From Under The Cork Tree-Fall Out Boy

 From Under The Cork Tree-Fall Out Boy Album Lyrics

Our Lawyer Made Us Change The Name Of This Song So We Wouldn't Get Sued

Brothers and sisters, put this record down. Take my advice, cause we are bad news. We will leave you high and dry, it's not worth the hearing you'll lose. It's just past eight and I'm feeling young and reckless. The ribbon on my wrist says do not open before Christmas. We're only liars, but we're the best. (we're the best) We're only good for the latest trends. We're only good cause you can have almost famous friends, besides we've got such good fashion sense. Brothers and sisters, yeah, put these words down. Into your notebook, (spit lines like these) We're friends when you're on your knees, make them dance like we were shooting their feet. It's just past eight and I'm feeling young and reckless. The ribbon on my wrist says, do not open before Christmas. We're only liars, but we're the best. (we're the best) We're only good for the latest trends, we're only good cause you can have almost famous friends. Besides, we've got such good fashion sense, we're only liars, but we're the best. We're only good for the latest trends, we're only liars, but we're the best. We're only good for the latest trends, we're only good cause you can have almost famous friends. Besides, we've got such good fashion sense. 

Of All The Gin Joints In All The World

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. You only hold me up like this, cause you don't know who I really am. Sometimes, I just want to know what it's like to be you. We're making out inside crashed cars, we're sleeping through all our memories. I used to waste my time, dreaming of being alive. (Now I only waste it dreaming of you) Turn off the lights and turn off the shyness, cause all of our moves make up for the silence. And oh, the way your makeup stains my pillowcase. Like I'll never be the same, you only hold me up like this. Cause you don't know who I really am, I used to waste my time on, waste my time on. Waste my time dreaming of being alive (now I only waste it dreaming of you) Turn off the lights and turn off the shyness, cause all of our moves make up for the silence. And oh, the way your makeup stains my pillowcase. Like I'll never be the same. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. I've got headaches and bad luck, but they couldn't touch you, no. I've got headaches and bad luck, but they couldn't touch you, no. I'm not trying, you only hold me up like this. Turn off the lights, and turn off the shyness. Cause all of our moves make up for the silence. And oh, the way your makeup stains. Like I'll never be the same. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. 

Dance Dance

She says she's no good with words, but I'm worse. Barely stuttered out a joke of a romantic stuck to my tongue, weighed down with words too overdramatic. Tonight it's it can't get much worse, versus no one should ever feel like. I'm two quarters and heart down. And I don't wanna forget how your voice sounds, these words are all I have so I write them. So you need them just to get by. Dance, dance. We're falling apart to half time, dance dance. And these are lives you love to lead, dance this is the way they'd love. If they knew how misery loved me. You always fold just before you're found out, drink up it's last call last resort. But only the first mistake and I, I'm two quarters and a heart down. And I don't want to forget how your voice sounds, these words are all I have so I wrote them, so you need them just to get by. Why don't you show me, a little bit of spark. You've been saving for his mattress, love? Dance, dance. We're falling apart to half time, dance, dance. And these are the lives you love to lead, dance this is the way they'd love if they knew how misery loved me. Why don't you show me, a little bit a spark. You've been saving for his mattress? (Mattress, mattress) I only want sympathy in the form of you crawling into bed with me. Dance, dance. We're falling part to half time, dance, dance. And these are the lives you love to lead, dance this is the way they'd love (way they'd love) Dance this is the way they'd love (way they'd love)  Dance this is the way they'd love if they knew how misery loved me. Dance, dance. Dance, dance. Dance, dance. Dance, dance. 

Sugar We're Going Down

Am I more than you bargained for yet? I've been dying to tell you, anything you wanna hear. Cause that's just who I am this week, lie in the grass. Next to the mausoleum. I'm just a notch in your bedpost, but you're just a line in a song. (Notch in your bedpost, but you're just a line in a song) Drop a heart, and break a name. We're always sleeping in and sleeping for the wrong team. We're going down, down in an earlier round. And sugar, we're going down swinging. I'll be your number one with a bullet, a loaded God complex, cock it and pull it. We're going down, down in an earlier round. And sugar, we're going down swinging. I'll be your number one, with a bullet. A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it. Is this more than you bargained for yet? Oh, don't mind me, I'm watching you two from the closet. Wishing to be the friction in your jeans, isn't it messed up. How I'm just dying to be him? I'm just a notch in your bedpost, but you're just a line in a song. (Notch in your bedpost, but you're just a line in a song) Drop a heart, and break a name. We're always sleeping in, and sleeping for the wrong team. We're going down, down in an earlier round. And sugar, we're going down swinging. I'll be your number one with a bullet, a loaded God complex cock it and pull it. We're going down, down in an earlier round. And sugar we're going down swinging. I'll be your number one with a bullet, a loaded God complex, cock it and pull it. Down, down in an earlier round. And sugar we're going down swinging. I'll be your number one with a bullet, a loaded God complex, cock it and pull it. We're going down, down in an earlier round (take aim at myself) And sugar we're going swinging (take back what you said) I'll be your number one with a bullet (take aim at myself) A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it. We're going down, down. (down, down) Down, down (down, down) We're going down, down (down, down) A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it. We're going down, down in an earlier round. (take aim at myself) And sugar, we're going down swinging (take back what you said) I'll be your number one with a bullet (take aim at myself) A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it. 

