Cracker is an American alternative rock band fronted by Camper Van Beethoven singer David Lowery, with guitarist Johnny Hickman. They are best known for their hit songs "Low" and "Teen Angst (What the World Needs Now)".
The band's website once noted Cracker as "The only band to ever open for both Grateful Dead and Ramones," a unique distinction which is also indicative of the band's sound and style. Cracker comfortably mixes influences and sounds ranging from classic country music

the key to remmeber in this song is that you have to maintain the guitar rhythm even though the verse doesn't always match up. -sjv
intro/verse: AmCFG
The cigarettes And carrot juice Get yourself a new tattoo For those sleeveless days of June
I'm sitting on the Cafe Zino's steps With a book I haven't started yet Watching all the girls walk by
GF Could I take you out? FDm I'd be yours without a doubt CG On that big dipper If the sound of this It frightens you We could play it real cool And act somewhat indifferent
And hey June Why's you have to come Why'd you have to come around So soon? I wasn't ready For all this nature
The terrible green green grass And violent blooms Of flowered dresses And afternoons that make me sleepy
But we could wait awhile 'Fore we push that dull turnstile Into the passage Thousands they have tread And others sometimes fled Before the turn came
We could wait our lives Before a chance arrives Before the passage Form the top you can see Monterey Or think about San Jose Though i know it's not that pleasant
And hey Jim 'A Karoak Brother of the famous Jack Or so he likes to say Lucky bastard
He's sitting on the Cafe Zino's steps With a girl I'm not over yet Watching all the world go by
Boy you're looking bad Did I make you feel that sad? I'm honestly flattered But if she asked me out I'd be her without a doubt On that big dipper
Cigarettes And carrot juice get yourself a new tattoo For those sleeveless days of June I'm sitting on the Cafe Zino steps I haven't got the courage yet I haven't got the courage yet...
