Thriller Lyrics

[Intro: Jay-Z]

Yeah, what you critics said would never happen

We dedicate this album to anybody people said couldn't make it

To the fans that held us down 'til everybody came around

Welcome, it's here

[Verse 1: Patrick Stump]

Last summer, we took threes across the board

But by fall, we were a cover story, "Now in stores"

[Pre-Chorus 1: Patrick Stump]

Make us poster boys for your scene

But we are not making an acceptance speech

I found the safest place to keep all our old mistakes

Every dot com's refreshing for a journal update

[Chorus: Patrick Stump]

So long live the car crash hearts

Cry on the couch and all the poets come to life

Fix me in forty-five

So long live the car crash hearts

Cry on the couch and all the poets come to life

Fix me in forty-five

[Verse 2: Patrick Stump]

I can take your problems away with a nod and a wave

Of my hand, 'cause that's just the kind of boy that I am

[Pre-Chorus 2: Patrick Stump]

The only thing I haven't done yet is die

And it's me and my plus one at the afterlife

Crowds are won and lost and won again

But our hearts beat for the diehards

[Chorus: Patrick Stump]

So long live the car crash hearts

Cry on the couch and all the poets come to life

Fix me in forty-five

So long live the car crash hearts

Cry on the couch and all the poets come to life

Fix me in forty-five

[Bridge: Patrick Stump]

Long live the car crash hearts

(Long live the car crash hearts)

Long live the car crash hearts

(Long live the car crash hearts)

[Chorus: Patrick Stump, Jay-Z]

Long live the car crash hearts

Cry on the couch and all the poets come to life

Fix me in forty-five, hehe, woo

[Outro: Jay-Z]

Young, FOB

Let's go

“The Take Over, the Breaks Over” Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Baby, seasons change, but people don't, and

I'll always be waiting in the back room

I'm boring, but overcompensate with

Headlines and flash, flash, flash photography

[Pre-Chorus]

But don't pretend you ever forgot about me

Don't pretend you ever forgot about me

[Chorus]

Wouldn't you rather be a widow than a divorcee?

Style your wake for fashion magazines

Widow or a divorcee?

Don't pretend, d-d-d-don't pretend

[Post-Chorus]

We don't fight fair, we don't fight fair

[Verse 2]

They say your head can be a prison

Then these are just conjugal visits

People will dissect us till

This doesn't mean a thing anymore

[Pre-Chorus]

Don't pretend you ever forgot about me

[Chorus]

Wouldn't you rather be a widow than a divorcee?

Style your wake for fashion magazines, oh-oh-oh

Widow or a divorcee?

Don't pretend, d-d-d-don't pretend

[Bridge]

We do it in the dark with smiles on our faces

We're trapped and well concealed in secret places, oh-woah

We do it in the dark with smiles on our faces

We're trapped and well concealed in secret places

[Post-Chorus]

We don't fight fair, we don't fight fair, we don't fight fair

We don't fight fair, we don't fight fair...

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]

We do it in the dark with smiles on our faces

We're trapped and well concealed in secret places, oh-woah

We do it in the dark with smiles on our faces

We're trapped and well concealed in secret places

[Outro]

We don't fight fair, with smiles on our faces

We're trapped and well concealed in secret places

We don't fight fair (Don't pretend you ever forgot about me)

We don't fight fair

This Ain’t a Scene, It’s an Arms Race Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I am an arms dealer, fitting you with

Weapons in the form of words

And don't really care which side wins

Long as the room keeps singing, that's just the business I'm in

[Pre-Chorus]

This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race

I'm not a shoulder to cry on, but I digress

[Chorus]

I'm a leading man

And the lies I weave are oh so intricate (Do-do-do-do-do)

Oh so intricate, yeah (Do-do-do-do-do-do)

I'm a leading man

And the lies I weave are oh so intricate (Do-do-do-do-do)

Oh so intricate, yeah (Do-do-do-do-do-do)

[Verse 2]

I wrote the gospel on giving up

(You're looking pretty sinking)