Nobody Puts Baby In The Corner

Drink down that gin and kerosene, and come spit on bridges with me. Just to keep us warm, light a match to leave me be. Light a match to leave me be, I keep my jealousy close cause it's all mine. And if you say this makes you happy, then I'm not the only one lying. Keep quiet, nothing comes as easy as you. Can I lay in you bed all day? I'll be your best kept secret, and your biggest mistake. Hand behind this pen relives a failure everyday, keep quiet, nothing comes as easy as you. Can I lay in your bed all day? I'll be your best kept secret and your biggest mistake, hand behind this pen relives a failure everyday. And I keep my jealousy close cause it's all mine, and if you say this makes you happy. Then I'm not the only one lying, drink down that gin and kerosene. And come, spit on bridges with me. Just to keep us warm (just to keep us warm) Light a match to leave me be, light a match to leave me. Keep quiet, nothing comes as easy as you. Can I lay in your bed al day? I'll be your best kept secret, and your biggest mistake. Hand behind this pen relives a failure everyday, keep quiet nothing comes as easy as you. Can I lay in your bed all day? I'll be your best kept secret, and your biggest mistake. Hand behind this pen relives a failure everyday. So wear me like a locket around your throat, I'll weigh you down, I'll watch you choke. You look so good in blue, you look so good in blue. So wear me like a locket around your throat, I'll weigh you down, I'll watch you choke. You look so good in blue, you look so good in blue. So wear me like a locket around your throat, I'll weigh you down, I'll watch you choke. You look so good in blue, you look so good in blue. Keep quiet, nothing comes as easy as you.

Can I lay in your bed all day? I'll be your best kept secret, and your biggest mistake. Hand behind this pen, relives failure everyday. 

I've Got A Dark Alley And A Bad Idea That Says You Should Shut Your Mouth (Summer Song) 

Choke me something awful just like kisses on the necks of best friends, we're the kids who feel like dead ends. And I want to be known for my hits, not just my misses. I took a shot and didn't even come close. At trust and love and hope, and the poets are just kids who didn't make it. And never had it all, and the record won't stop skipping. And the lies just won't stop slipping, and besides my reputation's on the line. We can fake it for the airwaves, force our smiles, baby, half dead. From comparing myself to everyone else around me, please put the doctor on the phone cause I'm not making any sense. Blame everyone but me for this mess, and my back has been breaking from this heavy heart, we never seemed so far. I'm hopelessly hopeful, you're just hopeless enough. But we never had it all, and the record won't stop skipping. And the lies just won't stop slipping, and besides my reputation's on the line. We can fake it for the airwaves. Force our smiles, baby, half dead. From comparing myself to everyone else around me. To everyone else around me. Everyone else around me, everyone else around me. 

7 Minutes In Heaven (Atavan Halen) 

I'm sleeping my way out of this one, with anyone who will lie down. I'll be stuck fixated on one star, when the world is crashing down. I keep telling myself, I keep telling myself. I'm not the desperate type. But you've got me looking in through blinds, I keep telling myself, I keep telling myself. I'm not the desperate type, I'm sitting out dances on the wall. Trying to forget everything that isn't you, I'm not going home alone. Cause I don't do too well, I'm sitting out dances on the wall. Trying to forget everything that isn't you, I'm not going home alone. Cause I don't do too well on my own. The only thing worse than not knowing, is you thinking that I don't know. I'm having another episode, I just need a stronger dose. I keep telling myself, I keep telling myself. I'm not the desperate type. But you've got me looking in through blinds. I keep telling myself, I keep telling myself. I'm not the desperate type. I'm sitting out dances on the wall, trying to forget everything that isn't you. I'm not going home alone, cause I don't do too well. I'm sitting out dances on the wall, trying to forget everything that isn't you. I'm not going home alone, cause I don't do too well on my own. Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da. Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da. Doo-do-do, doo-do-do. Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da. Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da. Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da. Doo-do-do, doo-do-do. I keep telling myself, I keep telling myself. I'm not the desperate type. But you've got me looking in through blinds. I keep telling myself, I keep telling myself. I'm not the desperate type. Sitting out dances on the wall. Trying to forget everything that isn't you. I'm not going home alone, cause I don't do too well on my own. 

