When I Get Home You're So Dead Lyrics

The words are coming
I feel terrible
Is it typical for us to act like this?
Am I just another scene from a movie
That you've seen one hundred times?
Cause baby, you weren't the first, or the last, or the worst
And I've got to fill the blanks in the past with a verse
We could sit around and cry
But frankly, you're not worth it anymore

So say hello to all the boys
At the top of this table that you're under
Lipstick lullabies
This is sorry for the last time
And baby, I understand how you're making new friends
This is how you get by
The moral this time is
Girls make boys cry
And I...

On any other day I would shoot the boy
But your simple toy had caused a scene like this
Leave him hanging on the walls
Just a picture in the hall
Like a hundred more
(Like a hundred more)
Consider this as a gift as you taste him on your lips
And he's making you scream with his hands on your hips
I hope he's leaving you empty, baby
This is just a fix for such a simple little whore

So say hello to all the boys
At the top of this table that you're under
Lipstick lullabies
This is sorry for the last time
And baby, I understand how you're making new friends
This is how you get by
The moral this time is
Girls make boys cry

And your name remains the same
All that has changed is this pretty face
So pull the trigger
It never gets closer
You want to start over
But never start over
Pull the trigger
It never gets closer
You want to start over
But never start over

So say hello to all the boys
At the top of this table that you're under
Lipstick lullabies
This is sorry for the last time
And baby, I understand how you're making new friends
This is how you get by
The moral this time is
Girls make boys cry
And I...

Say hello, say hello
Lipstick lullabies
This is sorry for the last time
And baby, I understand how you're making new friends
This is how you get by
The moral this time is
Girls make boys cry

onsider this as a gift as you taste him on your lips, And he's making you scream with his hands on your hips. I hope he's leaving you empty baby this is just a fix, For such a simple little whore.

Some of the best lyrics ever written.

this song is more about the guy than it is about the girl. he got fukced over by this girl he thought he loved. and now hes payiing her back by not caring what she does. he finally realizes that she isnt worth his time.

and at the end, "you want to start over but never start over." she realizes he was something special and now she hates herself for doing such horrible things.

"Am I just another scene, From a movie that you've seen one-hundred times?"

^ i use that stanza as a quiet attack on myspace and aim profiles against the girl who's trying to cling to the guy i love. their phrasing is just flipping amazing.

"GIRLS MAKE BOYS CRY"

--this is saying that girls should stop bullshiting about how horrible boys can be. most of the time it is the girl that screws the guy over.

i love this song. like crazy. ah.

I think the song is about a guy who's had his heart broken by quite a few girls as the lyrics go "Cause baby, you weren't the first, or the last, or the worst" and this girl has cheated on him and he thinks all "girls make boys cry". And I agree with the girl who commented about the party game where the girl gives a guy a blowjob under the table and you've gotta guess who is recieving.

I think this song is about a boy who wasted all of his time on a girl that cheated on him the whole time. She broke his heart, and in the end he stopped making excuses for her. "The moral this time is girls make boys cry." There was no reason to "shoot the boy" because it didn't matter that he had gotten with his girlfriend. She had gotten with so many other people as well, it was ultimately her fault.

When he says she's leaving them hanging on the wall I think he has a double meaning. That she seduces boys and leaves them hanging by not calling them, and that she thinks of boys as trophies. She's gotten with a certain number of boys, and it's something to be proud about.

Song Meaning

"So say hello to all the boys at the top of this table that you're under" What an AMAZING lyric. There are so many sexual lyrics in this song, "I understand how you're making new friends, this is how you get by" so that leads me to believe he's been cheated on, but he was just pissed, not depressed about it. "We could sit around cry, but frankly you're not worth it anymore." He does feel bad about whatever insults he's spitting out, though, I've been there lol. "The words are coming, I feel terrible."

My Opinion
