Stroke 9 formed in the San Francisco Bay Area in 1989. The band has since recorded five albums and toured extensively in the United States, Canada and Europe. Fueled by the commercial success of the hit song “Little Black Backpack,” their third album, “Nasty Little Thoughts,” went gold in 2000. The single “Kick Some Ass” from their fourth album “Rip It Off” was featured in the movie “Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.” The band has also had songs in other movies and TV shows including “Ed TV,” “Scrubs,” “Malcolm in the Middle,” and “West Wing.” They released the album "All In" in 2004 and "Cafe Cuts", an all acoustic album of 11 of their past songs and 1 new song in February of 2006. Their sound is similar to that Third-Eye Blind, Lit, Greenwheel, and many of the other late 90's alternative bands.

Reject Lyrics

Stroke 9

No one tastes like you
And no one wastes me with their words like you do
And no one can change my views
Like you do

Do you really think I wanted this to fail?
And do you really think this crazy world will get better
And do you really think this crazy world will get better

No one tastes like you
No one wastes me with their words like you do
And nothing between us is assumed
And no one can change the fact that I was sold on you

I'm the reject that you never accepted
I'm the reject that you always neglected
I'm the reject that you never accepted
Now I'm left wrecked and forever affected

There's nothing left to do
There's nothing left to say and no more to lose
I miss all the things you knew
There's no excuse

And now when I'm all alone
There's nothing else I can see
There's nothing else I can be anymore
