before I looked at lyric videos I always thought it said that too. I'd heard the song probably a year ago and only looked at a lyric video a few days ago.
+Aaron Quintero oh my god so I told one of my teachers that I liked Gerard way and he said you would like very then... I don't know how this relates but just thought of it randomly...

My teacher is suuuuper strict and she saw me with earphones in so she, obviously, hit me with the "care to share what you're listening to with the rest of us?" and of course it just so happened to be at the "DREAM, FOR THE DEAD" part ;-;
Well, since I illegally ripped Heathens from CZcams before it was officially released, I guess now would be an especially appropriate time to play this song. Jails gonna be fuckin lit
if you think this song has a long title... "Our Lawyer Made Us Change the Name of This Song So We Wouldn't Get Sued" "I've Got a Dark Alley and a Bad Idea That Says You Should Shut Your Mouth (Summer Song") "Champagne for My Real Friends, Real Pain for My Sham Friends" "I Slept with Someone in Fall Out Boy and All I Got Was This Stupid Song Written About Me" "A Little Less Sixteen Candles, a Little More 'Touch Me'" "Get Busy Living Or Get Busy Dying (Do Your Part To Save The Scene And Stop Going To Shows") "This aint a scene, its an arms race" "I'm like a lawyer with the way that im always trying to get you off (me and you") "Ive got all this ringing in my ears and none on my fingers" - All by Fall Out Boy "The only difference between martyrdom and suicide is press coverage" "Lying is the most fun a girl can have without taking her clothes off" "Theres a good reason these tables are numbered honey, you just havent thought of it yet" -All by Panic! At The Disco
its true, theres a picture of Brendon Urie (lead singer of panic at the disco) where Panic! at the disco is playing a concert, and brendon had said, "i forgot the name of the song, its really such a long title, doesnt matter, we're gonna play it anyway" xD
and then theres You might think he loves you for your money but I know what he really loves you for it's your brand new leopard skin pillbox hat by Death Grips
Puffball Daze WTTBP KILLS ME EVERYTIME!!!! Today I played a random playlist and that came up like 5 times..... long story short I almost started crying in the middle of class
When this album first came out I remover hearing my cousin playing this and I asked what song he was playing and he said "Big kid music.." And so I kept asking to hear it and I remember how much I loved this song so this is the first MCR song I ever heard ^-^ I STILL LOVE IT!
Keep telling yourself it was a giggle, keep telling yourself that... It's for the best. Gerard live on stage with this song, you die and don't come back...
Who else what excited when they found out that they got the lyrics "Do you have the keys to the hotel?! Cause im gonna string this motherfucker on fire!!" right??
So I got this album for my birthday and put it on my phone and it's great. One day my family and I were all going out to dinner and listening to my dad's music through Bluetooth and stuff, and then this comes on and I FLIPPED OUT turns out my dad put all the music I got (Green Day, MCR, FOB) on his phone because he was curious
I always hear Life is but a dream for the dead and we'll I won't go down on myself but I'll go down on my frank and it's hard to get that out of my head
This has become my fave MCR song lately...but then I change my fave MCR song reg. Oh f***...i love them all..there is no fave...just love em all and Gerard :D

my best friend listened to this song right before his tragic passing nine months ago. his heart stopped. he was the biggest MCR fan i ever knew. RIP dove, fly high
lol when I was like 6 or 7 I would grab drum heads and play along to this song. and this is also the first song that ive listened to from mcr and my favorite song.
This is so underrated. I listened lots of different music but this is the single most energetic and hype shit I've ever heard. Like, I could punch through a wall to this. Fucking mental.
I swear Gerard has the most distinctive voice, every song I hear from mcr is so different. Like jet-set his voice sounds so different but he always has that signature tone he does where he carry’s a word with that angelic ass tone
middle of a restaurant : proposing come with ur arms high : someone hating on them bullet through a flock of doves : gay marriage wasn't legal then that's the symbolism I've gotten so far
People! Bert McCracken from The Used is the one making the weird noises in the second verse, laughing, high vocals, screaming. Then he starts in the second half of the second chorus. Screams again in the bridgey part. "do you have the keys to the hotel?" etc. He continues to the end with the laughing and shit. There ya go.
"just two men as god had made us" "ill kiss your lips again" someone else pointed this out, but theyre talking about shipping while im talking about the fact that im gay
Me when I'm a parent Okay kids let sing Kids: row row row your boat gently down the stream merely merely merely merely.....life is but a DREAM FOR THE DEAD
I like how half the people listening to this (judging from the comments) have 0 clue about what the song is actually about. It's a great song, but it's pretty fucked up when you understand it.

