[Verse 1]

At quarter to nine

My plus-one decides

To make her arrival

I'll say what I like

At the end of the night

For social survival

[Verse 2]

I'll cut you to size

Then apologise

And make an impassioned plea

There were no dockin' parks

I had to walk in the dark

I wasn't myself, you see

[Chorus]

Here I am again, you know me

Here I am again, in for free

Missed the backin' band, you know me

Here I am again, in for free

[Verse 3]

I know I sound trite

But I get off on things like

"It's their sophomore album"

I don't know what I mean

But I'm a part of the scene

I know a guy from The Melvins

[Verse 4]

I came to do a review

I had to wait in the queue

I just can't believe it

Don't you know who I am?

I work the street paper scam

I can't believe you don't read me

[Chorus]

Here I am again, you know me

Here I am again, in for free

Missed the backin' band, you know me

Here I am again, in for free

[Outro]

Here I am again

Here I am again
