I don't have the words with me right now, but you can go to
http://www.wgrd.com and I'm sure they'd have them. It's a local radio
station where I live...Verve Pipe came from here.:)

Here are the lyrics to "The Freshmen" by The Verve Pipe
(as printed on their website)

When I was young, I knew everything
and she a punk who rarely ever took advice
Now I'm guilt stricken sobbing with my head on the floor
Stop a baby's breath and shoe full of rice

<CHORUS>
I can't be held responsible
Cause she was touching her face
I won't be held responsible
She fell in love in the first place
For the life of me, I can't remember
What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
For the life of me, I cannot believe
We'd ever die for these sins, we were merely freshmen

My best friend took a week's vacation to forget her
His girl took a week's worth of valium and slept
Now he's guilt stricken sobbing with his head on the floor
Thinks about her now and how he never really wept

<CHORUS>

(Aside note: according to MTV, the lead singer wrote this song before he
even joined the band "The Verve Pipe")

Hope this helps!

Stacey

We've tried to wash our hands of all this
We never talk of our lacking relationships
and how we're guilt stricken sobbing with our heads on the floor
We fell through the ice when we tried not to slip, we'd say

Yeah, well, you keep your story straight. Here Verve Pipe was considered
local. I'm from Grand Rapids and most of the bands in Michigan are
considered local. Ya know, if you'd like to correct me, there is a polite
way to do so rather than telling me to get my story straight.
