Smash Mouth is an alternative rock band from San Jose, California that formed in 1994, the band comprises Steve Harwell (lead vocalist), Greg Camp (guitarist/songwriter), Paul De Lisle (bassist), and new drummer since early 2006, Jason Sutter (replacing Michael Urbano, who left due to creative differences). Their hit songs include "Walkin' on the Sun" (1997) and "All Star" (1999). Focused at times playing "neo-ska" music, the band has adopted retro styles spanning several decades of popular music, as well as performing covers of popular songs such as The Monkees' "I'm a Believer" and War's "Why Can't We Be Friends" as well as cult favorites such as ? and the Mysterians' "Can't Get Enough of You Baby" (though their version owes more to The Colourfield's interpretation; in fact, the band at first believed it was a Colourfield original). Smash Mouth's first album Fush Yu Mangcame out in June 1997. This album could be said to be "neo ska".

Pet Names Lyrics

Smash Mouth

Just when I thought everything would be okay
Just when I started to believe that everything was going my way
Out came the cloud from under my feet
Crashing back down to reality
You used to call me pumpkin now Im halloween
Remember when I used to be your jelly bean
You used to call me schnookums and shit like that
Now youre after me with a baseball bat
I remember when I used to be the king
Your honey sweety darling baby everything
I used to be your tall dark mystery man
Now Im just straight up history man
Just when I thought everything would be alright
Just when I started to believe that everything was out of sight
You left me with nothing but a scribbled note
That said I would no longer be your love boat
From here on out my pet name would be x
Your x your x your x
It used to be sugar then it turned into salt
I used to rock your world now Im standing on a fault line
Lying naked in a hail storm in the dark
Youre my little tornado and I am your trailer park
You used to call me names too cute to repeat
Like honey bunch hairy bear and piccolo peet
Goochy goochy goo gaga shit like that
Now youre after me screaming you dirty rat
I dont remember applying for a name change
So why is it youre calling me mister deranged
Psycopathic pornographic stinking drunk
Failing fast lying ass worthless punk
You used to call me sweety pie and baby doll
I guess another studs kicking in my stall
Youll probably call him superman or loverboy
Youll probably disregard him like a broken toy
Just when he thought everything was going his way
Just when he started to believe that everything was hunky dory
Hell look at that cloud that hes standing on
And with an itsy bitsy teeny little almost inaudible squeak
Hell notice
Its gone
From here on out his pet name would be x
Your x your x your x
Sweety pie?
No x
Honey bunch?
No x
Bubble butt?
No x
Pumpkin face?
