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, yeah

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

That's right



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



Congratulations (congratulations)

They say you're the man (they say you're the man)

Congratulations (congratulations)

You see I do what you can't (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)



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 Kellin rule the world!



Congratulations (congratulations)

They say you're the man (yes I am)

Congratulations (congratulations)

You see I do what you can't (see I do what you can't)

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

Congratulations (congratulations, congratulations)



(Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)



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

Stay the fuck out of our way



Congratulations (congratulations)

They say you're the man (they say you're the man)

Congratulations (congratulations)

You see I do what you can't (you see I do what you can't)

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

Please, 'cause I need to make more room for myself (is that good?)

Congratulations
