“Congratulations” is a song written as a dis towards the record labels that have turned down both Kellin Quinn and Matty Mullins. The song also touches on the flaws of today’s pop-culture. In the end, Kellin and Matty have the last laugh since they are both successful musicians.
[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?)
