El grupo fue formado en 1996 por Adam Schlesinger y Chris Collingwood, antiguos compañeros de colegio. Previamente, los dos habían participado en otros grupos: Schlesinger había fundado Ivy en Nueva York y Collingwood The Mercy Buckets en Boston. El nombre del grupo se debe a una tienda de utensilios de jardinería de Wayne, Nueva Jersey, llamada Fountains of Wayne.
A ellos se unieron Brian Young, que había sido batería de The Posies, y Jody Porter, anteriormente en The Belltower. Desde entonces la formación no ha cambiado.
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!

[Intro] GC (x2)
[Verse 1] GCG Sitting in traffic on the Tappan Zee / fifty million people out in front of me CGCG Trying to cross the water but it just might be a while Rain's coming down I can't see a thing / radio's broken so I'm whistling CGD New York to Nyack feels like a hundred miles
[Chorus] EmGCG It's not right, it's not fair / I'm still a mess and you still don't care CG I go to work, I come back home CD But you're still gone, and I'm still alone F And the little red light's not blinking / no, no the little red light's not blinking C No, no the little red light's not blinking CGCGCGCGCG On my big black plastic Japanese cordless phone, oh no, oh no
[Verse 2] GCG Stuck in a meeting on Monday night / trying to get the numbers to come out right CGCG I'm getting tired, I think I just might need a drink GCGCG And as I'm reaching in the bottom drawer / I'm dreaming 'bout the way it was before CGD Life was so easy I never really had to think
[Chorus] EmGCG It's not right, it's not fair / I'm still a mess and you still don't care CG I go to sleep, when I wake up CD The pain sets in and it never stops F And the little red light's not blinking / no, no the little red light's not blinking C No, no the little red light's not blinking CG On the desktop mailbox of my big black laptop
