Lyrics

Here's my story, sad but true
About a girl that I once knew
She broke my heart, I became unglued
It all started when she called me dude

Well today I leave the psycho ward
Cause my sentence did conclude:
I had killed a man with my bare hands
Because he called me dude

The jury said that I was insane
Temporally insane - brain strain
But now the doctors say I'm a.o.k
So I start my new life today

This story starts some years ago
As I vacationed by the sea
In the california sunshine
Just me & my baby

I was in love feeling sky high
When a big blonde lifeguard walked by
He looked at her, she looked at him -
I knew it was good bye

He took her by the hand, kicked sand in my face
She looked & laughed & said, "later dude!"
They were gone without a trace
And the waves echoed her laughter
And her words...yo later dude

Later that night I was in such a bad mood
Sittin' in a bar drinkin' hard, getting stewed
Thinkin' 'bout that girl & how 'bout I'd been screwed
When some guy walks in sits next to me & says
What's up dude!

I heard the word dude & I became unglued
Slowly I turned, step by step, inch by inch
And put my hands around his neck, and I squeezed..

Don't call me dude!

So that's how I got where I am
But this ain't where it ends
The doctors said they cured me
I said good bye to my crazy friends

I was smiling as I left that place
My life had been renewed
The guard at the gate, he stamped my pass
And he said, "yo later dude!"

Slowly I turned..
