The irrepressible James Montgomery at MTV.com recently spoke with the charity Invisible Children as well as Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz about their recent video for "I'm Like a Lawyer With The Way I'm Always Trying To Get You Off (Me & You)".

Pete noted:

Originally when we came here, we had a plan. [The video] was going to be shot documentary–style. We were gonna shoot it as FOB coming here and interacting, But we decided that this treatment seemed more dangerous and compelling. I mean, have you ever seen a love story between Ugandan people -- especially with a rock band -- on 'TRL'?

The plan is to show that and then emphasize the idea that if we sent one senior policy adviser from the U.S. [to Uganda] that there's greater potential to end the war [now] than ever -- but for whatever reason, we're just not committed to do that, Everyone's been focusing so much attention on our band lately -- and so many times, it's the wrong kind of attention -- [but] it's all right if the cameras follow us to Africa."

Invisible Children co–founder Bobby Bailey adds:

I think it'll connect to a lot of people. From the moment we arrived here, the kids here were telling us, 'Please tell our story. And especially let America know about our story because they have a voice in the world, and they can help end this thing.'

The video is notable since it was shot during the band's recent trip to Uganda in partnership with non–profit organization Invisible Children. The band visited the country to bring awareness to the plight of displaced children in the Central African nation, which for more than two decades has been suffering from a bloody civil war.
