You Didnt Know Me When Lyrics

    There's a few things i haven't told you
    And before you hear them from someone else
    To clear up misconceptions
    I'd rather tell you myself
    There was a time

    I rode a roller coaster
    From coney island to key west
    I held on with one finger
    So the other ten could rest
    It may be hard to believe
    Hard to comprehend
    But baby, you didn't know me when

    I played third chair trombone
    In an out-of-work polka band
    We looked for gigs on ships
    In countries that had no land
    It may be hard to believe
    We hit the top ten
    But baby, you didn't know me when

    If you want a resume i'll put it in writing
    It's only good for a day and the contents are frightening

    I gave long-winded speeches
    I was a head-of-state
    I wrote an endless novel
    Called see jane love and hate
    It may be hard to believe
    I'm reticent
    But baby, you didn't know me when
