What a Catch Donnie
I got troubled thoughtsAnd the self-esteem to matchWhat a catch, what a catch
You'll never catch usSo just let me beSaid I'll be fineTill the hospital or American EmbassyMiss Flack said I still want you backYeah, Miss Flack said I still want you back
I got troubled thoughtsAnd the self-esteem to matchWhat a catch, what a catchAnd all I can think of Is the way I'm the oneWho charmed the oneWho gave up on youWho gave up on you
They say the captainGoes down with the shipSo, when the world endsWill God go down with it?Miss Flack said I still want you backYeah, Miss Flack said I still want you back
I got troubled thoughtsAnd the self-esteem to matchWhat a catch, what a catchAnd all I can think of Is the way I'm the oneWho charmed the oneWho gave up on youWho gave up on you
What a catchWhat a catchWhat a catchWhat a catch
[Elvis Costello:] I will never end up like himBehind my back, I already am

K eep a calendarThis way you will always know
I got troubled thoughtsAnd the self-esteem to match
What a catch, what a catchAnd all I can think of Is the way I'm the oneWho charmed the oneWho gave up on youWho gave up on you
[Gabe Saporta:] Where is your boy tonight?I hope he is a gentlemanMaybe he won't find out what I know
You were the last good thing[Travis McCoy:] We're going down, down in an earlier roundAnd sugar, we're goin' down swinging[Brendon Urie:] Dance, dance, we're falling apart to halftimeDance, dance, and these are the lives you'd love to leadDance, this is the way they'd loveIf they knew how misery loved me[Doug Does:] This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race[Alex DeLeon:] One night and one more timeThanks for the memoriesEven though they weren't so greatHe tastes like you, only sweeter[William Beckett:] Growing up, growing up
I got troubled thoughtsAnd the self-esteem to match
What a catch, what a catch

Wishes bounce me weightlessThe infrared scope on pointlessnessThe bulls are sedated
And this fight's fixedDon't feel bad for the suicidal catsGotta kill themselves nine times before they get it rightThe P.A. system keeps my heart heart beating tonight
Oh hell yesI'm a nervous wreckOh hell yesThe drugs just make me resetK nock once for the fatherTwice for the son
Three times for the holy ghost
Come on in, the water's warmCome on like a sugar cube but with a kick in the headLike putting wings on leadAnd your eyes are blocking my starlightI'm the last of my kindAnd that's all that should matter t-t-to you
Follow the disorganized religion of my headAnd we'll never get through customs
Let's just take off again insteadGot my degree in the gutter,My heart broken in the dorms of the ivy league
Oh hell yesI'm a nervous wreckOh hell yesThe drugs just make me resetK nock once for the fatherTwice for the sonThree times for the holy ghost
K nock once for the fatherTwice for the sonThree times for the holy ghost
I'm a nervous wreckI'm a nervous wreckI'm a nervous wreck huh

It's not me, it's youActually, it's the taxidermy of you and meUntie the balloons from around my neck and ground meI'm just a racehorse on the trackSend me back to the glue factory
Always thought I'd float awayAnd never come backBut I've got enough miles on my carTo fly the boys home on my ownBut you know me: I like being all aloneAnd keeping you all aloneAnd the charts are boringAnd the kids are snoringAnd the girl's in a slingYou say you're not listening and I said I'm wishing...And I said... I said...

