Lyrics for Austin, We Have A Problem as interpreted by idiotgirl

Austin, We Have A Problem Lyrics
Oh, We're pretty boys for secret girls
who never stood a chance in the world
Not ready for sincerity
I'd tell any lies to keep you listening

I gave you pretentious
I gave you indifference
But you only want undressed and defensless
With all your cheap words about hearts and accidents
Who are you kidding?

Listen Listen Listen Listen

Sincerity's in
So don't you sound like you mean it
Hold back your breath
In a year no one will even care if it's in
So don't you sound like you mean it
Hold back your breath
In a year...

Everyone loves an underdog
That's why you're singing along
With all your cheap words, who are you kidding?
We're pretty boys for secret girls
Who are you kidding?

Sincerity's in so don't you sound like you mean it
Hold back your breath,
In a year no one will even care if it's in
So don't you sound like you mean it
Hold back your breath
In a year...

Hey, everyone loves an underdog.
Hey, everyone loves an underdog.

Hook sets in
When this all ends
I will wish it never began
Or I will die without attention
When hook sets in
And when this all ends
I will wish it never began
Or I will die without attention

Sincerity's in,
So don't you sound like you mean it
Hold back your breath
In a year no one will even care if it's in
So don't you sound like you mean it
Hold back your breath
In a year...

its an ok song.i can see why they left it off of the album. i downloaded it off LIMEWIRE. just put in "austin, we have a problem" on "from under the cork tree demos".
the song is all about how in a year no one will care about them and that all the fans love an underdog--fans love to see kids new in the scene. meaning that they will be replaced sooner than later. right now, they are the underdog.

the first time i heard this song i thought NO WHAT HAS HAPPENED, it sounded like a step back and not anywhere near the greatness that has been scaled on FUCT, but then i gave it a chance and found it to be a real grower!

Quick correction, it's:

Oh, we're pretty boys for secret girls.

Great song.

eh, sigh doesn't make sense in the context, at least not to me. unless you're getting the lyrics from a booklet or something. don't you sound like you mean it makes sense to me as taking a jab at people who do the opposite of what is "cool" or "in" to be accepted in the scene. sincerity's in, so don't sound like you mean it. but i could be wrong.

It's a direct response to how they felt after playing South by Southwest.... definatly on of the downers that never quite made it, but its worth downloading

Got to agree with cmama06...only Patrick could pull that sttuter off with an ounce of sex appeal.

This is one of my favorite Fall Out Boy songs. I'm so sad it's not on an album. I can understand leaving it off of 'From Under the Cork Tree', though, as it wouldn't fit at all. Maybe it'll be on another album. I can hope, anyways.

This song is one of my favourite Fall Out Boy songs .. I can totally sympathise with Pete on this one (he writes the lyrics, derrr.) There are so many kids I know who name check bands just for scene points or whatever. Grr @ them.

i love this song.. at first i didn't now i do!

but anyway...

Oh, We're pretty boys for secret girls
who never stood a chance in the world
[this band is really the only thing they can do cause they can't really go through with anything else remedial about working life]
Not ready for sincerity
I'd tell any lies to keep you listening
[hes desprate to keep people listening so hes ready to make it all up to keep the fans coming in]

I gave you pretentious
I gave you indifference
But you only want undressed and defensless
[all the fans really want out of him is what he hasn't given already.. his deepest darkest secrets and insecurities]
With all your cheap words about hearts and accidents
Who are you kidding?
[i think its the crowd/fans talking to him]

Sincerity's in
So don't you sound like you mean it
Hold back your breath
In a year no one will even care if it's in
[him saying don't worry about fall out boy cause its just a trend... you sing just because its the cool thing to do anyway. OR the true fans won't care wether or not its cool cause they really stand behind them (a little ambigious)]

Everyone loves an underdog
That's why you're singing along
[with the chips stacked against them the tickets keep on selling]

Hook sets in
When this all ends
I will wish it never began
Or I will die without attention
[hes looking forward to when he becomes famous.. hes saying that hes wanting it more than anything now but then he will look back and realize how much of a fucked up decision it was. but if he doesn't hes gonna die as a nobody..]
