HIDDEN ERROR: Usage of "size" is not recognized
Millencolin is a punk rock band that was formed in October 1992 by Nikola Sarcevic, Mathias Färm, and Erik Ohlsson in Örebro, Sweden. In early 1993, drummer Fredrik Larzon joined the band. The name Millencolin is derived from the skateboard trick "melancholy".
History
The original lineup, consisting of Sarcevic (vocals & bass), Ohlsson (guitar), and Färm (drums), released their first demo tape, Goofy, in early 1993. Soon afterwards, Larzon joined the band to play drums, allowing Färm to perform as the second guitarist. In the summer of 1993, they recorded a second demo tape, Melack. The band sent the tape to Burning Heart Records, a new record label formed earlier that year. They signed Millencolin to do a CD single, which culminated in the release of Use Your Nose in November 1993. Success of the single prompted Burning Heart to sign the band to release a full album. In July 1994, the band released Skauch, initially planned to be a single for their new album. However, the band decided to record four cover songs as well and released it as an EP instead. They put out their first major release, Tiny Tunes, in 1994. The recording and mixing of the album took two weeks. Legal trouble with Warner Brothers over the title and cover artwork of the album led the band to re-release it in 1996 under the name Same Old Tunes.

by: MillencolinHey, what the hell do you want me to do? Hey, does it
look like I'm static to you? Well, you might look twice
cause I'm moving.
OK, you see that I can walk which is good, but still you're
trying to make me talk like you would. Your intention's
nice, you're improving.
For all you know you're doing fine, but I guess it shows
shows that even jewelry that's fake do shine.
So shut your mouth now big boy, I'm just myself not your
toy. It's in my nature to be changing.
Now is it so hard to see? You can not make me to be
someone who never will be changing.
So what the hell do you want me to say? Another halting
rhyme, another cliche. Well, you might be right this one
time. You take for granted I'm your servant subdued. It
doesn't make sense to me, but to you. So here's one
last bright make shift rhyme.
For all you know I'm just a fool, but I guess that shows
that you can not judge the dog just by it's drool.
I'm losing you for a big smile on my face. You're nothing
new and not hard to replace. I'm losing you but I'm not
losing ground.
So Peekaboo! And you won't be around.
Cause I change with time and that's not a crime.
Someone like you can not derange me. Yeah, I change
with time and that's not a crime.