Why isn't this song more popular? Definitely one of my favorite songs by them.
Same.
It’s actually becoming quite popular with the my chem bandom
Unfortunately I only know it because I heard it on a Fall Out Boy station on Apple Music.
Agreed.
Everyone ranks it as the worst revenge song but I just don't get why
They make me do push ups in drag now I just see Gerhard in a Cinderella costume doing push-ups in jail
lol "Gerhard"

+Maddiepie 843 its bert
+Kieraisnotonamazing who's bert
Bert McCracken from The Used
Guys its Gerard
I'm at the point where I cry listening to even this.
I cry laughing idk the part about dressing in drag always gets me because we all know gee would look great as a chick
Omg tru tho
To be fair….. it’s a pretty depressing song
*violently head-bands*
+Michaela Price ...It's head bang. Not head-band. Do you even rock?
Shit... autocorrect. Yes I rock. XD
XD Lmao. Good. Cause we were gonna have a problem missy xD
Ikr im at school tho
maddy murphy Me too... so I must control myself. :(
I think this is my favorite MCR song. This song just embodies the ridiculously dramatic energy I love from this band.
Mu most favorite MCR song even how many years later
if you think this song has a long title...
"Our Lawyer Made Us Change the Name of This Song So We Wouldn't Get Sued"
"I've Got a Dark Alley and a Bad Idea That Says You Should Shut Your Mouth (Summer Song")
"Champagne for My Real Friends, Real Pain for My Sham Friends"
"I Slept with Someone in Fall Out Boy and All I Got Was This Stupid Song Written About Me"
"A Little Less Sixteen Candles, a Little More 'Touch Me'"
"Get Busy Living Or Get Busy Dying (Do Your Part To Save The Scene And Stop Going To Shows")
"This aint a scene, its an arms race"
"I'm like a lawyer with the way that im always trying to get you off (me and you")
"Ive got all this ringing in my ears and none on my fingers"
- All by Fall Out Boy
"The only difference between martyrdom and suicide is press coverage"
"Lying is the most fun a girl can have without taking her clothes off"
"Theres a good reason these tables are numbered honey, you just havent thought of it yet"
-All by Panic! At The Disco
ikr! and panic at the disco
its true, theres a picture of Brendon Urie (lead singer of panic at the disco) where Panic! at the disco is playing a concert, and brendon had said, "i forgot the name of the song, its really such a long title, doesnt matter, we're gonna play it anyway" xD
and then theres You might think he loves you for your money but I know what he really loves you for it's your brand new leopard skin pillbox hat by Death Grips
That's another reason I love both those bands, along with this one. Long titles ftw xD
Totally Fall out Boy not Panic At The Disco
makes me think of the frerard kiss
listening to this with headphones is quite the experience
Definitely
I always listen to it with headphones
Listening without them would be a sin.
Gerard made this in his underwear
wellllllll ....... awesome
I like this song even more now ;)
Unicorns are Bae "oh god". guessing you're new? welcome to the MCarmy. (if you're not new dont take offence, it was a joke.)
Look away children 😂
I didn't need to know that........
Me: idk this isn't my favor- * opening chord plays * IN THE MIDDLE
Oml xD
Same.. except almost all their songs are my favorites
Same, except for WTTBP
It's too painful I can't - *_wHeN I was_*
Puffball Daze WTTBP KILLS ME EVERYTIME!!!! Today I played a random playlist and that came up like 5 times..... long story short I almost started crying in the middle of class
There's no other band that compares to MCR.
Michael Garzone nope
amen
Agreed
uHH no tea, no shade but just pierce the veil :)
Tøp Is better
This is my favorite my chemical romance song the laugh at the end is my favorite part!
Edie Delgadillo what time is it at?
When this album first came out I remover hearing my cousin playing this and I asked what song he was playing and he said "Big kid music.." And so I kept asking to hear it and I remember how much I loved this song so this is the first MCR song I ever heard ^-^ I STILL LOVE IT!
The first one I ever heard was Helena.
+Mickizzle mine was mama or famous last words
the first one i heard was SING...in german radio aödösnfsöäsöes back in the days, when there was good music on the radio
Mine was teenagers
mine was sing when i was very young like 6 or 7 on that tap tap revolution app my cousin had on like the very first phone 😂
now everytime I hear this song I think of Gerard and Frank kissing in the middle of this song
and all the fanfictions start writing themselves
