The dashboard melted but we've still got the radio.

"What You've Got Doesn't Matter"

You could down 2 liters of orange soda
in under 3 minutes
I know it's not a quality one normally looks for in a girl
but my gosh, it means everything right now

When what you've got is
just a dragging down thing
you'll do anything
you'll do everything
When what you've got is
nothing beneficial
you'll do whatever it takes
you'll do anything to make it
better

No good
can come from this
it doesn't matter who we play
on the radio
no good
can come from this
it doesn't matter who we play
on the radio

No good
can come from
you and me, fighting and making up
or, making out
it doesn't matter
the words are interchangeable
no good
can come from this
no good, no, no good

It's reality
harsher than you thought it
would be
back, 10 years ago
the real world was
a tv show

It's reality
harsher than you thought it
would be
and, it's a quality
that I don't normally look for

but

when what you've got
is dragging you down
being detrimental to your health
when what you've got
is dragging you down
you try to find the best way
out, out, out
of your situation
of your complications
out, out, out
manipulations
and
splitting up never felt this good
or this right
so i give you one more kiss good night
and then i look forward to...

a girl who
can finish a sentence
and still
make some sense
and who is
reliable
and who is
exceptionable
and who can
hold their
smoke and their
liquor
i know it doesn't make much sense to you now
but it will in the long run cause

what you've got is
dragging dragging, dragging you down
it doesn't matter who we hear
on the radio
when what you've got is
dragging dragging, dragging you down
it doesn't matter what we play
on the radio