Sophomore Slump Or Comeback Of The Year

Are we growing up or just going down? It's just a matter of time until we're all found out. Take our tears, put them on ice. Cause I swear, I'd burn this city down to show you the light. We're the therapists, pumping through your speakers. Delivering just what you need, we're well read and poised. We're the best boys, we're the chemists who found the formula. To make your heart, swell and burst. No matter what they say, don't believe a word. Cause I'll keep singing this lie, if you keep believing it. I'll keep singing this lie, I'll keep singing this lie. Are we growing up or just going down? It's just a matter of time until we're all found out. Take our tears, put them on ice. Cause I swear, I'd burn this city down to show you the light. We travel like gypsies only, with worse luck and far less gold. We're the kids you used to love, but then we grew old. We're the lifers, here till the bitter end. Condemned from the start, ashamed of the way the songs and the words. Own the beating of our hearts, cause I'll keep singing this lie. I'll keep singing this lie. Are going up, or just going down? It's just a matter of time until we're all found out. Take our tears, put them on ice. Cause I swear, I'd burn this city down to show you the light. And there's a drug in the thermostat to warm the room up, and there's another around to have us bend your trust. Got a sunset in my veins, and I need to take a pill to make this town feel okay. The best part of believe is the lie. I hope you sing along and you steal a line, I need to keep you like this in my mind. So give in or just give up, the best part of believe is the lie. I hope you sing along and you steal a line, I need to keep you like this in my mind. So give in or just give up. Are we going up, or just going down? Are we going up, or just going down? It's just a matter of time until we're all found out. Take our tears, put them on ice. Cause I swear, I'd burn this city to show you the light. 

Champagne For My Real Friends, Real Pain For My Sham Friends

You are a getaway car, a rush of blood to the head. But me, I'm just the covers on top of your bed. You steer in a rear view mirror, you make my head swim. But I'll keep you warm and won't ask you where you've been, with your backless black dress soaked to the skin. When it's said and done, they're all scrambling. And we're friends, we're friends. Just because we move units, strike us like matches, cause everyone deserves the flames. We only do it for the scars and stories, not the fame. At least everyone is trying, everyone is shining. Everyone deserves the flames, but it's such a shame. Such a shame. The sounds of this small town make my ears hurt, (Make my ears hurt) (Oh yeah, you caught me) But I caught you on worse, oh. They say, you want a war? You've got a war. But who are you fighting for? Tides out, the ship's run aground, we drown. Traitors in shallow water, with your backless black dress soaked to the skin. When it's said and done, they're all scrambling. And we're friends, we're friends. Just because we move units, strike us like matches, cause everyone deserves the flames. We only do it for the scars and stories, not the fame. At least everyone is trying, everyone is shining. Everyone deserves the flames, but it's such a shame. Such a shame. Everyone is trying, everyone is shining. Everyone deserves the flames, but it's such a shame. Such a shame. Strike us like matches, cause everyone deserves the flames. We only do it for the scars and stories, not the fame. At least everyone is trying, everyone is shining. Everyone deserves the flames, but it's such a shame. 

I Slept With Someone In Fall Out Boy And All I Got Was This Stupid Song Written About Me

I found the cure to growing older, and you're the only place that feels like home. Just so you know, you'll never know. And some secrets weren't meant to be told, but I found the cure to growing older. I'm the first kid to write of hearts, lies, and friends. And I am sorry my conscience called in sick again, and I've got arrogance down to a science. Oh, and I'm the first kid to write of hearts, lies, and friends. Douse yourself in cheap perfume, it's so fitting, so fitting of the way you are. You can't cover it up, can't cover it up. So douse yourself in cheap perfume, it's so fitting, so fitting of the way you are. You can't cover it up, can't cover it up no oh oh whoa. Find a safe place, brace yourself, bite your lip. I'm sending your fingernails and empty bottles you've sipped, back to your family cause I know you will be missed. So you can find a safe place, brace yourself. They call kids like us vicious and carved out of stone, but for what we've become, we just feel more alone. Always weigh what I've got against what I left, so progress report, I am missing you to death. Douse yourself in cheap perfume, it's so fitting, so fitting of the way you are. You can't cover it up, so douse yourself in cheap perfume. It's so fitting, so fitting of the way you are. You can't cover it up, can't cover it up, no oh. Someone old, no one new, feeling borrowed. Always blue, someone old. No one new, feeling borrowed. Always blue. Someone old, no one new. Feeling borrowed, always blue. Someone old, no one new. Always borrowed, always you. I found a cure for growing older, I found a cure to growing older. Douse yourself in cheap perfume, it's so fitting, it's so fitting of the way you are. You can't cover it up, can't cover it up. So douse yourself in cheap perfume, it's so fitting, so fitting of the way you are. You can't cover it up, can't cover it up. 

