Why, Oh, Why?

I'm lookin' at you
After it's all over
And I don't feel quite the same

That look in your eye
Says you don't want me anymore
Even though you are to blame

Why oh why did this have to happen
Why did you do me this way?

(Tell me why)
You had to leave me all alone
(Tell me why)
I had to end it all in song
(Tell me why)
You ran away with my best friend
Tell me why I still love you.

I came across an old love letter
And here's what you had to say:

"Would you please pick up a gallon of milk
while you're shopping at the store?"

What? That's not it...

Ah, here it is. You said:
"I love you so, you're everything to me.
I could love no other one".

Yeah, right.

Except for maybe, like I said, my best friend
And my brother and my dad, and my other brother, and his best
friend, and that guy's brother as well, and that one guy that used
to come and mow our lawn every Saturday that had a cool tattoo of a
dragon on his shoulder and it was really neat and stuff...

(Tell me why)
You slept with everyone but me
(Tell me why)
I'm out of words that rhyme with me
(Tell me why)
You still owe me 3 bucks for that milk
Tell me why I still love you.

Why did you leave me alone...
in the cold, in the darkness?
Chained like a dog to the wall in the basement
"Hey, who turned out the lights?"

Why did you hurt me so bad?
Do you have no remorse?
When you broke both of my shins with a hammer?
"Ow, my fibula!"

Tell me why.

Tell me why I still love you.
Even though you're a bitch.
Even though you're a psycho.
Even though you should DIE
I still love you.

Fun Fact(s) about "Why, Oh, Why?"

This song was one of the earlier songs written by The J. There's a really old recording of it somewhere with Josh on lead vocals back when "Psychostick" was known as "Asinine."
