This became more apparent when his wife filed for divorce and his music became harder than it had been and his lyrics became more personal and harsh. He played keys on one New Found Glory song and often joined them on stage during their Back to Basics tour in the spring of 2005. More recently, Dewees has announced playing keyboard on some of My Chemical Romance's new cd. When asked about "Reggie" he said that once the new MCR cd comes out, I will be touring with them and become a full blown member of MCR.
The fifth studio album titled Last Stop: Crappy Town was released June 17, 2008.
What The Hell Is Stipulation
Reggie and the Full Effect Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She doesn't like getting hurt when serious relations end
He only wants to see her whenever she will permit
He only wants to be with her and quit feeling like shit
All that he can give, he gives her
more then he really should now
whenever they meet he'll see her
She feels good
This simple situation is easier unsaid
He knows just by him asking her it goes straight up to her head
All that he can give, he gives her
More then he really should now
Whenever they meet he'll see her
And he'll tell her that he's happy
If she could give the time she see that everythings fine
Its not up to me
She wishes that he would see its nothing to be that she will for he
She says she'll never need a boyfriend, she's happy with her friends
She's keeping all her secrets with her up until the end
All that he can give, he gives her
More then he really should now
Whenever they meet he'll see her
And he'll tell her that he's happy
She feels good
The lyrics to Reggie and the Full Effect's song "What The Hell Is Stipulation" narrate a complicated relationship where the woman involved doesn't want a boyfriend and prefers to just maintain friendships in order to avoid the pain and hurt that comes with the end of serious relationships. On the other hand, the man involved only wants to be with her and is willing to give up more than he should in this situation. Despite this difficult dynamic, the couple still meet and the man always tells the woman how happy he is to be with her, which makes her feel good.
This song is essentially about two individuals who have contrasting desires in a relationship. While one person prefers to avoid heartbreak, the other is willing to risk it all for a chance at love. The lyrics highlight how difficult it can be when both parties are not on the same page, but also illustrate the importance of communication and honesty in any relationship. The woman in this situation may never change her mind, but the man continues to pursue her in the hope that he can win her over.