+Chemical Rømances are Making me Phanic! yep pretty much
+memeø 210 beta There's a smut called Destroya it's p good
jammer4fdvh I've heard of it
You're welcome 😊
I'm not okay
*I'm soggy from the emo*
Alexis ...
Alexis same
Alexis do you promise
I swear to Way
Alexis McInnis (you promise)
eating breakfast intensifies
But, did you eat this in the center of a restaurant? Dennys maybe.
my sentiments exactly
I love this song because its about becoming someone's bitch in prison and i think that's beautiful
Me too
Is it,actually about that
Athina Tate I read that fanfic not to long ago and it is really interesting.
I'm reading that rn
Athina Tate that fic is amazing
The first verse is the best overall.
ikr
agreed
We were allowed our earphones in school and i was literally sitting there trying my hardest not to sing the start or at least mouth the words.
Bert's back up vocals in the second verse make me want to cry
The giggle at the end is perfect okay? Okay.
Keep telling yourself it was a giggle, keep telling yourself that... It's for the best. Gerard live on stage with this song, you die and don't come back...
Loki Laufeyson and FRANKly I wouldn't mind not coming back from an mcr concert
I'm Whatsername I second that
Lol what's with the little giggle at the end, I love it! XD
that's the sound of forgiveness..... and a little insanity
its Gerard Way, what else wold you expect? xD
It's cute
Genesis It's actually Bert McCraken from the Used, giggling at the end. He also screams and sings throughout the song, in the background.
Eddie Rae
yeah i was wondering that when i listened to this yesterday, sounded just like him
is this a Fall Out Boy title from before the hiatus?
im
***** joke dude joke.
Brandon Thompson i cant
Why do i want to see Gerard do pushups in drag? Seriously i need this!!!
I know whst
*what
I wanna see Gerard sing this in his underwear (fun fact: Gerard actually recorded this song in his underwear)
Omg! same
And Frank’s sitting on his back ;)
bum bum bum *in the middle of a gun fight, in the center of a restaurant...*
They say, come with your arms raised high
Well, Their never gonna get me. Like a bullet through a flock of doves! ;3
To wage, this war against your faith in me
Your life...Will never be the samee. 😀
on your mothers eyes say a prayer :3
the laugh at the end has got to be the best part
For some reason I heard it as "I'll go down on my friends"....
sorry to ruin everyone's happiness, but the laugh at the end is actually from Bert, the singer of The Used. he also screamed in this song
my sentiments exactly
Who else what excited when they found out that they got the lyrics "Do you have the keys to the hotel?! Cause im gonna string this motherfucker on fire!!" right??
So I got this album for my birthday and put it on my phone and it's great. One day my family and I were all going out to dinner and listening to my dad's music through Bluetooth and stuff, and then this comes on and I FLIPPED OUT turns out my dad put all the music I got (Green Day, MCR, FOB) on his phone because he was curious
Bert McCracken laughing the word dra-ah-ag is literally the best part of this song
my god I come back after 10 years ago and I still love it as much as I did then
Does anyone else just live for the little giggle at the end? It's freaking adorable
I always hear
Life is but a dream for the dead and we'll I won't go down on myself but I'll go down on my frank and it's hard to get that out of my head
AJJSJAJSJAJS SAME

Same!
Exactly how I feel!! This and Cemetery Drive are my favorites this...week xD
I just like MCR not Gerard ot whatever its called, but then again I haven't listened to it yet
H Berger saw Gerard Way on Saturday at Leeds Fest..was amazing..his new stuff is growing on me :D
no way!! thats awesome! you are so lucky...
why does the beginning sound so french
i love this comment so much oml
I don't see it.
I was thinking the same think XD
I guess it's the best thing in this song
sneakyMCR Howlter you just don’t listen to French music
that "giggle" at the end... one of the best parts in this song
I thought part of the lyrics said "I won't go down on myself but I'll go down on my friends" oml...
Ans oh lord
Ans Oh god..
*cough*Frank*cough*
Meee
I can't unsee these final screams being a depiction of stereotypical consequences of dropping the soap
gee: DO YOU HAVE THE KEYS TO THE HOTEL
me: to the hotel belle muerte?
this song is freaking art.
It really is
I KISS YOUR LIPS AGA- *falls off table and onto face* - _a true and tragic story by the fuck up named alexia_ (A True and Tragic Story by the Fuck Up Named Alexia - by Fall Out Boy)

