Naming the Band

[Verse 1]
My parents were wrong, they named me "Tree"
It's probably the cruelest thing they ever did to me
I thought a long time about changing my name
But I found a better way to deal with my shame

[Pre-Chorus]
My buddies and me, we formed a band
We're gonna be famous, you understand?

[Chorus]
We're lookin' for a drummer
Or someone with a van
Our hair is getting longer
But the most important thing
Is naming the band
Naming the band, naming the band

[Verse 2]
We studied all the pictures in metal magazine
My Lycra makes me sing real high, my mom thinks it's obscene, yeah
We've got our own equipment and a great rehearsal space
Now, all we need's a heavy name to throw in your face

[Pre-Chorus]
My buddies and me, we formed a band
We're gonna be famous that's what we've planned

[Chorus]
Oh, we're still looking for a drummer
Or someone with a van
Our hair is getting longer
But the most important thing
Is naming the band
Naming the band, naming the band

[Bridge]
We were gonna call ourselves Elvis Hitler
But somebody beat us to the punch
Maybe we should be the Butthole Surfers
Or how 'bout Chuck 'n Lunch
Names with meaning and attitude aren't easy to find
We're hanging out asking each other, "How about?..."

[Chorus]
We should be writing tunes
And learning where to stand
Instead we're spending all our time
Doing nothing, nothing, nothing but
Naming the band, naming the band
Naming the band, naming the band
