[Verse 1]
Sometimes, when I'm in Heaven
I get forgetful of the Earth, whoa
Until I hear you bickering like bugs and birds
The heat is off, gate's open, the shade is down

[Pre-Chorus]
I got a pocket full of deadliness
Opium den mother, forget my head
At the dead-end called unsteadiness
Boxed blondes have less fun

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

[Verse 2]
Oh, I got the skyline in my veins
Forget your night time
Summer love on a gurney with a squeaky wheel

And joke us, joke us
'Til Lakeshore Drive comes back into focus
I just wanna come back to life
Spark my crazy head to keep you warm at night

[Pre-Chorus]
I got a pocket full of deadliness
Opium den mother, forget my head
At the dead-end called unsteadiness
Boxed blondes have less fun, fun

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

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

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

Boomerang my head
To the city I grew up in (To the city I grew up in)
Again and again and again and again
Forever a lake effect kid

[Outro]
Again and again and again
And again and again

Fall Out Boy

Fall Out Boy is an American rock band hailing from Wilmette, Illinois. The band was formed in 2001 by Pete Wentz, who supplies bass and lyrics to the band, and guitarist Joe Trohman, who both used to be part of metalcore band Arma Angelus. Trohman later recruited vocalist Patrick Stump, who initially tried out as the band’s drummer, after meeting him in a bookstore. After the release of Project Rocket/Fall Out Boy, a split EP with Project Rocket. It was recorded without current drummer Andy Hurley due to him being disinterested in the project; Hurley later joined in 2003 as a replacement touring drummer.

Fueled By Ramen, who were a small independent label at the time, personally called Fall Out Boy to ask them to record a full-length record after hearing one of their demos online. This album became their 2003 debut, Take This To Your Grave, and was a tipping point between the band’s underground success to success in the mainstream. It was the band’s last album to feature Stump as the lead lyricist.

The band’s 2004 acoustic EP, My Heart Will Always Be the B-Side to My Tongue, became their first charting release and gave fans a taste of what to expect on their sophomore album From Under The Cork Tree. The album creation was set back in February 2005 after Wentz’s suicide attempt, which influenced songs such as “7 Minutes In Heaven (Atavan Halen).” The album was released in May 2005 through Island Records, featuring guest vocals from William Beckett of The Academy Is… and Brendon Urie of Panic! At The Disco.
