Chords for Frank Zappa - Dumb All Over - Lyrics

_ _ _ [Db] Why? _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
[Db] Why does it [Bb] have to be me?
[Dbm] Who we are, [D] where we're from, we [F] should have noticed by now our behavior is [Db] dumb.
Too much.
[Eb] We've [F] got a lot more [Ab] to learn.
[F] The race of [Db] the world, the [Eb] people of the beast of the planet, [Bb] all together. _
[Db] They call it the earth, which [F] is a dumb kind of being with a big, good way to behave the same [Db] way our friends _ [F] _ _ [Db] _ _ and family are.
I _ [Eb] _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ [Db] _ _ [C] _
[Ab] don't _ [F] care _ if the night's day in the bible tells [Eb] a story,
makes the details sound real boring about what to do,
the eager over there [F] don't believe in the book [Eb] of evil,
the fear of the devil, the race [Db] without no theme,
and the race of the devil in no certain [Eb] time.
The dummies that we all [Db] call the dummies, the dog [F]-armed religious [Db] fanatics,
they may be all gone, [C] I mean they [F] won't grow up,
they'll disappear, they'll just look ugly [Ab] for a thousand years. _ _
[Db] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _repetitive,
[Db] not by a heap [C] or a lump,
a snitch [Db] of foolish rules [Eb] of ancient date,
designed to make you [F] all feel great,
[Db] like the prince at [Eb] eleven middle-age,
who's fun, fun, fun, [F] fun, and great.
_ [A] _ _ [C] _ _
[Db] _ _ [Eb] _harmless,
[Bb] already that's great,
[F] two legs ain't bad unless there's a great fish at the bar,
still [Bb] not my inn, [Eb] or souvenirs, [Db] two years, get [F] down.
Not his, [Db] not hers, but what [F] can't be [Bb] a good book,
_gotta
do that, maybe [Eb] half of their books is,
now revenge, the [F] crusades,
the whips and chains and the knaves,
whines, _ whines, _ _ _
_ _no
other, our visit on the road,
our God's worse, kisses the way,
_a
book of burn and the zero [Ab] hanging,
_ [C] a [Ab] revenge reading, [Bb] revenge,
_from
_ [C] _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ [F] what's in [Db] the book, and that makes [Bb] them bad, _
[Db] _who
[F] barely must [Db] have shot them,
[F] _best
[Db] not let them down,
_ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _they
threw them out of [Bb] existence, _
_while
we barely [G] are saved, just barely,
_they
[C] use a can, [Ab] or a full sandwich to praise,
[Db] _our
God, _ will take [G] care of business,
_ _ [Eb] _
_that
one is not more to [F] be served, _ _ _ _ _
_ _maybe
a blonde wife,
_ _helps
us, our God says,
[Bb] _may
the dwindle [F] of them,
_ [Db] _ _when
we inquire,
_ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Db] _ _ [F] _ _ _ [Bb] _they
say [F] every night, every day,
_ _ [Db] _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _this,
or that, or this,
_he
gave us all to be just like [Db] him,
_so
if [Eb] we're dumb,
_then
God is dumb,
_and
maybe even a little lucky [C] on the side, _ _ _ _
_dumb
on the side,
_ [Bb] _ _
[Db] _dumb
on [C] the side,
[Ab] _a
little lucky on the [C] side,
_on
_ _ _ _ [Db] the side,
_dumb
on the [Eb] side,
_ _ [N] _ _
