All The Small Things

All the small things
True care, truth brings
I'll take, one lift
Your ride, best trip
Always,I know
You'll be at my show
Watching, waiting, commiserating
Say it aint so, I will not go,
Turn the lights off, carry me home
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Late night, come home
Work sucks, I know.
She left me roses by the stairs
Surprises let me know she cares
Say it aint so, I will not go,
Turn the lights off, carry me home
Say it aint so, I will not go,
Turn the lights off, carry me home
Keep your head still,
I'll be your thrill
The night will go on, my little windmill
Say it aint so, I will not go,
Turn the lights off, carry me home
Keep your head still,
I'll be your thrill
The night will go on, the night will go on
My little windmill
True care, truth brings
I'll take, one lift
Your ride, best trip
Always,I know
You'll be at my show
Watching, waiting, commiserating
Say it aint so, I will not go,
Turn the lights off, carry me home
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Late night, come home
Work sucks, I know.
She left me roses by the stairs
Surprises let me know she cares
Say it aint so, I will not go,
Turn the lights off, carry me home
Say it aint so, I will not go,
Turn the lights off, carry me home
Keep your head still,
I'll be your thrill
The night will go on, my little windmill
Say it aint so, I will not go,
Turn the lights off, carry me home
Keep your head still,
I'll be your thrill
The night will go on, the night will go on
My little windmill
All The Small Things
Released on Blink 182's 1999 album Enema of the State, "All The Small Things" stands as a defining track of the nu-metal and pop-punk era. The song features the band's signature power chords and driving rhythm section, layered with Travis Barker's energetic drumming and Tom DeLonge's melodic vocals. It explores themes of romantic idealism and the complexities of relationships, capturing the optimism and angst characteristic of late 90s youth culture. As a staple of the band's discography, the recording has become a cultural touchstone, influencing countless subsequent acts in the alternative rock genre and cementing Blink 182's legacy as pioneers of the sound.
