Misheard Lyric I Confidently Believed

Ever since I heard EWBAITE as a pre-teen, I confidently had heard Lonely Girl as,
"I'm lonely / So horny / Can't you relieve?"
and only have recently found out I was was wrong.

Did anyone else hear this, or is this just something only I have believed?

Tired of Sex Line

I love Pinkerton. I have listened to this album every day since I was 11.
The first track on the album - Tired of Sex - has always been one of my favourites. However, I noticed something. After he says, "Oh why can't I be making love come true," the second time, at the 2:02 mark, a band member says something.

The extra lyric is not marked anywhere. I have checked so much lyric websites, but it never has that line.
It sounds like, "What are you gonna do??" or "What am I gonna do??"
But I don't know.

Does anyone know what is said? I'm sorry if this is a dumb question, I just have horrible hearing and really cannot tell.

All the time, I hear people say when talking about Weezer
"Their lyrics are good!"
"Their songs are catchy!"
"The instrumentals are great!"
Yes, those are all true, but the true best thing about Weezer is the vocals. OH MY FUCKING GOD THEIR VOCALS ARE PERFECT.
Even songs by them I personally HATED were things I listened to multiple times, as their voices were just soooo good. Their stretched vowels, pitch changes, cracks, harmony, etc.
Great.

An example is Don't Let Go. This is a good song, but sorta generic. Like, if it were another artist? I would probably listen once, then never again, as you could just find a song the same in the 2000s pop scene.
However, why do I listen to it? THEIR VOCALS ARE SO GREAT. I feel as if I'm ascending to heaven.
Even with their most hated and joked about songs, I still will listen sometimes because they all having such immaculate vocals.
The singing is so delectable it's crazy.

And their best vocal performance in my humble opinion is Across The Sea. I GENUINELY CAN'T PUT INTO WORDS HOW GOOD THE VOCALS ARE!!!

This may have been worded badly, but genuinely, I just needed to make a post saying how much I love their voices.
