Lyrics

Fall Out Boy This Ain't A Scene It's An Arms Race lyrics

 
I am an arms dealer.
Fitting you with weapons in the form of words
And don't really care, which side wins
As long as the room keeps singing
That's just the business I'm in

This ain't a scene, it's a god damn arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a god damn arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a god damn arms race
I'm not a shoulder to cry on, but I digress

I'm a leading man
And the lies I weave are, are oh so intricate, oh so intricate
I'm a leading man
And the lies I weave are, are oh so intricate, oh so intricate

I wrote the gospel of giving up
(You look pretty sinking)
But the real bombshells have already sunk
(Pre-Madonnas of the gutter)
At night we're painting your trash gold while you sleep
Crashing not like hips or cars
No, more like p-p-p-parties
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/f/fall_out_boy/this_aint_a_scene_its_an_arms_race.html ]
This ain't a scene, it's a god damn arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a god damn arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a god damn arms race
Bandwagon's full. Please, catch another

I'm a leading man
And the lies I weave are, are oh so intricate, oh so intricate
I'm a leading man
And the lies I weave are, are oh so intricate, oh so intricate

All the boys who the dance floor didn't love
And all the girls whose lips couldn't move fast enough
Sing until your lungs give out

This ain't a scene, it's a god damn arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a god damn arms race
(Now you)
This ain't a scene, it's a god damn arms race
(Wear out the groove)
This ain't a scene, it's a god damn arms race
(Sing out loud)
This ain't a scene, it's a god damn arms race
(Oh, oh)
This ain't a scene, it's a god damn arms race

I'm a leading man
And the lies I weave are, are oh so intricate, oh so intricate
I'm a leading man
And the lies I weave are, are oh so intricate, oh so intricate

This Ain't A Scene It's An Arms Race meanings

The term arms race, in its original usage, is a competition between two or more parties for the best armed forces. Each party competes to produce larger numbers of weapons, greater armies, or superior military technology in a technological escalation. Nowadays the term is commonly used to describe any competition where there is no absolute goal, only the relative goal of staying ahead of the other competitors, essentially the goal of proving to be "better".

He is saying that he is using his words at weapons to weave his intricate/smartly thought out song lyrics to make is songs better or good enough to keep everyone dancing and singing even if your are not good at singing and dancing. It doesnt matter because in the war of music between all the artist in the world the main goal is to put out the most best music avaliable to anyone and everyone!

This song isnt a scene (aka causing drama) its a goal to have an awsome beat that makes you wanna shake it!

Um... I think this is about a scam, or scammer. When i listen to it, i can't help seeing some rich guy all dressed up sitting in the corner of some club somewhere as everyone fights or dances around him, being all smug, with a briefcase and people coming up to him all shifty-eyed saying "you got the goods? "

All in all, another awesome song by fall out boy! :d

I agree with 'halleluya' i think this song is about how people always want to categorize things but fob are saying you shouldn't categorize. Gotta love fall out boy!

One more to add to you, sunnie31 and emmy44, they wrote this to explain their so called 'emo' and 'pop punk' ,this song is about the conflicting ideas of their genre. And the truth is, they don't care about genres, they just play what they like. Peace baby.

Just gonna put out there that they got the lyrics wrong... It's supposed to be "and all the girls whose lips couldnt move fast enough" instead of "and all the girs whose hips couldnt move fast enough"... Just sayin that maybe if someone could do something about that then they should... But wat ev... And i love fall out boy!!!

Sunnie31, i agree completely with your meaning, but i have to say that in the versions where they censor god it sort of defeats the purpose of the song meaning, wouldn't you say so?
