Gin Blossoms are an alternative rock band formed in 1987, in Tempe, Arizona. They took their name from a photo of W.C. Fields which bore the caption "W.C. Fields with gin blossoms," referring to the actor's gin-ravaged nose. The band, who were musically weaned on The Byrdsand Tom Petty, released three albums and had several hits in the mid 1990s, before breaking up in 1997.

Gin Blossoms
(scott johnson, bill leen, phillip rhodes, jesse valenzuela, robin wilson)
Well weve been here once before
And weve stuck it out for more
When we come around well settle down
The cracks below the floor
Has it been eleven years
Since Ive stood here with my peers
And we started out to conquer doubt and frisbee
I shouldve been a whole lot farther
Im never going back to college
For just one good day job
Youre not missing much for sure
Only everything thats yours
And at times it fails and were full sail in the gutter
Is this home cause I forgot
If it is then thanks a lot
cause I cant pretend to know one end from the other
I shouldve been a whole lot farther
Im never going back to college
For just one good day job
Youre not missing much for sure
Only everything thats yours
At times it fails and were full sail in the gutter
Is this home cause I forgot
If it is then thanks a lot
cause I cant pretend to know one end from the other
I shouldve been a whole lot farther
Im never going back to college
For just one good day job...
