Descendents – Dry Spell lyrics
If it was for me
I thought it would come so easy
I never realized
Life's just a series of lows and highs

I just wanna create
It doesn't matter how I do it
Nobody ever said
There's nothing to it

Goosebumps been gone
For way too long

Couldn't get it for free
Couldn't do it for the money
It just disappeared
Spent a lot of barren years

And if it doesn't work out
You can just set it down for later
Nobody ever said
You'd be dead forever

Goosebumps been gone
For way too long
Who knows how long
They'll stick around?

If it was for me
I thought it would come so easy
I never realized
Life's just a series of lows and highs

Couldn't get it for free
Didn't wanna have to try to do it
But nobody ever said
There's nothing to it

Goosebumps been gone
For way too long
Who knows how long
They'll stick around?

Goosebumps been gone
For way too long
Who knows how long
They'll stick around?

Please stick around

    The song is about how difficult it is to create new works/songs. First, he thought it would be easy to create without the pressure to create. Then, when it's not takes consolation that dry spells can't last forever. Ultimately, when creativity returns you take advantage because there's no telling how long it will stick around.
    Milo Auckerman wrote this song when returning to the band from his research career in 2002 (or at least it was on their 2004 album recorded in 2002). Presumably he had a dry spell during that time and this song marks the end of it. Likely he experienced himself since he said in a 1997 interview with Yo Beat that he can only write about things that affect him personally rather than imagining things that happen to other people.
    One of my favorite songs!
