad, two bridges to burn
It's not good, it's not bad, love all of each one
What's right? What's wrong? What's left? What's gone?
Back door
Back up
Back beat
snap
back
down
No matter how hard I try
I can not seem to cry
I don't care, look at me -
The epitome of apathy
Too late, too bad, two bridges to burn
It's not good, it's not bad, love all of each one
What's right? What's wrong? What's left? What's gone?
Back door
Back up
Back beat
Snap...
Back down.
