Band: Fall Out Boy
Song: You're Crashing, But You're No Wave
Album: Infinity On High [ 2007 ]
# The D.A. is dressed to the nines
# In the mirror he practices all his lines
# To his closing argument, twelve hearts beat in favor
# I'm guessing that he read the morning paper
# The headline reads "The Man Hangs, but the jury doesn't"
# And everyone's looking for relief
# The United States versus disbelief
# Mothers cast tears on both sides of the aisle
# Clear your throat and face the world
# The verdict falls like bachelors for bad luck girls
# Only breathing with the aid of denial
# Case open, case shut
# But you could pay to close it like a casket
# Baby boy can't lift his headache head
# Isn't it tragic ?
# He glances at his peers sitting seven to twelve
# Stacked on one to six the gallery is hushed
# Boys in three pieces dream of grandstanding and bravado
# The city sleeps in a cell notwithstanding what we all know
# Hang on a rope or bated breath
# Whichever you prefer
# And everyone's looking for relief
# A bidding war for an old flame's grief
# The 'cause, the kid, the cough, the charm, and the curse
# Not a word that could make you comprehend
# Too well dressed for the witness stand
# The press prays for whichever headline's worse
# Case open, case shut
# But you could pay to close it like a casket
# Baby boy can't lift his headache head
# Isn't it tragic ?
# Fresh pressed suit and tie
# Unimpressed birds sing and die
# Can talk my way out of anything
# The foreman reads the verdict
# "In the above entitled actions we find the defendant guilty"
# Case open, case shut
# But you could pay to close it like a casket
# Baby boy can't lift his headache head
# Isn't it tragic ?
# Case open, case shut
# But you could pay to close it like a casket
# Baby boy can't lift his headache head
# Isn't it tragic ?