A Little Less Sixteen Candles, A Little More Touch Me

I confess, I messed up. Dropping I'm sorry like you're still around, and I know you're dressed up. Hey kid you'll never live this down. You're just the girl all the boys want to dance with, and I'm just the boy who's had too many chances. I'm sleeping on your folk's porch again, dreaming. She said, she said, she said, why don't you just drop dead? I don't blame you, for being you. But you can't blame me for hating it, so say what are you waiting for? Kiss her, kiss her. I set my clocks early, cause I know I'm always late. Write me off, give up on me. Cause darling what did you expect, I'm just off, a lost cause. A long shot, don't even take this bet. You can make all the moves, you can aim all the spotlights. Get all the sighs and the moans just right, I'm sleeping on your folk's porch again, dreaming. She said, she said, she said, why don't you just drop dead? I don't blame you, for being you. But you can't blame me for hating it, so say what are you waiting for? Kiss her, kiss her. I set my clocks early, cause I know I'm always late. Always on (always on) You said you'd keep me honest. Always on (always on) But I won't call you on it. Always on (always on) I don't blame you for being you, but you can't blame me for hating it. So say what are you waiting for? Kiss her, kiss her. I set my clocks early, cause I know I'm always late. I set my clocks early, cause I know I'm always late. 

Get Busy Living Or Get Busy Dying (Do Your Part To Save The Scene And Stop Going To Shows) 

This has been said so many times, that I'm not sure if it matters. But we never stood a chance, and I'm not sure if it matters. If you are the shores, I am the waves begging for big moons. I'm mailing letters, to addresses in a ghost town. Your secret's out, I know this hurts, it was meant to. (it was meant to) Your secret's out and the best part is, it isn't even a good one. And it's mind over, you don't, don't matter. This has been said so many times that I'm not sure if it matters, but it must be said again that. All us boys are just screaming, into microphones for attention. Because we're just so bored, oh. We never knew that you would pick it apart, oh. I'm falling apart to songs about hips and hearts, your secret's out. I know this hurts, it was meant to (it was meant to) Your secret's out and the best part is, it isn't even a good one. And it's mind over, you don't, don't matter. I used to obsess over living, now I only obsess over you. Tell me, you'd like boys like me better. In the dark lying on top of you. This has been said so many times, that I'm not sure if it matters. This has been said so many times, that I'm not sure if it matters. This has been said so many times, that I'm not sure if it matters. This has been said so many times, that I'm not sure if it matters. I know this hurts, it was meant to (it was meant to) Your secret's out, and the best part is. It isn't even a good one. And it's mind over, you don't, don't matter. From day one, I talked about getting out. But not forgetting about, how all my worst fears are letting out. He said, why put a new address. On the same old loneliness. When breathing just passes the time, until we all just get old and die. Now talking's just a waste of breath, and living's just a waste of death. And why put a new address, on the same old loneliness. And this is you and me, and me and you. Until we've got nothing left. 

XO

I comb the crowd and pick you out, my mouth moves too fast for you to figure it out. It starts eyes closed to fingers crossed, to I swear, I say. To I swear, I say. To hands between legs, to whatever it takes. To drinks at the club, to the bar, to the keys to your car. To hotel stairs, to the emergency exit door, no. To the love, I left my conscience pressed. Between the pages of the Bible in the drawer, what did it ever do for me? I say. It never calls me when I'm down, love never wanted me, but I took it anyway. Put your ear to the speaker and choose love or sympathy, but never both, love never wanted me. I hoped you choked and crashed your car, hey tear catcher, that's all that you are. And ever were from the start. I swear, I say. I swear I say. To hands between legs, to whatever it takes. To drinks at the club, to the bar, to the keys to your car. To hotel stairs, to the emergency exit door, no. To the love, I left my conscience pressed. Between the pages of the Bible in the drawer, what did it ever do for me? I say. It never calls me when I'm down. Love never wanted me, but I took it anyway. Put your ear to the speaker and choose love or sympathy, but never both no. To the love, I left my conscience pressed. Through the keyhole I watched you dress, kiss and tell. Loose lips sink ships. To the love, I left my conscience pressed. Through the keyholes I watched you dress, kiss and tell. Loose lips sink ships. To the love, I left my conscience pressed. Through the keyholes I watched you dress, kiss and tell. Loose lips sink ships. To the love, I left my conscience pressed. To the love, I left my conscience pressed. To the love, I left my conscience pressed. Between the pages of the Bible, in the drawer. What did it ever do for me? I say.
