The Date I Tried To Leave (Rehearsal Version) Lyrics

I took it to the roller rink
I took it to the thirteen coins
And I bought you some fuzzy drinks
With a lime and a twist and shit
And you got the skipper's platter
So, drop trou for me, you bitch
Drop trou for me
You hair-sprayed whore
Drop trou for me
You fucking bore
Your mother said you'd do it
Your brother gave me permission

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

This song is very bass heavy near the start, but clearly is a parody of Soundgarden’s 1994 single, “The Day I Tried To Live”

Cornell is trying to get laid, but the date he is with is not actually doing it.
