Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha
Boom
Show you the way
I wanna show you the way
I wanna show you the way
But you can stay
Give you my love
I wanna give you my love
I wanna give you my love
You can taste it
Give you the wings
I wanna give you the wings
I wanna give you the wings
Let's fly away
Give you the rage
I wanna give you the rage
I wanna give you the rage
Break out from your cage
This is how it goes
All right
Give me some time
You have to give me some time
You have to give me some time
Don't want to fade away
Burning in flames
I'm burning in flames
I'm burning in flames
You can't put out the fire
Lower your gun
Just lower your gun
Lower your gun
Or somebody gets hurt
Give you the rage
I wanna give you the rage
I wanna give you the rage
Break out from your
Cage




This is how it goes
All right

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Last night, she said
"Oh, baby, I feel so down
Oh, it turns me off
When I feel left out"
So I, I turned 'round
Oh, baby, don't care no more
I know this for sure
I'm walking out that door

[Bridge]
Well, I've been in town for just 'bout fifteen, oh, minutes now
And baby, I feel so down
And I don't know why
I keep walking for miles

[Chorus 1]
And say, people, they don't understand
No, girlfriends, they can't understand
Your grandsons, they won't understand
On top of this, I ain't ever gonna understand

[Verse 2]
Last night, she said
"Oh, baby, don't feel so down
Oh, it turns me off
When I feel left out"
So I, I turned 'round
Oh, baby, gonna be alright
It was a great big lie
'Cause I left that night, yeah

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus 2]
Oh, people, they don't understand
No, girlfriends, they don't understand
In spaceships, they won't understand
And me, I ain't ever gonna understand

[Verse 1]
Last night, she said
"Oh, baby, I feel so down
See, it turns me off
When I feel left out"
So I, I turned 'round
Oh, little girl, I don't care no more
I know this for sure
I'm walking out that door, yeah

@annicassi

the most indisputable fact about this video is it’s either the first take or their 1001st take.

@julianahmod1817

they did like 15 takes, getting more and more drunk each time, but this was actually their last which means they were probably wasted

@dzfaz

I'd say it's their 4th take. BTW Name one rock band these days who put out a live performance as their official music video. :D

@@LJGreni I only mentioned bands from the garage rock revival. I love mcr but they fall into the category of pop punk/emo.