My head's in heaven, my soles are in hellLet's meet in the purgatory of my hips and get well
Hurry, hurryYou put my head in such a flurry, flurryOh freckle, freckleWhat makes you so special?What makes you so special?I'm gonna leave youI'm gonna teach youHow we're all aloneHow we're all alone
Guild me, build meIt's your club, so let me in (let me in)K nowing how heartwarmingIt is inside your skin

Oh my friends all lie and sayThey only want the best wishes from meOh 3-2-1, we go live
Oh baby you're a classic

I can make your heart slowI can feel the weather in my bonesWish hard enough I could turn it to what I like
Your pupils big they're rolling like dice
They sayThey only want the best wishes from me (They only want the best from me)Oh 3-2-1, we go live
Oh baby you're a classicLike a little black dressYou're a faded moonStuck on a little hot mess (little hot mess)And oh baby you're a classic

If home is where the heart isthen we're all just fuckedI can't rememberI can't rememberAnd I want it so badI'd shoot the sunshine into my veinsI can't rememberThe good old days
And it's kind of funnyThe way we're wearing anchors on our shirtsWhen being anchored or bored
just feels like a curse
My mind is a safeAnd if I keep it in we all get richMy body is an orphanageWe take everyone inDoing lines of dust and sweatoff last night's stageJust to feel like you
Milligrams in my headBurning tobacco in my windchasing the directionChasing the direction you went

You're a bottled starThe planets alignYou're just like MarsYou shine in the skyYou shine in the sky
Are all the good times getting gone?They come and go and go and come and go (come and go and come and go)Oh yeah I've got a lot of friends who are starsBut some are just black holes
My mind is a safeAnd if I keep it in we all get richMy body is an orphanageWe take everyone inDoing lines of dust and sweat

And it's kind of funnyThe way we're wearing anchors on our shirtsWhen being anchored or bored

I wanna scream 'I love you' from the top of my lungsBut I'm afraid that someone else will hear me
You can only blame your problems on the world for so long
Before it all becomes the same old songAs soon as we hit the hospital I know we're gonna leave this townAnd get new passports and get get get get get out now
All the Yes men said 'no comment'My mouth got going the wrong way and all the calls started snowingThe time my dad caught me a horse shoe crabAnd I asked him if throwing it back into the sea would bring our luck back
I wanna scream 'I love you' from the top of my lungsBut I'm afraid that someone else will hear me
You can only blame your problems on the world for so longBefore it all becomes the same old songAs soon as we hit the hospital I know we're gonna leave this townAnd get new passports, get out now
Tell that boy I'll leave you alone nowLike a stove, I'll turn my love downSupra and the prophet are both in the business of souls
I wanna scream 'I love you' from the top of my lungs
But I'm afraid that someone else will hear meI wanna scream 'I love you' from the top of my lungsBut I'm afraid that someone else will hear me
You can only blame your problems on the world for so longBefore it all becomes the same old songAs soon as we hit the hospital I know we're gonna leave this town(know we're gonna leave this town)And get new passports and get get get get get out,Get get get get get out now!

Does your husband know the way thatthe sunshine gleams from your wedding band?Does he know the wayDoes he know the wayOf the crickets that would convince me to call it a night?
But I will never end up like himBehind my back I already amK eep a calendar, this way you will always know
The last time you came throughOh darling I know what you're going throughThe last time you came throughOh darlingOh darlingOh darling...
AwTempest in a teacupGet uniquePeroxide princes shine like shark teeth
It's a sign (it's a sign)It's a sign (it's a sign)It's a sign-what if you peaked early?
Does your husband know the way thatthe sunshine gleams from your wedding band?Does he know the wayDoes he know the wayOf the crickets that would convince me to call it a night?
Does he
Does he know the way I worshipOur love?Does your husband know the way thatthe sunshine gleams from your wedding band?

I don't care what you think as long as it's about meThe best of us can find happiness in miserySaid,I don't care what you think as long as it's about meThe best of us can find happiness in misery
Oh take a chance, let your body get a toleranceI'm not a chance, put a heat wave in your pantsPull a breath like another cigarettePawnshop heart trading up (trading up)
On the oracle in my chest,Let the guitar scream like a fascistSweat it out, shut your mouthfree love on the streets butin the alley it ain't that cheap, now
I don't care what you think as long as it's about meThe best of us can find happiness in miserySaid,I don't care what you think as long as it's about meThe best of us can find happiness in misery
