I'm Like a Lawyer with the Way I'm Always Trying to Get You Off (Me & You)

Singer: Fall Out Boy
Written by: Pete Wentz, Patrick Stump
Album: Infinity on High

Last year's wishes are these year's apology
Every last time I come home
I take my last chance to burn a bridge or two
I only keep myself this sick in the head
'Cos I know how the words to get you

We're the new face of failure
Prettier and younger but not any better off
Bullet-proof loneliness
At best, at best

Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you
If I woke up next to you
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you
If I woke up next to you

Collect the bad habits that you couldn't bear to keep
Out of the woods but I love
A tree I used to lay beneath, kissed teeth stained red
From a sour bottle baby girl
With the eyes the size of baby worlds

We're the new face of failure
Prettier and younger but not any better off
Bullet-proof loneliness
At best, at best

Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you
If I woke up next to you
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you
If I woke up next to you
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you
If I woke up next to you
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you
If I woke up next to you

The best way to make it through
With hearts and wrists intact
Is to realize two out of three ain't bad
Ain't bad

Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you
If I woke up next to you
Me and you
Honeymoon
Setting in a honeymoon
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you
If I woke up next to you
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you
Honeymoon

What a Catch, Donnie

Singer: Fall Out Boy ft. Elvis Costello, Gabe Saporta, Travis McCoy, Brendon Urie, Doug Neumann, Alex DeLeon, William Beckett
Written by: Pete Wentz & Patrick Stump
Album: Folie à Deux

I've got troubled thoughts and the self-esteem to match
What a catch, what a catch

You'll never catch us, so just let me be
Said I'll be fine, 'til the hospital or American Embassy

Miss Flack said I still want you back
Yeah, Miss Flack said I still want you back

I've got troubled thoughts and the self-esteem to match
What a catch, what a catch
And all I can think of is the way I'm the one who charmed the one
Who gave up on you, who gave up on you

They say the captain goes down with the ship
So when the world ends, will God go down with it?

Miss Flack said I still want you back
Yeah, Miss Flack said I still want you back

I've got troubled thoughts and the self-esteem to match
What a catch, what a catch
And all I can think of is the way I'm the one who charmed the one
Who gave up on you, who gave up on you

What a catch, what a catch
What a catch, what a catch

Costello: I will never end up like him
Behind my back, I already am
Keep a calendar, this way you will always know

Stump: I said I've got troubled thoughts and the self-esteem to match
What a catch, what a catch
And all I can think of is the way I'm the one who charmed the one
Who gave up on you, who gave up on you

Saporta: Where is your boy tonight?
I hope he is a gentleman

McCoy: We're going down, down in an earlier round
(Maybe he won't find out what I know)
And sugar, we're going down, swinging
(You were the last good thing)

Urie: (I'll be your number one with a bullet)
Dance, dance, we're falling apart to halftime
(A loaded gun complex, cock it and pull it)
Dance, dance, and these are the lives you love to lead

Neumann: This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race
(Dance, this is the way they love)
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race
(If they knew, how misery loves me)

DeLeon: One night, yeah and one more time
Thanks for the memories
Even though they weren't so great

Beckett: Growing up
(He tastes like you, only sweeter)
Growing up

I've got troubled thoughts and the self-esteem to match
What a catch, what a catch
