(21-09-'06)They have announced plans to go on an indefinite hiatus. They had this to say:
As you've no doubt noticed, we haven't announced our fall tour dates yet. The reason being is that the band, after 9 years playing together, is going on an indefinite hiatus. We basically burned ourselves out after our 9 week tour this summer and most of us are looking forward to being home for awhile and having some sense of normality.
(26-12-'08) At Songs from a Scene, Lucky Boys Confusion announced they will be releasing a new album sometime in 2009 and played one of their new songs "It Should Have Been Me"
In 2009 the band released Closing Arguments, a full-length album mostly comprised of outtakes and demos.
In May 2012, guitarist and founding member Joe Sell passed away in Chicago at the age of 33. In 2017, Lucky Boys Confusion released their album "Stormchasers".
Hey
Lucky Boys Confusion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Right or wrong don't matter to me anyway, anyway
I said hey to my neighbors who keep peeping through their window
Why don't you go and get a life of your own, of your own
Hey it's my life
Hey it's my life
Those words they try to feed you I don't care, I don't care
I said hey to the foolish boy who likes the pretty girl
But he is scared, he is scared
She's a bitch anyway
Hey it's my life
Hey it's my life
Hey it's my life
And living is getting harder
I like to live life the way I do
And I know some folks here don't like me too
You say I'm a wasted conceited freak
But I don't (give a fuck) care anyway
Listen I've got something to say
I'm not hostile I'm just not afraid
To say things that you labeled taboo
You're just scared of facing the truth
Hey it's my life
Hey it's my life
Hey it's my life
And living is getting harder
Listen, I've got something to say
(Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
Listen, I've got something to say
(Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
Listen, I've got something to say
And living is getting harder
The song "Hey" by Lucky Boys Confusion is a rebellious anthem that celebrates individuality and rejects societal norms. The lyrics begin with the singer addressing their conscience, claiming they don't have one but it doesn't matter because right or wrong doesn't affect them anyway. This sets the tone for the rest of the song, as the singer asserts their independence and lack of concern for what others think. The second verse addresses nosy neighbors, telling them to mind their own business and get a life, further emphasizing the theme of individuality.
Later in the song, the singer encourages a friend not to listen to negative words and societal pressures, particularly regarding relationships and appearance, and declares that living is getting harder. The chorus repeats the line "Hey it's my life" as a defiant statement of ownership over one's life and choices, even if others disapprove or judge.

Sparks fly, I hit the ground running
Thumb in the air on the side of the road
Good work.. never comes easy
Hey Driver to the top of the world
Sparks fly, I hit the ground running
Thumb in the air on the side of the road
Good work.. never comes easy
Hey Driver to the top of the world
Put my life over my right shoulder with confidence
And here I come
Westbound
Leave the motor running because I'm on the run
In this crowded world I'll be high waiting when the last train comes
Dark Skies, I feel my heels burning
False high's to the end of the road
No doubt, I've got a lot of learning
Hey driver to the top of the world
Put my life over my right shoulder with confidence
And here I come
Westbound
Leave the motor running because I'm on the run
In this crowded world I'll be high waiting when the last train comes
Westbound
Leave the motor running because I'm on the run
In this crowded world I'll be high waiting when the last train comes
Hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey
Sparks fly, I hit the ground running
Thumb in the air on the side of the road
Good work.. never comes easy
Hey Driver to the top of the world
Sparks fly, I hit the ground running
Time stops at the end of the road
The big life, big deals, beginnings,
Hey Driver to the top of the world
Hey Driver to the top of the world
Hey Driver to the top of the world
Hey Driver to the top of the world
Hey Driver to the top of the world
Hey Driver to the top of the world
Hey Driver to the top of the world
Hey Driver to the top of the world
Hey Driver to the top of the world