I love his little laugh at the end.

my best friend listened to this song right before his tragic passing nine months ago. his heart stopped. he was the biggest MCR fan i ever knew. RIP dove, fly high
lol when I was like 6 or 7 I would grab drum heads and play along to this song. and this is also the first song that ive listened to from mcr and my favorite song.
you were the coolest 7 year old ever
Maddiepie 843 Ahh thanks lol.
This is so underrated. I listened lots of different music but this is the single most energetic and hype shit I've ever heard. Like, I could punch through a wall to this. Fucking mental.
I hate headbanging but I WILL headbang to the chorus of this song no matter the circumstances.
THAT FRICKING GIGGLE AT THE END WHY
Best song ever ... than you MCR for songs like this one i personally believe this was their best album.
I swear Gerard has the most distinctive voice, every song I hear from mcr is so different. Like jet-set his voice sounds so different but he always has that signature tone he does where he carry’s a word with that angelic ass tone
that giggle at the end killed me
I keep wanting to sing the chorus of "This Ain't a Scene, it's an Arms Race" by Fall Out Boy.
Electric Flamez I know ;-;
The whole song is incredible but I have to say I really loved the beginning .m.
I could literally play this over and over and not get tired of it
The guitar riff around 0:30 always gets me good
middle of a restaurant : proposing
come with ur arms high : someone hating on them
bullet through a flock of doves : gay marriage wasn't legal then
that's the symbolism I've gotten so far
You ruined the song.
Roderik Arroyo How?
Hey,uhh...can you not? It's ruining the song.
My Name Jeff Why? Are you homophobic? Because if so, you shouldn’t be listening to MCR-Gerard would beat your scrawny ass if he knew.
My Name Jeff Okay. I don’t really like the comment either. I really don’t think that’s the symbolism in those lyrics, really
People! Bert McCracken from The Used is the one making the weird noises in the second verse, laughing, high vocals, screaming. Then he starts in the second half of the second chorus. Screams again in the bridgey part. "do you have the keys to the hotel?" etc. He continues to the end with the laughing and shit. There ya go.
Thank you
finally oms
the quality's lower than my self esteem, but I can't expect much from 2009
I was listening to this as I read the last chapter of "A Splitting Of The Mind" my heart hurts fml
you read my mind
His face may have looked like moonlight but there were definitely no stars in his eyes
When I first heard that song that Fan Fic was the first thing that came to my mind
“But nobody cares if you’re losing myself... am I losing myself? Well, I miss my mom!” 💔
"just two men as god had made us" "ill kiss your lips again" someone else pointed this out, but theyre talking about shipping while im talking about the fact that im gay
I just love Bert's backing vocals in this ❤
the laugh at the end is the reason why I am now dead
1:14 my favorite part. I love dat HIGH NOTE
this soothes my soul
i love it how they quickly switch the rhythm of the song omg
"On your mothers I say a prayer"
But we all go to hell anyway

That giggle at the end tho. It always gets me
Most iconic mcr line: I miss my mom
Ava McQueen I disagree, when I was a young boy... etc
I haven't listened to this band in years yet for some reason this song has been stuck in my head all day
GEES LITTLE LAUGH AT THE END OMG ARE THESE TEARS
so long .........
* Remembers Helena *
AND GOOD NIGHT SO LONG AND GOOD NIGHT
Me when I'm a parent
Okay kids let sing
Kids: row row row your boat gently down the stream merely merely merely merely.....life is but a DREAM FOR THE DEAD
When it said 'What they ask of you will make you want to say "So long..."' I screamed 'aND GOOD NIGHT'
Sorry not sorry
i love this song so much omg
my fav song by them
I like how half the people listening to this (judging from the comments) have 0 clue about what the song is actually about. It's a great song, but it's pretty fucked up when you understand it.
is it prison rape? is that what its about?
Ryan Schock right
