So there's this guy, and he's been friends with this chick for years. It started out innocently enough, but then the dude started falling pretty hardcore for the chick (who remains completely oblivious). Fast forward three years, to where the guy loses again as the girl hooks up with her dream guy. Again. |

Dead-beat dad who sees the error of his ways? Or custody-deprived dreamer who wishes he could be the father he knows he can be if that stupid cunt of a mother would let him see his kid? |

A dude was seriously hurt by some stupid ho, realizes this ho-ish aspect, and can now finally stand up for himself and be confident. |

The song starts out as regretful for screwing up a relationship with incessant drug-use, but then progresses into a more antagonistic feel when the writer realizes that whatever happens was not his fault alone. She shares the blame as well. |

This song is pretty self-explanatory; it's basically about two lovers who are evidently forced to live four hundred miles away from each other, and trying to maintain that precious relationship via the internet and phone. |

Hilarity at it's best. They're making fun of the fifty million other songs like this, except the other ones are serious. And Miranda71191, apparently you haven't heard Orgasm = Love. |

I think it's interesting that Skiba can write in such a fashion that the song can be interpreted in so many ways. |

| Fall Out Boy – It's Hard to Say "I Do", When I Don't Lyrics

I think the whole shooting thing is more of a play on words rather than something deep and poetic. Bands are constantly instructing the listener to put their hands in the air in excitement as if they were at a show. Pete is merely making it something atypical by saying it's not what you think, and instead turning it into the only other plausible situation in which you'd have your hands in the air: a robbery.
This ties back into the "This is a stick-up" line in the first verse.
Just my thoughts, though. I find that throughout most lyrical content, there are occasionally phrases that don't necessarily tie in with the rest of the song; they're just there because they sound good. And nobody can deny the fact that the "shoot you" line in this song is simply audio aesthetic. |