But the real bombshells have already sunk

(Prima donnas of the gutter)

At night, we're painting your trash gold while you sleep

Crashing not like hips or cars, no, more like p-p-p-parties

[Pre-Chorus]

This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race

Bandwagon's full, please catch another

[Chorus]

I'm a leading man

And the lies I weave are oh so intricate (Do-do-do-do-do)

Oh so intricate, yeah (Do-do-do-do-do-do)

I'm a leading man

And the lies I weave are oh so intricate (Do-do-do-do-do)

Oh so intricate, yeah (Do-do-do-do-do-do)

[Post-Chorus]

Woah-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (Do-do-do-do-do)

Whoo

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]

All the boys who the dance floor didn't love

And all the girls whose lips couldn't move fast enough

Sing until your lungs give out

[Pre-Chorus]

This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race

This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race (Now you)

This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race (Wear out the groove)

This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race (Sing out loud)

This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race (Oh, oh)

This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race

[Chorus]

I'm a leading man

And the lies I weave are oh so intricate (Do-do-do-do-do)

Oh so intricate, yeah (Do-do-do-do-do-do)

I'm a leading man

And the lies I weave are oh so intricate (Do-do-do-do-do)

Oh so intricate (Do-do-do-do-do-do)

I’m Like a Lawyer With the Way I’m Always Trying to Get You Off (Me & You) Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Last year's wishes are this year's apologies

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 'cause I know how the words get you off

[Pre-Chorus]

We're the new face of failure

Prettier and younger, but not any better off

Bulletproof loneliness

At best, at best

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

Collect the bad habits that you couldn't bear to keep

Out of the woods but I love

The tree I used to lay beneath, kissed teeth stained red

From a sour bottle baby girl with eyes the size of baby worlds

[Pre-Chorus]

We're the new face of failure

Prettier and younger, but not any better off

Bulletproof loneliness

At best, at best

[Chorus]

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

[Bridge]

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

[Outro]

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 (A honeymoon)

Me and you, setting in a honeymoon (Honeymoon)

If I woke up next to you, if I woke up next to you

Me and you, setting in a honeymoon (Honeymoon)

If I woke up next to you, honeymoon...

Hum Hallelujah Lyrics

[Verse 1]

It's all a game of this or that, now versus then

Better off against worse for wear

And you're someone who knows someone who knows someone I once knew

And I just want to be a part of this

The road outside my house is paved with good intentions

Hired a construction crew 'cause it's hell on the engine

[Pre-Chorus 1]

And you are the dreamer and we are the dream

I could write it better than you ever felt it

[Chorus]

So hum "Hallelujah" just off the key of reason

I thought I loved you, but it was just how you looked in the light

A teenage vow in a parking lot, 'til tonight do us part

I sing the blues and swallow them too

[Verse 2]

My words are my faith, to hell with our good name

A remix of your guts, your insides x-rayed

And one day we'll get nostalgic for disaster

We're a bull, your ears are just a china shop

I love you in the same way, there's a chapel in a hospital

One foot in your bedroom and one foot out the door

[Pre-Chorus 2]

Sometimes we take chances, sometimes we take pills

I could write it better than you ever felt it

[Chorus]

So hum "Hallelujah" just off the key of reason

I thought I loved you, but it was just how you looked in the light

A teenage vow in a parking lot, 'til tonight do us part

I sing the blues and swallow them too

[Bridge]

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelu...

Hallelujah, hallelujah (Hum hallelujah, hum hallelujah)

Hallelujah, hallelu... (Hum hallelujah, hum hallelujah)

A teenage vow in a parking lot, 'til tonight do us part

I sing the blues and swallow them too

[Chorus]

So hum hallelujah, just off the key of reason

I thought I loved you, but it was just how you looked in the light

A teenage vow in a parking lot, 'til tonight do us part

Vow in a parking lot, 'til tonight do us part

A teenage vow in a parking lot, 'til tonight do us part

I sing the blues and swallow them too...

