[A/N: I think you're all aware of the fact that I don't like Mandah/Mandy/Willa/Whatever she likes to call herself, but then I was listening to this song about Dexter Holland (singer in the Offspring for you who don't know)'s wife. I've read the lyrics, I've heard the song oh, about a billion times (and so has my neighbors) but first now it dawned to me. Dexter is obviously happy in that kind of relationship so... what about Nick?]

Me & My Old Lady ~ The Offspring. Song can be found on Ixnay on the Hombre (highly recomended).

ME & MY OLD LADY

"Me and my old lady

Lay in bed all day

And when I say I love her

Well she rolls the other way"

Broke up again. I have to learn to say that I'm sorry. I have to learn to not be so stubborn. I know this is hurting her. It was such a stupid fight anyway. We both said things we didn't mean...

"But really she don't mean it

Everything she says

Still if I believe in love

There's nothing wrong

There's nothing wrong with my head"

I love her. Why do we keep fighting like this anyway? We just end up saying things we don't mean and hurting each other. Like all those things people say about her. God it makes me so mad... Not even half of it is true. So we fight? Which couple doesn't? Yes, it might get a little out of hand at times, but it's not like we've ever seriously hurt each other. Yeah it hurts but... I need her.

"Me and my old lady

Sit and sip on wine

And when she says she loves me

Well I say that love is blind"

I can't believe there are so many that actually believes that crap. I guess they believe what they want to believe. They always do. Like we, the Backstreet Boys, are so perfect anyway? I just wish they'd leave her alone...

"But really I don't mean it

Everything I say

Still if she believes in love

There's nothing wrong

There's nothing wrong with her head"

I've done my best to make them stop believe in all the lies. But what can I really do? Stand up in an interview, ignore everyone else and just tell everybody the truth? No, then I'd be rude, and I'd be lying too. Why do they have to be so stubborn about this? Is it cause I'm "the baby"? Don't they think I can take care of myself? I want it like this, but without all the lies. If I just knew what to do...

"So what if we're making a scene now

You know she don't give a shit

When she's pawin' and grabbin' on me now

You know I don't mind a bit"

Ignore them won't help. I've tried that before. It just got worse, so much worse. They must have thought that I kept quiet cause it was the truth. I should have known better. I should have known that they'd make her the next Yoko. God, what would they think if we split up?

"It's all good and we

Ain't gonna change now

The world is unaware

So if you want go on and stare

Cause we don't care

She ain't no ball and chain

She ain't no ball and chain

She ain't no ball and chain"

What could I have done then? Never tell them until I got married? Yeah, here's my girlfriend of 10 years, we're getting married tomorrow, now go and buy our new record. Like if we're even going to be around for that long. And marriage... no, not in a long while. I love her but...

"Me and my old lady

Suck each other dry

And when in that position

I'm the luckiest man alive

Quenching our libidos

Passing time away"

I can take the blame for this one. It was just such a stupid fight. I love her after all...

"Now that we believe in love

There's nothing wrong

There's nothing wrong with our head"
