Rat A Tat Lyrics - Fall Out Boy

1 It's Courtney bitch

2 Rat a tat tat, rat a tat tat tat, hey

3 No thesis existed for burning cities down at such a rampant rate

4 No graphics and no fucking powerpoint presentation

5 So they just DIY'd that shit and built their own bombs

6 She's his suicide blond, she's number than gold

7 Are you ready for another bad poem?

8 One more off key anthem

9 Let your teeth sink in

10 Remember me as I was not as I am

11 And I said "I'll check in tomorrow if I don't wake up dead,"

12 I kept wishing she had blonde ambition and she'd let it go to my head

13 Rat a tat tat, rat a tat tat tat, hey

14 If my love is a weapon

15 There's no second guessing when I say

16 Rat a tat tat, rat a tat tat tat, hey

17 If my heart is a grenade

18 You pull the pin and say:

19 We're all fighting growing old

20 We're all fighting growing old

21 In the hopes

22 Of a few minutes more

23 To get, get on St. Peter's list

24 But you need to lower your standards

25 Cause it's never

26 Getting any better than this

27 We are professional ashes of roses

28 This kerosene's live

29 You settled your score

30 This is where you come to beg, unborn and unshaven

31 Killing fields of fire to a congress of ravens

32 This is what we do baby, we nightmare you

33 I'm about to make the sweat roll backwards

34 And your heart beat in reverse

35 Our guts can't be reworked

36 As alone as a little white church in the middle of the desert getting burned

37 But I'll take your heart served up two ways

38 I sing a bitter song

39 I'm the lonelier version of you

40 I just don't know where it went wrong

41 Rat a tat tat, rat a tat tat tat, hey

42 If my love is a weapon

43 There's no second guessing when I say

44 Rat a tat tat, rat a tat tat tat, hey

45 If my heart is a grenade

46 You pull the pin and say:

47 We're all fighting growing old

48 We're all fighting growing old

49 In the hopes

50 Of a few minutes more

51 To get, get on St. Peter's list

52 But you need to lower your standards

53 Cause it's never

54 Getting any better than this

55 (Rat a tat tat, rat a tat tat tat, hey)

56 It's never getting any better than this

57 (Rat a tat tat, rat a tat tat tat, hey)

58 It's never getting any better than this

59 (Rat a tat tat, rat a tat tat tat, hey)

60 It's never getting any better than this

61 (Rat a tat tat, rat a tat tat tat, hey)

62 It's never getting any better than this

63 She's sick and she's wrong

64 She's young dirty blonde

65 And you sink inside her like a suicide bomb

66 He says "I've seen bigger"

67 She says "I've lit better"

68 And they throw the matches down into the glitter

69 Not a dry eye left in the house

70 Go boy, go boy run for your life

71 Go boy, go boy run for your life

72 Go boy, go boy run for your life

73 We're all fighting growing old

74 We're all fighting growing old

75 In the hopes

76 Of a few minutes more

77 To get, get on St. Peter's list

78 But you need to lower your standards

79 Cause it's never

80 Getting any better than this

81 Rat a tat tat, rat a tat tat tat, hey

82 It's never getting any better than this

83 Rat a tat tat, rat a tat tat tat, hey

84 It's never getting any better than this

85 Rat a tat tat, rat a tat tat tat, hey

86 It's never getting any better than this

87 Rat a tat tat, rat a tat tat tat, hey

88 It's never getting any better than this

89 Are you ready for another bad poem?
