In my younger days
This wouldn't have been so hard
I would've just shrugged it off
But now it's tough
I'm not so rough
I've got a little ways to go
It's not over yet, I know
But it feels
Not so far away
In my younger days
This still would've knocked me down
But I would've just bounced right back, you know
Now I'm a statistic
But I'm not fatalistic
I'm not yet resigned to fate
And I'm not gonna be ruled by hate
But it's strong
And it's filling up my days
In my younger days
I would've just chalked it up
As part of my ongoing education
But I've had enough
Been through some stuff
And I don't need any more misery
To teach me what I should be
I just need you back
The Eels are an alternative rock band formed in 1995 by musician and singer-songwriter Mark Oliver Everett (also known as Man Called E, Mr. E, or simply E; son of famed physicist Hugh Everett III). Everett formed the Eels with drummer Butch Norton and bassist Tommy Walter (known also by the stage name Abandoned Pools) when his solo career stalled. The band quickly gained fame with the release of their debut album *Beautiful Freak* in 1996, when a track from the album, "Beloved Monster", was used in the film *Shrek*. However, their second album, *Electro-Shock Blues*, is considered the Eels' magnum opus. Written during a time of great personal tragedy for Everett (his sister committed suicide and his mother had terminal lung cancer), the album explores themes of grief, loss, and hope with a rare emotional depth. The Eels have released six studio albums, the most recent being *Blinking Lights and Other Revelations* in 2005. This album is a personal journey into Everett's spirituality and sanity, and it was critically acclaimed but not commercially successful. Some of the Eels' most representative songs include "Mr. E's Beautiful Blues", "Novocaine for the Soul", "Souljacker Part II", and "Climbing to the Moon".