Golden Lyrics

[Verse 1]

How cruel is the golden rule

When the lives we lived are only golden-plated?

[Pre-Chorus]

And I knew that the lights of the city were too heavy for me

Though I carried carats for everyone to see

[Chorus]

And I saw God cry in the reflection of my enemies

And all the lovers with no time for me

And all of the mothers raise their babies

To stay away from me

[Verse 2]

Tongues on the sockets of electric dreams

Where the sewage of youth drowned the spark of my teens

[Pre-Chorus]

And I knew that the lights of the city were too heavy for me (Too heavy for me)

Though I carried carats for everyone to see (Everyone to see)

[Chorus]

And I saw God cry in the reflection of my enemies

And all the lovers with no time for me

And all of the mothers raise their babies

To stay away from me

[Outro]

And pray they don't grow up to be...

[Metronome Outro]

Thnks fr th Mmrs Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'm gonna make it bend and break

(It sent you to me without wings...) Say a prayer, but let the good times roll

In case God doesn't show

(Let the good times roll, let the good times roll...)

And I want these words to make things right

But it's the wrongs that make the words come to life

"Who does he think he is?" If that's the worst you've got

Better put your fingers back to the keys...

[Chorus]

One night and one more time

Thanks for the memories, even though they weren't so

Great, "He tastes like you, only sweeter"

One night, yeah, and one more time

Thanks for the memories, thanks for the memories

"See, he tastes like you, only sweeter"

[Verse 2]

Been looking forward to the future

But my eyesight is going bad

And this crystal ball...

It's always cloudy except for (Except for...)

When you look into the past (Look into the past...)

One night stand...

One night stand off!

[Chorus]

One night and one more time

Thanks for the memories, even though they weren't so

Great, "He tastes like you, only sweeter"

One night, yeah, and one more time

Thanks for the memories, thanks for the memories

"See, he tastes like you, only sweeter," oh-oh

[Bridge]

They say I only think in the form of crunching numbers

In hotel rooms, collecting page six lovers

Get me out of my mind and get you out of those clothes

I'm a liner away from getting you into the mood, woah

[Chorus]

One night and one more time

Thanks for the memories, even though they weren't so

Great, "He tastes like you, only sweeter"

One night and one more time

Thanks for the memories, thanks for the memories

"See, he tastes like you, only sweeter," oh-oh-oh-oh

One night and one more time (One more night, one more time)

Thanks for the memories, even though they weren't so

Great, "He tastes like you, only sweeter," oh-oh-oh

One night and one more time (One more night, one more time)

Thanks for the memories, thanks for the memories

(For the memories) "See, he tastes like you, only sweeter," oh-oh-oh-oh

Don’t You Know Who I Think I Am? Lyrics

[Intro]

Oh-oh, oh-oh

[Verse 1]

Penny for your thoughts, but a dollar for your insides

Or a fortune for your disaster

I'm just a painter

And I'm drawing a blank

[Pre-Chorus]

We only want to sing you to sleep

In your bedroom speakers, whoa-oh

We need umbrellas on the inside

Get me just right

[Chorus]

They say quitters never win

But we walk the plank on a sinking ship

There's a world outside of my front door

That gets off on being down

[Post-Chorus]

Oh-oh, oh-oh

[Verse 2]

I could learn to pity fools as I'm the worst of all

And I can't stop feeling sorry

For myself

Whoa oh

[Pre-Chorus]

We only want to sing you to sleep

In your bedroom speakers, whoa-oh

We need umbrellas on the inside

Get us right

[Chorus]

They say quitters never win

But we walk the plank on a sinking ship

There's a world outside of my front door

That gets off on being down

They say quitters never win

But we walk the plank on a sinking ship

There's a world outside of my front door

That gets off on being down

[Bridge]

We only want to sing you to sleep in your bedroom speakers

Whoa oh, we only want to sing you to sleep

[Chorus]

They say quitters never win

But we walk the plank on a sinking ship

There's a world outside of my front door

That gets off on being down

They say quitters never win

But we walk the plank and we walk the plank

There's a world outside of my front door

That gets off on being down

[Outro]

We're broken down on memory lane, alone together, we're alone

Oh-oh, oh-oh...

