[Intro]
Don't you go, we need you here
You brighten up this shitty year
Well, congratulations on your bit of success
We can't wait to see what you do next

[Verse 1: Jack Met]
Come outside, come outside
You fell low, but now you're high
You been outside, been outside
So go ahead and do it one more time
Come outside, come outside
You went hard, and you did fine
You been outside, been outside
So go ahead and do it one more time (Do it one more time)

[Pre-Chorus: Jack Met]
They wanted, they wanted
They wanted, they wanted

[Chorus: Jack Met]
They wanted heaven from me
I gave 'em hell
Now they want something bigger
I'm overwhelmed
And if you're just as hopeless (Hopeless)
I wish you well
We can't wait to see what you do next

[Verse 2: Jack Met]
Come outside, come outside
You fell low, but now you're high
You been outside, been outside
So go ahead and do it one more time
Come outside, come outside
You went hard, and you did fine
You been outside, been outside
So go ahead and do it one more time (Do it one more time)

[Verse 3]
Don't you go (Don't you go)
We need you here (We need you here)
You brighten up this shitty year
Well, congratulations on your bit of success
We can't wait to see what you do next

[Pre-Chorus: Jack Met]
They wanted, they wanted
They wanted, they wanted

[Chorus: Jack Met]
They wanted heaven from me
I gave 'em hell
Now they want something bigger
I'm overwhelmed
And if you're just as hopeless (Hopeless)
I wish you well
We can't wait to see what you do next

[Post-Chorus]
We can't wait to see
We can't wait to see
We can't wait to see
We can't wait to see

[Bridge: Jack Met]
Can you wait a sec?
Let me catch my breath?
Let me catch my
I can't remember how I got here
Can you wait a sec? (Can you wait a sec?)
Let me catch my breath?
Let me catch my
I can't remember how I got here, got here

[Outro: Jack Met]
They wanted heaven from me
I gave 'em hell
Now they want something bigger
I'm overwhelmed
I think it's time to go now
I think my curtain's falling
Just don't forget about me
When you get out of college
If it's my final album
And if I am forgotten
I hope I made you smile
That's all I ever wanted
Congratulations on your bit of success
Welcome to the Neotheater
We can't wait to see what you do next

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.
