History
Early projects and formation (2004–2006)
In Dallas, Texas, long before the formation of the band, Marc Stewart had originally met Kent Garrison during high school, and they related to each other for their same musical interests. When Garrison later went to college and met Jonathan Cook, the two discussed forming a band, called The Flipside. Garrison contacted Stewart and informed him of the idea. Cook would take on lead vocals, Garrison on bass guitar, and Stewart on lead guitar. Stewart's stepbrother, Kyle Burns, soon joined and played drums for the band, and local friend Craig Calloway was recruited for a place on rhythm guitar. The band went on to play at numerous local shows and released an independent eponymous EP.
Forever the Sickest Kids is the second self-titled studio album from American pop punk band Forever the Sickest Kids, released on March 1, 2011. It is their last release through Universal Motown Records, and also last to feature members Kent Garrison and Marc Stewart.
Background
During the writing of the songs, a five-piece EP entitled The Weekend: Saturday was originally intended for the next release from the band, as part of their continuation of their previous release, The Weekend: Friday. However, numerous songs were written and it was decided to release a full length album instead of the EP. When speaking about the album, vocalist Jonathan Cook stated, "This is like, a year and a half in the making with some different planning. We thought we might put it out as an EP, five songs a piece. And then, we just started writing more and more songs, before you knew it we had eleven songs that we were passionate about. So, we're like, "Why not put it out as a full-length album?".

La La Lainey
by: Forever The Sickest KidsShe was in to hardcore, I was in to rock and roll
She was in to girls it was her own form of birth control
She was smoking cigarettes and drinking before 5
She was wild, she was fine with being hungover all the time
Come on!
She was always at a party disappointing daddy,
Always dating dirtbags, everyone but me she had
Lyrics from her favorite song tattooed on her arm
She was rough, she was fine, she was way out of her mind
I love her like La La La La La La La La La La...
I love her like La La La La La La La La La La...
I love her like hate, I love her like pain,
I need her like a picnic needs the rain
I love her like La La La La La La La La La La...
She loved drinking whiskey first thing in the morning,
She would start a fight, if you looked at her the wrong way
Everyday was Halloween a reason to rebel,
She was wild, she was fine with being bitter all the time
I love her like La La La La La La La La La La...
I love her like La La La La La La La La La La...
I love her like hate, I love her like pain,
I need her like a picnic needs the rain
I love her like La La La La La La La La La La...
La La La La La La La La La La...
La La La La La La La La La La...
I love her like La La La La La La La La La La...
I love her like La La La La La La La La La La...
She was smoking cigarettes and drinking before 5
She was wild, she was fine with being hungover...
I love her like La La La La La La La La La La...
I love her like La La La La La La La La La La...
I love her like hate, I love her like pain,
I need her like a forest needs a flame
I love her like rage, I love her like shame
I need her like a victim needs the plague
