I hear this song is on my new record.
My new record, Too Blessed to Be Stressed,
is available tonight so everybody can get one.
This is a song that's on the record.
It's a song about me.
[F] But it's not a song about everybody.
[B] It's a song about the human condition,
how we [D] procrastinate and don't follow through
with things we say we're gonna do.
Some people say they're gonna quit eating so much.
For me, I like to eat ice cream [G] late at night
if I'm going to bed.
I like to lay in [Gm] bed and eat ice cream.
That makes me a real guy, actually.
And so I'm out for four weeks,
and I'm [Dm] telling myself [C#] that I'm only gonna eat ice [D#] cream
in my bed on Sunday.
So wish me luck.
Anyway, this [G#] one's called A Backslide on Pride.

[Am] And I'm gonna make it around the shoes [D] every day.
[G] Gonna starve the man's [E] loving teachers
[Am] till the lamb fondue gets [D] in the way.
Oh, [G] I sit on Saturday, [D]
I repent on Sunday,
[C] and I tell myself I [G] won't procrastinate on Monday.
Do the I do like I [D] should do,
do the I do pretty [C] good,
do the ball, just the [G] ball,
and I backslide [G] on Friday.
[E]
[Em] [D]
[E] [G] I'm only thinking [E] for the future.
[Am] I say some love that goes [D] inside my mind.
[G] It's on this one, I blow you [E] in motion.
