Classifieds Lyrics
My life reads like the classifieds.
Pages of what's for sale, whats on the auction block?
Attention bidders, its Lot 45,
He's got a decent voice; he's got that crooked smile.
Hold on, you haven't heard the best yet
He writes good storylines, he's got those honest eyes.
So, take him home for just $9.95,
he'll sing the songs you like, he'll keep you warm at night (at night).
Back down, cash out, that's the city for ya.
Break down and back out, and get what's coming to you.
When you said you were falling apart.
I thought you meant that you were falling apart.
Ohh oh...
I'm not the type to forget about nights like this,
when every single move that I make is documented and scored for style points.
The once ambitious one, now holds a smoking gun.
And if I die in my sleep, are you still willing to be everything you promised you would be?
Back down, cash out, that's the city for ya.
Break down and back out, and get what's coming to you.
When you said you were falling apart I thought you meant that you were falling apart.
Ohh oh
Will you be the first one to tell the neigborhood papers,
and all my family and friends that still care.
Did you buy what I sold and did you feel what I told you,
I hope that you still do, will you?
Promise yourself, that this isn't all we've got
Back down, cash out, that's the city for ya.
Break down and back out, get what's coming to you.
When you said you were falling apart
I thought you meant that you were falling apart.
Back down, cash out, that's the city for ya.
Break down and back out, get what's coming to you.
When you said you were falling apart
I thought you meant that you were falling apart.

Add your song meanings, interpretations, facts, memories & more to the community.
It's obvious. It's about selling yourself on the market and how people see you as just an entity, not a person.
The Academy Is.. are great and they haven't come to toronto because they're not big.
but fuck
come. we want you.
I'm listening to this song right now. I think it's one of my favorites on their cd... but I like pretty much all of them. Definetly one of my favorite bands. =D
oh god. SHUT THE FUCK UP. you are the exact example of the people i hate! I LOVE ROCK AND ROLL!!!!! YOU DIDNT SELL OUT. I LOVE YOU WILLIAM. no william and the boys didnt sell out, you did. if you love the band as much as you say you do, why the Fuck dont you have the fucking cd? god, go bury your head in the sand, and wait for your fucking prom. jesus christ man. your the people that make people hate TAI. so go fuck your dad.
Wow I love this song. Comment people! I think I kind of get it, but I'm not really able to express my opinion eloquently.
I love that line in the second verse "and if i die in my sleep, are you still willing to be everything you promised you would be?"
I think that line itself expresses exactly how people are sometimes. They'll say something to one person about "who they REALLY are" and then, when that person isn't around, they'll act a totally different way. this song is amazing. c'mon now, more comments!
i like the beginning. he's completely bragging in a non-selfish way that just makes you admire him for his forwardness. he's one of those guys that you love but know you hate everything he sings about. the song slow down, makes me hate him, but i can't help but sing along to the catchy lyrics. i love it.
Awesome song. I love how his voice gets when he sings "I'm not the type to forget about nights like this"! Definately very catchy and fun to sing along with like sheslikeohsoemo said.
I love this song but yet I hate it because it reminds me of someone.I completlty agree with electriic of what the song means. uuhhh I love this song so fuckin much but I wish I didnt at the same time. Damn!
very catchy song...it's so cute
to me, this is about other people not seeing you as a person--more like an object.
