20 Dollar Nose Bleed Lyrics
Have you ever wanted to disappear?
and join a monestary Go out and preach on manic street where will i be when i wake up next to a stranger on a passenger plane, passenger plane Permanent jetlag Please take me back, please take be back I'm a stray dog sick Please let me in, please let me in When life keeps tripping Singing vows before we exchange smoke rings Give me a pen Call me Mr. Benzedrine But don't let the doctor in I wanna blow off steam and Call me Mr. Benzedrine (Mr. Benzedrine) and don't let the doctor, don't let the doctor in It feels like 14 carats but no clarity When I look at the man who would be king The man who would be king goes to the desert to sing war his dad rehearsed came back with flags on coffins and said we won, oh, we won Permanent jetlag Please take me back, please take be back I'm a stray dog sick Please let me in (Please let me in) When life keeps tripping Singing vows before we exchange smoke rings Give me a pen Call me Mr. Benzedrine But don't let the doctor in I wanna blow off steam and Call me Mr. Benzedrine (Mr. Benzedrine) and don't let the doctor, don't let the doctor in B-b-b-b-Benzedrine my, my, my Benzedrine my B-b-b-b-Benzedrine now The wonderful feeling that is the rest of the proof is on the television, on the Call me Mr. Benzedrine But don't let the doctor in I wanna blow off steam and Call me Mr. Benzedrine (Mr. Benzedrine) but don't let the doctor, don't let the doctor in Have you ever wanted to disappear? -------- It's not me, it's you actually, it's the taxidermy of you and me Untie the balloons around my neck and ground me I'm just a racehorse on the track Send me back to the glue factory Always thought I'd float away And never come back But I've got enough miles on my car to fly the boys home on my own But you know me: I like being all alone And keeping you all alone .. Your kids are snoring You say you're not listening and I said I'm wishing..

"and keeping you all alone
and the charts are boring
and the kids are snoring
and my ego's in a sling
you say you're not listening and I said I'm wishing"

but I seriously do believe that Panic at the Disco is in this song.
I really like it though.
because I was thinking the same thing.

and it's nice to hear a new FOB that doesn't have the same guitar riff and repetitively saying "get" (though i do loves me my "the (shipped) gold standard" which also sounds different)

Semi-Charmed Life is about crystal meth. I don't know if that is what you were talking about, but that's the only 3eb song i can think of right now that's about drugs.

"Later bathing in the afterglow
Two lines of coke I cut with Draino
And her nose starts to bleed
A most beautiful ruby red"

very different for a fall out boy song though
Anybody else think the tune at the start sounds like "Merry Happy" by Kate Nash?

They sound so good together.. its weird that they sound similar though. Patricks voice is deep and soulful and brendons is higher but if people hadnt pointed it out, i probably woulnt of noticed it.

My guess - it's a song to the girlfriends of the band members likening the band's return from touring to soldiers coming home from war; exhausted (drug dependent?), damaged, etc..
05-21-2009
The first half of this song actually references to the 9/11, e.g: "Who will I be when I wake up next to a stranger? On a passenger plane - passenger plane - Permanent Jetlag - Please take me back!" - which basically is saying, how will my life change if I was to survive and realise I am a victim of a terrorist attack and I am on a passenger plane next to a stranger (whom may or may not be dead.) Death being the Permanet Jetlag reference. "Please take me back," - meaning to in some way, rewind time to just a moment ago when I was in safely in an areoplane.

and i was hearing "Mr. Pleasantry" at first, but it's one of those things that if you read it while you listen to the song it could sound like both. lol.

When I look at the man who would be king
The man who would be king goes to the
desert to sing war his dad rehearsed
came back with flags on coffins and said
we won, oh, we won
Thats seems like a pretty obvious Bush reference. The man who would be King (Bush Jr) goes to the desert aka Iraq and the middle east in general for war. His dad (Bush Sr) rehearsed it because the US had the whole Persian Gulf War when he was President.

came back with flags on coffins and said
we won, oh, we won

i kinda hear "the man keeps tripping," which maybe could refer to bush? "singing vows before we exchange smoke rings" could maybe mean promising things that never happened or that we didn't want to happen. but i'm not sure about that.

amazing.
brendon's backing vocals add a lot to this already great song.
i think the song is talking about being somewhere you don't want to be,
which is easy to identify with as well as catchy musically.

does pete not know what taxidermy means? (stuffed animals) doesn't seem to make much sense, and it wouldn't be the first time he's used a word wrongly....
12-17-2008
12-19-2008
This sounds like he is describing what is wrong with a relationship as a famous break-up line is it's not you, it's me, but he reversed that. Then when he says it's actually the taxidermy of you and me I think he means that the problem isn't either of them, it's that while trying to keep up the outer appearance of their relationship they took out all of the emotion and inner beauty because in taxidermy you remove all of the insides of an animal in order to preserve it's outer appearance. Thats my take on this line, hope that made sense to you.
12-21-2008
like its not real.
like you can make it look legit but it never will be.
so kind of like their relationship isn't as together as they'd hoped or thought or what other people think it is.
like,
have you ever noticed how real and alive(but still) taxidermists can make the animals look?
but they're not.
catch my drift?
12-28-2008
However, I think also that "The taxidermy of you and me" could be the memories of whoever the you and me are. Like, the taxidermy would be what is left of them, the outside of their relationship; the image, with none of the deep proper stuff left.

If you've heard GINASFS, then it makes more sense.
People are filling a dead relationship with meaningless things.
06-03-2009
Pete knows what taxidermy means; you don't.
06-18-2009
I don't think he picks a word if he doesn't know what it means, actually I believe he likes to play with words and their multiple meanings, that's why his songs have so many ways to be interpreted, and that's why I like this band..
English is not my native language, so I have to work really hard to get to understand what their songs are talking about!
