Transformers: The Album track listing

"Pretty Handsome Awkward" is the second single from The Used's third studio album, Lies for the Liars. The song impacted radio on August 21, 2007. It is also featured on the Transformers movie soundtrack as well as a downloadable track on Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock. The single peaked at No. 37 on the U.S. Hot Modern Rock Tracks. It was rumored that the track was written about My Chemical Romance frontman Gerard Way, but Bert McCracken said that this is not true.

The video starts with footage from the 2007 MuchMusic Video Awards of the band and Chadam walking down the street, with screaming fans on the sidewalks, and an interviewer asks "You guys gonna get all wasted tonight? Up to your normal antics?" Bert responds, "Nah, we're a little partied out, we'll probably try to take, take it easy and chill out afterward," after which a huge party is shown with the aforementioned antics being performed throughout. Jeph Howard also appears as a cross-dressed prostitute in the video. In one of the videos, he flashes the camera. At the end, the piece of dialogue at the beginning is repeated with this added afterward by the reporter: "What are you guys wusses or somethin'?".
