[Chorus]
Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty went down
He said screw it
Imma smile right through it
And I’ll scream when no one’s around

[Verse 1]
Something’s wrong
But I’m scared to look it up
If I do that
And no one has it
I’ll feel so alone

Something’s wrong
But don’t pity me for long
If you get sad
Then I’ll feel bad
That I told you at all

[Pre-Chorus]
I got friends in a lotta weird places
Wonder if they’re gonna call
Depending what my face is
What my face is
I could fake it
I could move away or I could
Suck it up and face it

[Chorus]
Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty went down
He said screw it
Imma smile right through it
And I’ll scream when no one’s around
Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty went down
Hе said screw it
There’s a big crowd looking
Imma scrеam when no one’s around

Look outside
They’re making snowmen on your street
Underneath your pillow
You can sigh yourself to sleep
Look outside
They’re making snowmen on your street
Hide behind your pillow
Close the window
Cause you know you can’t be seen

[Pre-Chorus]
I got friends in a lotta weird places
Wonder if they’re gonna call depending
What my face is
If I can’t breathe
Then you can’t see
But aren’t you excited that I’m giving you
The best me?

[Chorus]
Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty went down
He said screw it
Imma smile right through it
And I’ll scream when no one’s around
Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty went down
He said screw it
There’s a big crowd looking
Imma scream when no one’s around

[Bridge]
If I try
To keep my tears in my eyes
Would you like me
Would you like me
Would you like me

[Pre-Chorus]
I got shows in a lot of weird places
Wonder if they’re gonna come depending
What my face is
Remember Vegas
I can’t take another panic episode
When I get off the stage, man

[Chorus]
Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty went down
He said screw it
Imma smile right through it
And I’ll scream when no one’s around
Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty went down
He said screw it
There’s a big crowd looking
Imma scream when no one’s around

The indie-pop band AJR—three brothers born and raised in New York City—achieved a startlingly quick level of success with 2013 track “I’m Ready", a buoyant electro-pop smash that was featured in the trailer for Amy Schumer’s Trainwreck and became certified US Platinum in 2015.

Adam Met (bass/vocals), is the oldest brother, a Columbia University graduate. Ryan Met (ukulele/piano/vocals), a bespectacled ‘94 kid is the band’s main songwriter, also having co-written Andy Grammer hits “Back Home” and the certified gold “Good To Be Alive”. Jack Met (vocals/guitar), is the lead vocalist who splits time between the band and attending Columbia.

AJR began in 2005, busking on the streets and in the parks of New York. Raised on vinyls from the 50s and 60s, AJR was initially inspired by the likes of The Beach Boys and Frankie Valli, but the original sound they’ve now created resembles a modern mix of those classic sounds, with flavors of Imagine Dragons, fun., and hip-hop production elements pointing towards Kanye West.
