[Intro - Phone Call]

Answering Machine: Hello. You have reached the voicemail of singer/songwriter Matty Mullins. He's currently away from the phone spending time with his supermodel wife or writing your next favorite record. Leave a message after the beep and he will return your call as soon as possible. Thank you and have a nice day

Kellin: What's up Matty? It's Kellin. Hey, yo dude, um, so I got this track I need you on, man, and I'm really excited about it and I think it's gonna be sick. Uh, kids are definitely not ready for this shit, man. So give me a call back. Let's change the world. Alright, man. Peace


[Verse 1: Kellin Quinn]

Welcome to a brand new generation

You don't know, so let me help you understand

You see, you try to build yourself a reputation

So you can prove to everyone that you're the man

So why is it us that make you feel so helpless?

You better get it out while you still can

‘Cause when those lights go on around you

And nobody gives a damn

You're gonna wish that you had taken our advice

I've been down, I've been out

Now I can't keep my face off a cover

That ain't what it's about

You still have so much left to learn


[Chorus: Kellin Quinn]

Congratulations

They say you're the man

Congratulations

You see, I do what you can't

And until they go and take my name off of the shelves (Guess what?)

Congratulations, we're gonna give you hell

(Get 'em, Matty!)


[Verse 2: Matty Mullins]

They try to do it like me, but they do it all wrong

I'll pass the torch when someone better comes along (Yeah right)

Congratulations to every label that ever turned me down

Me and my top-20 record aren't too worried about it now

I hope this lesson taught is a lesson learned

Now go and bury your head while me and Kell rule the world!


[Chorus: Matty Mullins]

Congratulations

They say you're the man (Yes, I am)

Congratulations

You see I do what you can't

And until they go and take my name off of the shelves

Congratulations

(Let's give 'em hell!)


[Guitar Solo]


[Bridge: Kellin Quinn]

Could you please give us the spotlight? 'Cause I have something to say

You may not like the subject, but I'll say this anyway

We're so sick of all this so-called shitty music that you play

So could you please do us a favor and stay the fuck out of our way!?


[Chorus]

Congratulations

They say you're the man

Congratulations

You see, I do what you can't

And until they go and take my name off of the shelves

Woah, please, 'cause I need to make more room for myself

(Is that good?)

Congratulations
