One And Only
Fall Out Boy Timbaland Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Timbaland]
I'm head over heels for someone I
That I really can't deal with
I want to block her out my mind
But I really can't do it
I tell myself this the last time
I'm a let her do this to me
Whenever we do spend time
I realize that I can't get enough of you

[Patrick Stump]
Wipe that smile off your fucking face
(Then I say to you) Wipe that smile off your face
(Then I say to you) Wipe that smile off your fucking face
(Then I say to you) Wipe that smile off your face

[Chorus]

I wear scarves and hoods
'Cause they're the only poker face that I've got left
And everything I love about you is a mess
Smash the mirror, and break the palm reader's hand
I want to be better than I am

(Then I say to you) Wipe that smile off your fucking face
(Then I say to you) Wipe that smile off your face
(Then I say to you) Wipe that smile off your fucking face
(Then I say to you) Wipe that smile off your face

[Chorus]

[Timbaland]
Girl, just look what you've done
How could you do this to me?
I gotta put my foot down
I can't let you do this to me
I can't forget those good ol' times
And all the things you've been doing to me
I wanna hit that one more time
I'm in love, what you're doing to me
I'm a say it loud, right here
Let's fuck in this crowd
Why we arguing?
I thought me and you were supposed to be
Friends
Let's chill for a minute
Better yet, we need to heal for a minute
Baby, put down the knife
Sometime I wanna save your life
But I'm cool

[Chorus]

We don't got no fuckin' band
We ain't got no speakers; no fuckin' microphones set up
Timberland, son of a bitch
Just get the fuck outta my house now
'Fore I get too mad and I can't turn back
Hey
Didn't I say get the fuck out?




Get the fuck out
Ha ha ha
