  • There might be something outside your window
    But you'll just never know
    There could be something right past the turnpike gates
    But you'll just never know

    If my velocity starts to make you sweat
    Then just don't let go
    And if the heaven ain't got a vacancy
    Then we just, then we just, then we just, then we just
    Get up and go

    Ladies and gentleman, truth
    Is now acceptable fame
    Is now injectable process the progress
    This core is critical faith
    Is unavailable lives
    Become incredible now
    Please understand that

    I can't slow down
    I won't be waiting for you
    I can't stop now because I'm dancing

    This planet's ours to defend
    Ain't got no time to pretend
    Don't fuck around, this is our last chance

    If my velocity starts to make you sweat
    Then just don't let go
    'Cause the emergency room got no vacancy
    And we just, and we just, and we just, and we just
    Get up and go

    (Who) they want you to be
    (Who) they wanted to see
    (Go) kill the party with me and never go home
    Who they want you to be
    Who they wanted to see
    Just leave the party with me and never go home

    You're unbelievable
    Ah, so unbelievable
    Ah, you ruin everything
    Oh, you better go home

    I'm unbelievable
    Yeah, I'm undefeatable
    Yeah, let's ruin everything, blast it to the back row

    They sell presentable
    Young, and so ingestible
    Sterile and collectible
    Safe, and I can't stand it
    This is a letter, my word
    Is the beretta, the sound of my vendetta
    Against the ones that planned it

    If my velocity starts to make you sweat
    Then just don't let go
    'Cause the emergency room got no vacancy
    Tell me who do you trust, do you trust
    And we just get up and go

    Who they want you to be
    Who they wanted to see
    (Go) kill the party with me and never go home
    Who they want you to be
    Who they wanted to see
    Just leave the party with me and never go home

    You keep eternity, give us the radio
    Deploy the battery, we're taking back control
    Engage the energy, light up the effigy
    No chance to take it slow
    By now I'm sure you know, know, know, know, know (one, two, three, four)
    Get up and go

    (Who) they want you to be
    (Who) they wanted to see
    (Go) kill the party with me and never go home
    Who they want you to be
    Who they wanted to see
    Just leave the party with me and never go home

    Are we still having fun?
    Are you holding the gun?
    Take the money and run
    We'll never go home

    I've got nothing to lose
    You've got nothing to say
    And we're leaving today
    We'll never go home

    I think I better go now
    I think I better go now
    I think I better go now (go home)
    Gonna go now, gonna go now, gonna go now, gonna go now
    Go now, gonna go now
    Go home Writer/s: Frank Iero, Gerard Way, Michael Way, Ray Toro

  • Vicky from Chesapeake, Va"Gerard Way delivers a strident call-to-arms on this blistering punk-funk track. MCR were inspired by the Rolling Stones and in particular their song "Paint it Black" for this cut. "Mikey, Gerard and I were listening to the Stones and we noticed how their songs are very repetitive but one guitar is playing throughout," guitarist Ray Toro explained to Spin magazine. "And the way we built a lot of the record was by taking it eight or 16 bars at a time and used melodies that would work over an entire verse. Which is kind of strange" - above comment
