Nerf Herder
We Opened For Weezer
[Verse 1]
We opened for Weezer, first time on the road
Some of us had never even been in the snow
Following along in our rental van
Back when Matt Sharp was still in the band called Weezer
Watching every night from the crowd
Saw a kid rush the stage and take the bass amp down
The Wawa ruling over 7-11
It was Nerdcore heaven in ’97 with

[Chorus]
Weezer, whoa-oa-oa
Singing “Say It Ain't So”
Whoa-oa-oa-oa
And the kids kept singing along
Whoa-oa-oa
In the Pittsburgh snow
Whoa-oa-oa-oa

[Verse 2]
We opened for Weezer, it was a dream come true
Our video was playing on the MTV2
Right about the time that Buffy started slaying
We were on tour and we were playing with Weezer
They were singing the blues
Pinkerton was getting some bad reviews
The guy from Rolling Stone didn’t like the songs
The guy from Rolling Stone was totally wrong about
[Chorus]
Weezer, whoa-oa-oa
Singing “Say It Ain't So”
Whoa-oa-oa-oa
And the kids kept singing along
Whoa-oa-oa
In the Pittsburgh snow
Whoa-oa-oa-oa

[Bridge]
The Chameleon in Lancaster, Asbury Park
The Metropol in Pittsburgh, Raleigh and Marrz
Winston-Salem, Charleston, Charlotte and Louisville (Louisville!)
The Flood Zone in Richmond, Norfolk, VA
Columbus, Ohio, The Newport Music Hall
The Rave in Milwaukee, the Barrymore Theatre in Madison
Wisconsin, Wisconsin, Wisconsin!

[Verse 3]
We opened for Weezer, first time on the road
Mid-Atlantic states watching every show
Following around in our rental van
Half Japanese girls singing "goddamn" with Weezer
Matt, Pat, Brian and Rivers
Butterfly song giving everyone shivers
Karl was rad, and Karl was gnarly
We were sitting backstage with Mykel and Carli and
[Chorus]
Weezer, whoa-oa-oa
Singing “Say It Ain’t So”
Whoa-oa-oa-oa
And the kids kept singing along
Whoa-oa-oa
In the Pittsburgh snow
Whoa-oa-oa-oa

[Breakdown]
And the kids say you might as well
(Jump, jump, jump, jump)
Whoa-oa-oa-oa
(Jump, jump, jump, jump)
Singing “Say It Ain’t So”
(Jump, jump, jump, jump)
Whoa-oa-oa-oa
(Jump, jump)
And the kids say you might as well
(Jump, jump, jump, jump)
Whoa-oa-oa-oa
(Jump, jump, jump, jump)
In the Pittsburgh snow
(Jump, jump, jump, jump)
Whoa-oa-oa-oa
(Jump)
And the kids say you might as well
[Outro]
(Jump, jump, jump, jump)
Singing “Say It Ain’t So”
(Jump, jump, jump, jump)
Singing “Say It Ain’t So”
(Jump, jump, jump)
Singing “Say It Ain’t So”
Might as well jump
