Goo Goo Dollsis an alternative rock band formed in 1985 in Buffalo, New York by guitarist/vocalist John Rzeznik and bassist/vocalist Robby Takac. They are perhaps most famous for the hit "Iris", featured on the soundtrack to the 1998 film City of Angels. Currently, the band consists of John Rzeznik (guitar, vocals), Robby Takac (vocals, bass) and Mike Malinin (drums). Early in their career, the Goo Goo Dolls were frequently dismissed by critics as mere imitators of the Replacements; however, the band refined and mainstreamed their sound enough to become one of the most popular adult alternative rock bands of the latter half of the '90s, selling millions of records to audiences largely unfamiliar with their inspirations. That's no knock on the band, either -- their music simply improved in craft and accessibility as the years progressed, and radio happened to be receptive to what a decade earlier would have been considered collegiate power pop.

If you never had it then,
You dont know how bad it is.
There is nothing like it, well,
Needless talk then, I can tell. here comes the day, I sit and wait.
Always, always something.
The bills keep coming, the car aint running.
Now Im coming home again.
Another day,
Oh, the mailmans on his way
Just sit and wait.
Always pondering my fate too late,
Another day goes.
(background):
Dominoes are falling still, as I know they always will
Dominoes a test of will, dominoes
I bought them from you yesterday,
Little ? ? ? that you have made.
No one minds I can tell.
Seems Ive hit the ones you shall.