The Carpal Tunnel of Love Lyrics

[Verse 1: Patrick Stump]

We take sour sips from life's lush lips

And we shake, shake, shake the hips in relationships

Stomp out this disaster town

You'll put your eyes to the sun and say, "I know

You're only blinding to keep back what the clouds are hiding"

[Pre-Chorus 1: Patrick Stump]

And we might have started singing just a little soon

We're throwing stones at a glass moon

[Chorus: Patrick Stump]

Whoa oh, we're so miserable and stunning

Whoa oh, love songs for the genuinely cunning, whoa oh

[Verse 2: Patrick Stump]

We keep the beat with your blistered feet

We bullet the words at the mockingbirds singing

Slept through the weekend, and dreaming

Of sinking with the melody of the cliffs of eternity

Got postcards from my former selves saying, "How you been?"

[Pre-Chorus 2: Patrick Stump]

We might have said goodbyes just a little soon

(Stomp out this disaster town)

Robbing lips and kissing banks under this moon

[Chorus: Patrick Stump]

Whoa oh, we're so miserable and stunning

Whoa oh, love songs for the genuinely cunning

Whoa oh, we're so miserable and stunning

Whoa oh, love songs for the genuinely cunning, whoa oh

[Bridge: Pete Wentz]

It was ice cream headaches and sweet avalanche

When the pearls in our shells got up to dance

You call me a bad tipper of the cradle

Tired yawns for fawns on hunter's lawns

We're the has-beens of husbands

Sharpening the knives of young wives

Take two years and call me when you're better

Take teardrops of mine, find yourself wetter

[Chorus: Patrick Stump]

Whoa oh, we're so miserable and stunning

Whoa oh, love songs for the genuinely cunning

Whoa oh, we're so miserable and stunning

Whoa oh, love songs for the genuinely cunning, whoa oh...

Bang the Doldrums Lyrics

[Verse 1: Patrick Stump]

I wrote a goodbye note in lipstick on your arm

When you passed out

I couldn't bring myself to call

Except to call it quits

[Chorus: Patrick Stump]

Best friends, ex-friends 'til the end

Better off as lovers and not the other way around

Racing through the city, windows down

In the back of yellow checkered cars

[Post-Chorus: Patrick Stump]

Yo-ho-ho, whoa

Oh, yo-ho-ho, whoa

Yo-ho-ho, whoa

Oh, yo-ho-ho, whoa

[Verse 2: Patrick Stump]

This city says, "come hell or high water"

Well, I'm feeling hot and wet

I can't commit to a thing

Be it heart or hospital

[Chorus: Patrick Stump]

Best friends, ex-friends 'til the end

Better off as lovers and not the other way around

Racing through the city, windows down

In the back of yellow checkered cars

[Post-Chorus: Patrick Stump]

Yo-ho-ho, whoa

Oh, yo-ho-ho, whoa

Yo-ho-ho, whoa

Oh, yo-ho-ho, whoa

[Bridge: Patrick Stump, Pete Wentz, Both]

The tombstones were waiting, they were half-engraved

They knew it was over, they just didn't know the date...

And I cast a spell over the west to make you think of me

The same way I think of you

This is a love song in my own way

Happily ever after below the waist

[Chorus: Patrick Stump]

Best friends, ex-friends 'til the end

Better off as lovers

Racing through the city, windows down

In the back of yellow checkered cars

[Post-Chorus: Patrick Stump]

Yo-ho-ho, whoa

Oh, yo-ho-ho, whoa

Yo-ho-ho, whoa

Oh, yo-ho-ho, whoa

[Outro: Patrick Stump]

Best friends, ex-friends 'til the end (Yo-ho-ho, whoa)

Better off as lovers and not the other way around (Oh, yo-ho-ho, whoa)

