[Intro]
Hey, we're My Chemical Romance
This is our favorite Morrissey song
It's called "Jack the Ripper"

Oh, you look so tired
Your mouth is slack and wide
You're ill-housed and you're
You're ill-advised
I bet your face is as mean
As your life has been
And oh, you look so tired
Well but tonight you presume too much
Too much, I said too much
And if it's the last
Thing I ever do
I'M GONNA GET YOU
Crash into my arms
I WANT YOU
You don't agree
But you don't refuse
I know you
And, oh I, I know a place
Where no one is likely to pass
Oh, you don't care if it's late
And you don't care if you're lost
And oh, you look so tired
Well but tonight you presume too much
Too much, I said too much
And if it's the last
Thing I ever do
I'M GONNA GET YOU
Crash into my arms
I WANT YOU
You don't agree
But you don't refuse
I know you
Come on!
Let's go!
And oh, you look so tired
Well but tonight you presume too much
Too much, I said too much
And if it's the last
Thing I ever do
I'M GONNA GET YOU
Crash into oh my fucking arms
I WANT YOU
You don't agree
But you don't refuse
I know you
Crash into oh my fucking arms
I WANT YOU
You don't agree
But you don't refuse
I know you

My Chemical Romance is an alt/punk/hardcore rock band that produced four studio albums and a compilation album over their initial twelve-year lifespan from 2001-2013. They then went on a six-year hiatus, until Halloween of 2019, when they announced a long-awaited revival of the band. They have touched the hearts of millions through their honest, raw lyrics and inspirational stories.

The band started after front-man and founder Gerard Way witnessed the 9/11 terror attacks in New York City. He felt compelled to empower people and make a difference in the world. As a result, he wrote the band’s first song, “Skylines And Turnstiles.” He shared the lyrics with his friend Matt Pelissier, who agreed to be the then-unnamed band’s drummer. Gerard then recruited Ray Toro, whom he used to be in a band with as the lead guitarist, and eventually invited his brother Mikey Way to be the bassist, and Frank Iero to be the rhythm guitarist.

Their first album, I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love, was released in 2002 and was recorded in Matt Pelissier’s attic. Because of this, some of the songs are lovingly referred to as the “attic demos.” The album’s copyright warning
