LYRICS:
yeah this song is dedicated
(this is good charlotte)
to every kid who ever got picked last in gym class
this is for you
to every kid who never had a date to no school dance
this is for you
to everyone who ever's been called a freak
this is for you
here we.. what?
here we gooooo

like the time in school when we got free lunch
and the cool kids beat us up
and the rich kids had convertibles
and we had to ride the bus
like the time we made the baseball team
but they still laughed at us
like the time that girl broke up with me
cause i wasn't cool enough. trick!

(chorus:)
things..  things...
little things, little things
they always hang around
little things, little things
they try to break me down
little things, little things
they just won't go away
little things, little things
make me who i am today
you wanna hate me now
but i won't stop now
cause i can't stop now

like the time mom went to that institute 
cause she was breakin down
like the car we had that wouldn't start
we had to walk to get around
and that same year on christmas eve
dad went to the store
we checked his room, his things were gone
and we didn't see him no more. dick!

and it always seems those little things 
they take the biggest part of me
and i know that those little things
they make the biggest part of me
break down..
i'm breakin down..
break down..
gotta maintain...