(Yo-ho-ho) Ex-friends 'til the end (Whoa)

Better off as yo-ho-ho-oh

Fame < Infamy Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'm a preacher sweating in the pew

For the salvation I'm bringing you

I'm a salesman, I'm selling you hooks and plans

And myself making demands

[Chorus]

When I'm home alone, I just dance by myself

And you pull my head so close, volume goes with the truth

Signing off, "I'm alright in bed, but I'm better with a pen"

The kid was alright, but it went to his head

[Verse 2]

I am God's gift, but why would he bless me with

Such wit without a conscience equipped

I'm addicted to the way I feel when I think of you, whoa

There's too much green to feel blue

[Chorus]

When I’m home alone, I just can’t stop myself

And you pull my head so close, volume goes with the truth

Signing off, "I'm alright in bed, but I'm better with a pen"

The kid was alright, but it went to his head

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]

When I'm home alone, I just can't stop myself

And you pull my head so close, volume goes with the truth

Signing off, "I'm alright in bed, but I'm better with a pen

I'm alright in bed, but I'm better with a pen

The kid was alright, but it went to his head

You’re Crashing, but You’re No Wave Lyrics

[Verse 1]

The D.A. is dressed to the nines

In the mirror, he practices all his lines

To his closing argument, twelve hearts beat in favor

I'm guessing that he read the morning paper

The headline reads "The man hangs"

But the jury doesn't

[Pre-Chorus 1]

And everyone's looking for relief

United States versus disbelief

Mothers cast tears on both sides of the aisle

Clear your throat and face the world

The verdict falls like bachelors for bad luck girls

Only breathing with the aid of denial

[Chorus]

Case open, case shut, but you could pay to close it like a casket

Baby boy can't lift his headache head, isn't it tragic?

Oh-oh

[Post-Chorus]

Ohhh, ohhh, ohhh, ohhh, ohhh...

[Verse 2]

He glances at his peers sitting seven to twelve stacked

On one to six, the gallery is hushed...

Boys in three pieces dream of grandstanding and bravado

The city sleeps in a cell, notwithstanding what we all know

Hang on a rope or bated breath

Whichever you prefer

[Pre-Chorus 2]

And everyone's looking for relief

A bidding war for an old flame's grief

The cause, the kid, the course, the charm, and the curse

Not a word that could make you comprehend

Too well dressed for the witness stand

The press prays for whichever headline's worse

[Chorus]

Case open, case shut, but you could pay to close it like a casket

Baby boy can't lift his headache head, isn't it tragic?

Oh-oh

[Bridge]

Fresh pressed suit and tie, unimpressed birds sing and die

Can talk my way out of anything

The foreman reads the verdict, "In the above entitled actions

We find the defendant guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty..."

[Chorus]

Case open, case shut, but you could pay to close it like a casket

Baby boy can't lift his headache head, isn't it tragic?

Case open, case shut, but you could pay to close it like a casket

Baby boy can't lift his headache head, isn't it tragic?

Oh-oh

[Post-Chorus]

Ohhh, ohhh, ohhh, ohhh, ohhh...

I’ve Got All This Ringing in My Ears and None on My Fingers Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You're a canary, I'm a coal mine

'Cause sorrow is just all the rage

Take one for the team

You all know what I mean

And I'm so sorry but not really

Tell the boys where to find my body

New York eyes, Chicago thighs

Pushed up the window to kiss you off

[Chorus]

The truth hurts worse

Than anything I could bring myself to do to you

The truth hurts worse

Than anything I could bring myself to do to you

[Verse 2]

Do you remember the way I held your hand

Under the lamp post and ran home this way

So many times, I could close my eyes?

[Chorus]

The truth hurts worse

Than anything I could bring myself to do to you

The truth hurts worse

Than anything I could bring myself to do to you

[Instrumental Bridge with Vocalizations]

[Chorus]

The truth hurts worse

Than anything I could bring myself to do to you

The truth hurts worse

Than anything I could bring myself to do to you

[Outro]

The truth
