LYRICS
Have you ever wondered
about our old nu-metal friends
and what became of them?
Turns out I saw them, a couple of days ago.
They were laughing, and drinking, and smoking, and singing
"Come on can you count all the notches in your belt?"
I'd rather not, let's just say I'm starving myself.
"Baby put your name down on a piece of paper."
I don't want no savior, baby, I just wanna have a good time.
At least I'm not as sad as I used to be.
They said "Hey Nate!"
"Yeah, it's been awhile,"
"So are you gonna stay?"
Ha! I began to smile, and I said:
"You should have seen me, a couple of years ago,
I was laughing, and drinking, and smoking, and singing."
"Come on can you count all the loves that didn't last?"
It's such a gas when you bring up the past.
"Baby put your name down on a piece of paper."
I don't want no savior, baby, I just wanna get it on!
At least I'm not as sad as I used to be.
They said:
"We would have seen you two years ago,
had you stuck around, or come out to a show.
But you was taken over by Rock 'N' Roll...
while we were laughing, and drinking, and smoking, and singing...
So I left.
That is it.
That's my life.
Nothing is sacred.
I don't keep friends, I keep acquainted.
I'm not a prophet, but I'm here to profit.
That's all.
I'm gone.
That's my life.
Nothing is sacred.
I don't fall in love, I just fake it.
I don't fall in love,
I don't fall in love.

Ikr! I like listening to the album on repeat, it's very entertaining. Not only is the instrumental perfect for a musical context, but the lyrics can really get your attention. They tell a story you wouldn't want to miss. Someone really needs to write a good musical based on Aim and Ignite. I definitely wouldn't be stingy paying to watch that

l Xephinity I don't think they hate it for being catchy, I think they hate it because other fun songs are extremely underrated while naive "fans" campaign for "we are young" People need to give up on hit songs, give bands a chance because 99% of real fans say "you should listen to their real stuff" about every band.

Fun like Queen are a band with enormous potential who have just started discovering their style. i am a fan of Queen and to me they are unique but i also agree that Fun are similar to them in a sense. Nate's voice is amazing but very different from Freddie's. Like him though he capable of singing many completely different styles. Fun are the best band of today! and them being compared to Queen is a huge compliment!
