Lyrics[]
[Intro: Patrick Stump]
I got troubled thoughts and the self-esteem to match
What a catch, what a catch, whoa...
[Verse 1: Patrick Stump]
You'll never catch us, so just let me be
Said, "I'll be fine till the hospital or American embassy"
[Pre-Chorus: Patrick Stump]
Miss Flack said, "I still want you back"
Yeah, Miss Flack said, "I still want you back"
[Chorus: Patrick Stump]
I 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, oh, whoa
[Verse 2: Patrick Stump]
They say the captain goes down with the ship
So when the world ends, will God go down with it?
[Pre-Chorus: Patrick Stump]
Miss Flack said, "I still want you back"
Yeah, Miss Flack said, "I still want you back"
[Chorus: Patrick Stump]
I 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
[Bridge: Patrick Stump]
What a catch, what a catch, what a catch, what a catch, whoa...
[Reprise: Elvis Costello]
I will never end up like him
Behind my back, I already am
Keep a calendar, this way you will
Always know
[Chorus: Patrick Stump]
I said, I 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
[Fall Out Boy Reprises]
[Reprise: Gabe Saporta]
Where is your boy tonight?
I hope he is a gentleman
Maybe he won't find out what I know
You were the last good thing about this part of town...
[Reprise: Travie McCoy]
We're going down, down in an earlier round
And sugar, we're goin' down swinging
I'll be your number one with a bullet
A loaded god complex, cock it and pull it...
[Reprise: Brendon Urie]
Dance, dance, we're falling apart to halftime
Dance, dance, and these are the lives you'd love to lead
Dance, this is the way they'd love
If they knew how misery loved me...
[Reprise: Doug Neumann]
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race...
[Reprise: Alex DeLeon]
One night, yeah, and one more time
Thanks for the memories, even though they weren't so great
He tastes like you, only sweeter...
[Reprise: William Beckett]
Growing up
Growing up...
[Outro: Patrick Stump]
I got troubled thoughts and the self-esteem to match
What a catch, what a catch
