LYRICS
No thesis existed for burning cities down at such a rampant rate
No graphics and no f**king powerpoint presentation
So they just DIY'd that sh*t and built their own bombs
She's his suicide blond, she's number than gold
Are you ready for another bad poem?
One more off key anthem
Let your teeth sink in
Remember me as I was not as I am
And I said "I'll check in tomorrow if I don't wake up dead,"
I kept wishing she had blonde ambition and she'd let it go to my head
Rat a tat tat
Rat a tat tat tat hey
If my love is a weapon
There's no second guessing when I say
Rat a tat tat
Rat a tat tat tat hey
If my heart is a grenade
You pull the pin and say:
We're all fighting growing old
We're all fighting growing old
In the hopes
Of a few minutes more
To get on St. Peter's list
But you need to lower your standards
Cause it's never
Getting any better than this
We are professional ashes of roses
This kerosene's live
You settled your score
This is where you come to beg, unborn and unshaven
Killing fields of fire to a congress of ravens
This is what we do, we nightmare you
I'm about to make the sweat roll backwards
And your heart beat in reverse
Our guts can't be reworked
As alone as a little white church in the middle of the desert
Getting burned
But I'll take your heart served up two ways
I sing a bitter song
I'm the lonelier version of you
I just don't know where it went wrong
She's sick and she's wrong
She's young dirty blonde
And you sink inside her like a suicide bomb
He says "I've seen bigger"
She says "I've lit better"
And they throw the matches down into the glitter
Not a dry eye left in the house
Go boy, run for your life
Talk less
Mean more
Let's be electric
Like we were before

This song is just perfect. It speaks to me so much. "My heart is a grenade, you pull the pin and say, 'We're all fighting growing old."
I’m not even too crazy fond of this song, but the sound of the drumsticks tapping gently in the background is enough to make me listen over and over again

If you ignore the "it's Courtney Bitch", this actually becomes like the best song ever. It has so much packed into it! Spoken word verses from Courtney, great wordplay from Patrick, a fastpaced pre-chorus and a rather on-key anthemic sounding chorus. It sounds huge and fast and it's everything on this album should aspire to be. Courtney Love and Elton John are probably the only people interested in saving rock and roll on this entire album.

Random Fact: Kurt Cobain, Janis Joplin, Jim Morisson, Jimi Hendrix, Amy Winehouse and several other musicians died at 27. I dunno why I chose to post this, I just thought of Courtney and then Kurt. So. There you go. Now you know. LONG LIVE THE 27 CLUB.

(Specifically "doing lines of dust and sweat off last night's stage, just to feel like you") Pete said in an interview that he wanted people to figure the song out on their own, and also said "Just think about getting past 27.

i'm currently on the verge of tears and this makes me feel better
I know me and my sister listened to all their Albums in the order they came out and it is crazy how much better they have gotten over the years.
call me crazy, but the whole "rat a tat" chanting bit with the beat almost gives me an Enter Shikari vibe :)
Anyone here still listening in 2022
I'm so happy they did a song with Courtney. She's my idol and I love Fall Out Boy. This is my favorite FOB song now :) I love this song so much.
This is one of their most underrated songs out there.
I feel like most people say the only reason why they hate Courtney if because "she killed Kurt" when really she didn't because Kurt had a lot of other problems in his life that we shouldn't know about and so did Courtney but anyways I think if it was anybody else it would kinda just suck. Joan jett would be awesome too actually.

Wish the whole album sounded like this song.
its sad how people can hate on courtney, all she wants to do is make music, and yet these trolls come by the tons... i think the true fans will carry both artists in their heart.
Courtney's spoken word segments sound very much like Patti Smith (the "Babelouge" intro for example) and I'm living for it ❤

This is hands down the best song lyrically on Save Rock and Roll, and one of the best lyrically out of all of their songs. I don't think I've connected with one of their lyrics as much as I connect with, "We're all fighting growing old/in the hopes of a few minutes more/ to get on St. Peter's list". I hate how under appreciated it is just because people don't like Courtney Love for really no reason at all. Best song on the album in my opinion.
Never got why people dislike this song. Have your opinions on Courtney, her parts are my favorites in the song. I’m not huge into FOB but out of the songs I have heard this one’s been my favorite and it’s due to Love’s involvement in the song
