Fallout Boy Lyrics.

Ok... so I had like no idea what half of Fall Out Boy's song "Sugar We're Going Down" said until I looked it up.

So does anyone wanna enlighten me or take a guess on what the hell does "...sleeping for the wrong team" mean?

****

Am I more than you bargained for yet

I've been dying to tell you anything you want to 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

(A notch in your bedpost, but you're just a line in a song)

Drop a heart, 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

[x2]

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, 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

[x2]

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 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

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

it's a typical teenage angst song, just like approx. one trillion other emo/pop-punk bands. He's jealous she's with another dude, he wants her bad, he's a big crybaby

 
its about getting head from a girl.

gangsta raps lyrics are all the same, Someone gets shot, someones frontin, someones a wangsta, someones benchpressin, someones makin fried chicken, and the beans dont burn on the grill. You can see that shit in kentucky. Fuck the bronx, deep south bitches-scientist
 
^ yeah plyrics is where its at. But, if you've never seen them in concert then don't talk.. they rock reallly fucking hard. I saw them with matchbook romance and mest about a year ago.

ahhhaha fall out boy rocks hard? go to a hatebreed or chimaira concert, go into the pit, then tell me that fallout boy rocks hard...

AHAHAHAHA fallout boy rocks hard... WOW!

 
i'm pretty sure it's about a messy break up. it's not that emo.

eric-'yes i have sex with mts. ice and rock... ice and rock...'
tmorry-'spokane needs to smoke some moore crack'
taelor-'i mean all the nwft guys are pretty freaking hot.'

jacks mannequin is becoming more mainstream. but i hate that kind of mindset, so what if a band goes mainstream, if some band has the chance to blow up and make tons of money theyre gonna do it, it would be stupid not too. i liked fall out boy when they were anything but mainstream, now they have a hit song, who cares that doesnt change anything. it is pretty funny how the song got so big yet so many people (including myself) were suprised to see what the lyrics actually say. anyways who cares if a band has finally REACHED THEIR GOAL and is now making tons of money and is getting hype. cheer up emo kids.

 
i still dont get why its such a bad song. If they werent very popular and u were like the only one that knew about em, u'd think that song was amazing, so why the fuck is it bad just cuz mtv plays it?

I ski at the crappiest hill ever...

 
fall out boy rocks my socks....i've been a fan since their 1st album came out.

oh...jack's mannequin--genius

Definitely definitely not 'loaded gun' my friend. Even the band confirms its not.

jacks mannequin is dope, but im a big something corporate fan too so its hard to liek one and not the other. as far as the loaded god thing yeah those are the right lyrics. for those that dont know a god complex is where someone feels like they can control something(or people) and play "god" in a sense(kinda like the movie the island if u saw it) they lyrics are just making a play on words using cock it and pull it to make it seem like theyre reffering to a gun. thats my interpretation, bands are just weird like that i guess

 
well it obviously means that your not sleeping with your gf who would be the right team, he is sleeping with someone else aka the wrong team

whos better and more gangster.. personally i say the game he has better flow and is more gangster ya 50 did get shot 9 times but not in real dangerous places... the game got shot in the heart thats bad ass-assassin167

 
^what are u talking about??? How many people do u really know that actually only listen to what they hear on TRL everyday. Its only that way with 12yr old girls and shit but everyone eventually gets their own taste and have the artists they like. Just cuz mtv plays a certain artist doesnt change anything about their music, so fuck u if u just wont listen to a band that gets played on mtv. I guarantee that any band u listen to would jump at the chance to get on mtv, now if they did, would u stop lisening to them??? I hope not.

you really have a thing against everything mainstream, you posted something nearly identical in the dane cook thread. seriously i get almost all my music from my friends, i listen to the stuff i like and dont listen to the stuff thats not my style its not a huge deal. what would happen if your absolute favortie underground band all of a sudden pulled a deal and got big? if they stayed true to their style i hope you wouldnt ditch them because other people now like them.

 
im wearing a jacks mannequin shirt right now. believe me, they arent mainstream yet. i got asked if it was a jack johnson shirt like 5 times.

and fob is really great in concert. especially now more people are at the shows, the pushing factor is amplified and there are more (and younger) kids getting hurt. the band on stage really goes crazy. ive seen them alot, but ive elaborated on other threads about this and dont want to be a name dropper like skiridingbitch. overall they are really great live. if you havent seen them, dont talk. take this to you grave is 10 times better than cork tree anyways. even "evening out..." was better.

I love the music snobs who think they are better than everyone because they don't like anything "mainstream". You are exactly what you hate. Hating mainstream is the new mainstream. If you like something that is realatively low key, good listen to it because you like it, not because they haven't "sold out" yet.

Go ahead and walk around with a false sense of accomplishment.
 
dont start the pop/punk or emo thread about fall out boy. there was one. i filled the hell out of it. they classify themselves as pop punk. so dies purevolume, myspace music, and a few magazines

back to the original
 
not directed at you, mostly eastcoast.....whatever his name. I didn't mean that liking some realatively unknown band is a bad thing, but bashing someone for liking something that is on tv or has a million dollar record deal is.

Go ahead and walk around with a false sense of accomplishment.
 
I feel old already, I'm 18 and I realized I can't listen to this or any "emo" music anymore, it just doesn't feel right.

i agree jacks mannequin is becoming more mainstream

yes. although many people who first hear it ask if its a new something corporate cd. which is a legit question seeing how the singers voice is so distinct and the styles of the two bands are so close. something corporate is so well known now that lots of people are starting to find out about jacks mannequin. ill admit im no big music buff, i get a lot of it from my friends. some of their music i like, some i dont, some is mainstream some isnt. it really doesnt matter to me. but hey thats what its about, why would anyone listen to music they dont like?
 
thats cool that its catching on. if anything itll shed some more light on his cancer. I mean if jacks mannequin catches on, it could spark another live aid thing for cancer. no it couldnt. but hey its cool to dream about it. where i live, good music is still quite unknown. the radio really says what is and what isnt good here. i mean yeah there are acceptions to this, but like take yesterday.

yesterday, i am wearing my fall out boy shirt from like 2 years ago that is green because it was "green day" at my school. i havent worn it often at school, so i didnt know if anyone would notice. i got so many "dude fall out boy rocks", i was sick of it. some random girl also said "yah fall out boy!! wanna go out some time or something?". like this wouldnt have happened 3 months ago, and it shows how my school operates around TRL.

as i said earlier, the jacks mannequin shirt just gets me "wait thats not jack johnson is it?"
 
you want to konw why you cant understand their lyrics? its because stupid punk kids write them and they dont have to make sense because little bitches who like their music dont even care what they are they just follow the crowd and listen to what mtv tells them to. fuck fall out boy and everyone who is a fan of that garbage music
 
Bayside, Silverstein, Scary Kids Scarig Kids, Avenged Sevenfold, Emery, Atreyu, As I Lay Dying, Trice, Saosin, From Autumn to Ashes are probably my favorite bands...

Fall out Boy is alright, I used to be more into them than I am now, I Still listen to them every once in a while though
