[Em]
[Bb] [A]
[Eb] [E]
[D] [A] Spread up to the point where they [D] provoke
So a punchline before [A] they upload the joke
They see a desperation to be seen
Staring at a [Am] television screen
They spread up to the point where they [D] provoke
You should [Am] tell them from the punchline before you upload the [E] joke
I'm sorry St.
John, he doesn't exist
Or wasn't in the top 100 [F] list
And it's a thousand [E] times that it's even [Am] bolder
I'll be surprised if you get [G] bent [F] over
They [E] told you, but you [Eb] were gagging for it
[A] The story and she grabbed the army watch and while you speak
The kids told [D] you what making it was and what that [A] means
Another variation on a theme
A time around the television and the magazine
You reckon that it's too far a joke?
You reckon that it makes them techno?
Says that we [Eb] are [A] [D] [A] spenders
A letting pose of all professional
[Ab] [A] Pretenders around
[Am] When did [F] your list
[E] Replace the twist and [Am] turn of the fist
Replace the keystone [F] concerts in your [E] forest
I don't want your friends
Save it for the [A] morning after
[D] [Am] [A]

[C] [A]
[F] It's a thousand [E] times that it's even bolder
[A] I'll be surprised if you get bent [F] over
[E] They told you, but you were [Am] gagging for it
[C] Let's have a game of the teddy [Gb] picker
I'm not picking up canary, [A] I'm quick, I'll only speak in the etym speaker
[E] Let's have a game of the [B] teddy picker
I'm not picking up [A] canary, I'm quick, I'll only [Eb] speak in the etym speaker
[A] Cause you and me, [Eb] all things are equal
[Ab] Who'd want to [A] be a man after [E] being bold
When [C] there's people like [Eb]
[A] you
[F] [A]
[G] [C] [Gb] [Am]
[Abm] [C]
[Am] Outside the cafe by the cracker factory
We're [A] practicing a [C] magic trick
And my [F] thoughts are groomed [A] as your salt and [E] chewed
[A] I'm the last of [G] your pick [Cm] and mix
[Am] So you're mistaken if you're thinking that I haven't been cold before
[E] [Am] As your bitter sweet [C] strawberry lips
[Ab] Are [Am] now turning your attention [F] in the [Am] form of a gum stuffer
Cause all you had left on you was [G] going to war
[A] Your [Eb] past [A] times consisted [C] of the [A] strange
But twisted [C] and deranged and I love that little [Ab] game [A] you have called
[Ab] [A] Crying nightmare [E] and how [A] you used to handle
[C] When the ice [A] cream man on the radio sung the blues
[Cm] [Eb]
[B] One [Fm] day somehow [A] I caught [F] my own reflection
[Am] It was on its way to meet [A] you
Thinking I'm excused and supposed [C] to
You [A] never looked like [F] I'm the type
But [A] your profile [E] could [A]
not support you [C] in your clothes
With [A] folded arms you have your eyes locked too busy
So don't fuck your chest out like you've never lost [C] a war
And though [Am] I tried [F] so not to suffer the indignity of a reaction
[A] There was no props to press [C] for gaps to claw
[F] As your past [Dm] times consisted of the [Am] strange
But twisted and deranged and I love that little game [F] you have called
[Dm] Crying nightmare and how [Am] you used to handle
When the ice cream man on the radio sung the blues
[F] Only [Dm] uninvited [Am] but not half as impossible as everyone [F] assumes you are [Dm] Crying nightmare
