[Intro: Clinton Sparks]
Woo! Get familiar! Fall Out Boy featuring Travis from Gym Class Heroes! Let's go!

Get familiar!

[Verse 1: Patrick Stump]
White sand, swollen glands, Paris, Tokyo, New
New New York, M-M-M-M-Mexico
Get plastic (woah oh)
Stay tragic (woah oh)
Proclamation of emancipation, oh dear Lord
Please let me into heaven for just an afternoon

[Chorus]
No, Sam I am
I can't go to sleep without an Ambien
Zzz's so hard they call me Mister Goodbye
Saying catch me if you can (catch), catch me if you can
No, Sam I am
I can't go to sleep without an Ambien
Zzz's so hard they call me Mister Goodbye
Saying catch me if you can (catch), catch me if you can (can)

[Spoken: Travie McCoy]
Hahaha! Yeah, you know what it is!
Upstate New York's finest, baby (Upstate berserkers in the building!)
Mad [?], how you feeling? You ready? (Ow!)

[Verse 2: Travie McCoy]
Let's talk about the scene for a minute (yes)
I know we ain't been seen in a minute (nope)
We left before a minute now we all up in it
Baby boy, if you got them big dreams, go and get it
Never been the type for tight jeans I won't fit it
When I see them scene girls that they all gonna get it
And I'm living clean now, a lotta y'all won't get it
No, it's me, but I don't give a damn if you all don't get it
So fresh and so clean, in my Eugene fitted
While I'm laughing at the baby, y'all crying at the clinic
I read a couple blogs and they had my ass livid
But now I got my own, the world gotta live with it
Never played basketball, but I could show you how to pivot
Making moves in that black hatchback Honda Civic
Like I did in high school, wishin' I could relive it
But I can't, so let's go on and give the hook a revisit

[Chorus]
No, Sam I am
I can't go to sleep without an Ambien
Zzz's so hard they call me Mister Goodbye
Saying catch me if you can (catch), catch me if you can
No, Sam I am
I can't go to sleep without an Ambien
Zzz's so hard they call me Mister Goodbye
Saying catch me if you can (catch), catch me if you can (can)

[Outro: Clinton Sparks, Ian Crawford & Alex DeLeon]

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.
