http://www.seeklyrics.com/lyrics/Fall-Out-Boy/Grand-Theft-Autumn-Where-Is-Your-Boy.html

these are the lyrics to Grand Theft Autumn by Fall Out Boy. The first lines of the song "Where is your boy tonight? i hope he is a gentleman maybe he won't find out what I know, you were the last good thing about this part of town." this part is almost spoken in the begining of the song so i get that its about a girl that he wants but she is with someone else. That is actually what the song is about. It doens't really relate to me I must say but I think its a cute story and its very realistic. In general though I beleive that I like songs with lyrics somewhat like this because I think there entertaining and reaistic in a teenagers life.

FALL OUT BOY!

Fall out Boy has only become popular over the past couple of years. In that time it they have become very popular very fast BUT i beleive that there is actually no one genre or artist that can depict my generation. For example, when Elvis was alive and popular people worshiped him and he was the biggest thing! Growing up I feel liek i have never felt like any genre or artist has made me think that they are dominant in this generation. FallOut Boy is alternative rock and that is very popular but so is rap and pop? I beleive that although Fall Out Boy is considered one of the best it does not depict my generation of music well.

ELVIS!

This week in class the most nteresting thing we talked about was Elvis and how he changed America. It was true that he changed our culture forever. Kids/teenagers "acting out" started then. Although, back then they did no harm they actually helped our country in a hidden way.
