"Under and Over It" (initialized as UAOI) is a song by American heavy metal band Five Finger Death Punch. The song was released as the first single from their third album American Capitalist, and their tenth single overall. The song was released on July 27, 2011, and from July–November 2011, it was ranked as the #1 song on SiriusXM's Octane (hard rock) channel's weekly countdown. "Under and Over It" is on average the band's best-charting single.

According to lead vocalist Ivan Moody, the song was inspired by rumors that he found on the internet. The rumors purported that Moody committed suicide, that his band broke up, and that he was a drug addict with fourteen children. At the band's August 27, 2011 Pain in the Grass concert in Emerald City, Washington Moody pointed out that he was alive, his band was still together, and stated that "the kid part might be true, I'm waiting on blood tests, but the only drug I do is green".

The video begins with an illusion of the band performing in a studio in front of a marquee of flashing lights, then zooms in to the band. The video director steps in, interrupts the song and tells the band that "I need more attitude, more feeling". Moody slaps the director, and the band plays the song again.

While the band plays the introduction, Moody counts to four on his fingers, followed by Zoltan Bathory and he then driving up to a house in a black sports car. The video shifts between Moody singing in a pool party, in a studio and in a bar. When the lyric, "Did you hear about the money, how it made me change" came on, a brief case with the name "GUVERA" showing is opened, with Bathory signing a contract and fistbumping Moody. Then in the bar scene, a man breaks open a piñata full of money. A picture of an article from The Las Vegas Post reading:
