Blink 182 – Dammit

“Dammit” is the first single by Blink-182 from their second album Dude Ranch. It was the song which gave them their first mainstream success, peaking at #11 on the Billboard Modern Rock Track Chart.

It was sung by Mark Hoppus in the studio recording, but Tom DeLonge would usually sing the chorus in live performances. The song concerns a fictional breakup between the writer and his girlfriend, and was supposedly written in five minutes, on a broken guitar.

Blink 182 – Dammit – (2:45)
It’s alright / to tell me / what you think / about me
I won’t try / to argue / or hold it / against you
I know that / you’re leaving / you must have / your reasons
the season / is calling / and your pictures / are falling down

The steps that / I retrace / the sad look / on your face
the timing / and structure / did you hear / he fucked her?
a day late / a buck short / I’m writing / the report
on losing / and failing / when I move / I’m flailing now

And it’s happened once again
I’ll turn to a friend
someone that understands
sees through the master plan

But everybody’s gone
and I’ve been here for too long
to face this on my own
well I guess this is growing up
well I guess this is growing up

And maybe / I’ll see you / at a movie / sneak preview
you’ll show up / and walk by / on the arm / of that guy
and I’ll smile / and you’ll wave / we’ll pretend / it’s okay
the charade / it won’t last / when he’s gone / I won’t come back

And it’ll happen once again
you’ll turn to a friend
someone that understands
and sees through the master plan

But everybody’s gone
and you’ve been there for too long
to face this on your own
well I guess this is growing up

Well, I guess this is growing up
well, I guess this is growing up
well, I guess this is growing up
well, I guess this is growing up
well, I guess this is growing up
