Kurt sings and plays a killer lead guitar on this riff-driven rocker about a guy who thinks his girl loves him, then finds out he's been duped. "Too late, I finally see it, That girl's a pain in the ass." The horn guys wail on this one, too. If you stay in your seat when this song plays, it's time to reserve a spot at Forest Lawn.
lyrics
Oh boy, today is my birthday,
Can't wait, to be with my girl,
Last night, she told me she loved me,
All day, my head’s in a whirl,
Hit a bar with a couple of work friends,
On the way to my party tonight,
But there's my girl, puttin' a lip-lock,
On some dude, and she's holdin' on tight,
Too late, I finally see it,
That girl's a pain in the ass,
Don’t know, why I believed her,
She's got no love, she’s got no class,
Supposed to be my special day,
I was her man, now she's turned me away,
That girl's a total disgrace,
Gonna front her, and get into her face,
Oh man, I can't believe it,
That girl's been livin' a lie,
Told me, I was her dream guy,
Don’t think, I’ll ever know why,
Supposed to be my special day,
I was her man, now she's turned me away,
That girl's a total disgrace,
Gonna front her, and get into her face,
Too late, I finally see it,
That girl's a pain in the ass,
Don’t know, why I believed her,
She's got no love, she’s got no class,
Too late, I finally see it,
That girl's a pain in the ass,
Don’t know, why I believed her,
She's got no love, she’s got no class,
Oh boy, today is my birthday,
Oh boy, today is my birthday,
Oh boy, today is my birthday,
Oh boy, today is my birthday,
Yeah.
