Cover art for Lake Effect Kid lyrics by Fall Out Boy

Boomerang my head Back to the city I grew up in Again and again and again and again Forever a lake effect kid

To break it all down-- Pete is a nostalic person, that thinks about the past a lot and at the time he wrote this he was thinking about all the memories he made growing up in Chicago. Therefore, boomerang my head, to the city i grew up in. And since he's saying again and again and again and again I get the feeling he was thinking about Chicago quite a bit. Also, to like OmgItsAl said, He is and forever will be, a Chicago boy.

Oh and the line is "Sometimes when i'm in heaven, i get forgetful of the earth." If you listen closely thats what it is. Pete's saying that since he's moved to LA (aka the city of angels, aka heaven) he forgot where he was and wasn't thinkin about Chicago (aka earth) too much.
