Marty's Diary Songtext

I've been and I hate it,
The girls don't like me,
The boys despise me!

... Saltwater blotted your pages again today.�

Jimmy's still laughing as he sits beneath the tree,
Who in the world is this pathetic boy supposed to be?
Gathers his friends around him so they all can take a look,
At the lonely boy's dark confessions in Marty's private book.

â??Dear Diary,
Jimmy stole my money again today,
What the hell would my parents say?
Supplementary:
I have no hope,
Everyone's against me and I can't cope,
The girls tell me I'm ugly,
The boys, they all shove me.
... Saltwater blotted your pages again today.�

Billy says, â??Did you punch him? And I want the truthâ?
Jimmy smiles and from his pocket he produces a tooth,
â??Of course,â? he laughed and passed it round, â??here is the proof!â?
â??When the headmaster finds out he'll hit the fucking roof!â?

â??Dear Diary,
Told the teacher I'd been punched in the head,
â??Don't go round telling tales' she said.
Supplementary:
Nobody in the world understands,
So I'll just take my life into my hands,
No one will miss me any way,
Things will just get worse if I stay,

... And I blotted your pages again today.�

A shock shot through Jimmy like he'd been hit by a car,
â??Do you think, maybe, we went a little too far?â?
So Jimmy went to the bathroom to take a look,
And when he got home, wrote in his private book:

â??Dear Diary,
Had the worst day of my life today,
Started out as fun, just a game to play,
Didn't mean no real harm.
I was wrong, but I glanced in his diary,
And it opened my eyes, it made me see,
That this loser boy was, in fact, a human being,
I've been so cruel, I've been a fool, but now I am seeing,
In my mind I could hear his sobs, his yells and his cries,
Thought now was the time to be a man and apologise.
Went into the bathroom to call a truce,
And there I found Marty hanging from a noose.

... Saltwater just blotted your pages today.�
