THE MOTIVATION PROCLAMATION
The video was directed by Marc Webb and released in 2000.
Though Benji is shown singing it in the video, the part of the song that goes
"I wanna get myself out of this" is actually sung by Jimmie Haha of Jimmie's Chicken Shack.
Spend your lazy, endless crazy days, inside my head,
You're so selfish, you're not the only one who thinks he's dead
I'm paid to smile, now I'm on trial for what you think I said
But I never said that everything would be ok,
And I never said that we would live to see another day
(Chorus)
Motivate me, I wanna get myself out of this bed,
Captivate me, I want good thoughts inside of my head,
When I fall down would you come around and pick me right up off the ground
I'm realistic and narcissistic
You say I'm selfish and absurd
You try to change me, you try to save me
You say I'm gonna learn, I'm so blind,
I'm out of time, You're so unkind sometimes,
I never lied, I never lied, I never lied...
(Chorus)(Chorus Ends)
'Cause everything it'll be ok,
You know we're gonna live to see another day,
Yeah...yeah...
Motivate me...yeah, I wanna get my self out of this
Motivate me...yeah I wanna get my self out of this
Motivate me...yeah I wanna get my self out of this
Motivate me...yeah I wanna get my self out of this BED
