Fall Out Boy: The Carpal Tunnel of Love Meaning

Song Released: 2007

The Carpal Tunnel of Love Lyrics

We take sour sips from life's lush lips
And we shake, shake, shake the hips in relationships
Stomp out this disaster town
You'll put your eyes to the sun and say, "I know
you're only blinding to keep back what the clouds are hiding."

And...

   Duuude, I love this song, but y'all shouldn't take up space conversing... just sayin'. >.>;; Anyway, I guess to me it's like they're tired of rumors and lies and want people to realize things... I dunno. I'm not good at this stuff. xD

   I guess I should submit a real interpretation, so here it is: I think this song talks about lies. To me "we're throwing stones at a glass moon" says they are trying to stop the lies. And "we bullet the words at the mockingbird's singing" says the lies are destroying the innocent

   The part at the end when pete speaks his mind
   he is saying
   
   :It was ice cream headaches and sweet avalanche
   When the pearls in our shells got up to dance
   You call me a bad tipper of the cradle
   But I'm just tired yawns for fawns on hunter's lawns
   We're the has-beens of husbands
   Sharpening the knives of young wives
   Take two years and call me when you're better
   Take tears of mine, find yourself wetter...
   
   and what that's is supposed to mean is
   :yea I'm no good atleast I addmit it, and no matter how bad I am you will always be worse

   The part towards the end where they start shouting is really weird, but I love it. And the lines where they say they're so miserable and cunning and stunning or whatever. Also, the part about throwing stones at a glass moon. They are all so beatiful.

   This was meant to be an interpretation of the song but it turned out to be a short discussion on whether Pete is single or not!! typical!

   They were dating but they're just friends not. Yeah he said he's single but why does it matter?

   Wow
   
   Pete is single
   
   he wouldn't lie to his fans and if he had a girlfriend he shouldn't be ashamed of her
   
   and, uh, sweetie, it is June 2007 and he's on tour right now so I don't think he's gonna get married very soon

    i think that the songs title is about pete wentz's constant texting to his girl friend. Since he never sees her texting is the only way to contact her.
