If I had the choice, I wouldn't raise my voice
I would be normal but extraordinary
l don't want to say, The things I have to say yeah
I don't wanna say things ordinary

This may put a smile on my face, time and time again
Reach into my mouth rip out my tongue, There's my only friend

Now I cannot talk,
These words are only thoughts
Taken down from my head to paper,
Written down for the band and also me,
we'll rehearse it and play it later

This may put a smile on my face, time and time again
Without words I'm lost for things to say, I want back my best friend

Barnicles and stripes,
Barnicles and stripes,
Barnicles and stripes,
Barnicles and stripes,
Barnicles and stripes,
Barnicles and stripes,
Barnicles and stripes,
Barnicles and stripes

These two words are normal but extraordinary,
Together mean nothing like tugboats and hairy

This may put a smile on my face, time and time again
Reach into my throat pull out my tongue,
There's my only friend

Hear me, Hear me

Hear me, Hear me

Hear me, Hear me

Barnicles and stripes,
Barnicles and stripes,
Barnicles and stripes,
Barnicles and stripes,
Barnicles and stripes,
Barnicles and stripes,
Barnicles and stripes,
Barnicles and stripes
