EELS
Eels (often typeset as eels or EELS) is an American rock band formed in Los Angeles in 1991 by singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Mark Oliver Everett, known by the stage name E. Band members have changed over the years, both in the studio and on stage, making Everett the only official member for most of the band's work. Eels' music is often filled with themes of family, death, and unrequited love. Since 1996, Eels has released fourteen studio albums, seven of which charted in the Billboard 200.

The Main Mix
She locked herself in the bathroom again
So I am pissing in the yard
I have to laugh when I think how far it's gone
But things aren't funny any more
I drew a line into the dirt
And dared her to step right across it
And she did
So I am knocking on the door again
I say, "Do you want to be alone?"
She says, "No I don't wanna be alone,
But I think that you do."
I drew a line into the dirt
And dared her to step right across it
And she did
And I know she's right
I know how it would be
If I had my own way with the world
As I know it should be
She locked herself in the bathroom again
So I've been shutting down the lights
And I don't know if I'll ever go back again
I'm drivin' straight into the night
I drew a line into the dirt
And dared her to step right across it
And she did
God forbid you actually feel All your feelings, even the sad, not so good ones. There's always Prozac!
They should totally cover the song though.

Not anywhere close to John Lennon.
The lyrics make me cringe. Very adolescent.
