[A] _ _ [E] _ [F#] I hear you thinking I'm a thug, [E] sentimental _ thug.
Well, I like the physique, but_
Yes, sir, it's a [F#] brutal _ [Am] try.
[E] _ We'd dive for pearls in the drain.
And [C] hold dying [F#] [Em] competitions.
_ [E] _ Squirt blood first into the mouths of our cannibal [C] _ _
[E] overlords.

_ [A] [Em] The [E] more you give someone, the more they want from you.
_ [C] _ _
_ _ [E] Rubbish in people's fun, it's second to none
in the joy that it [C] brings to the [F#] self [Em]-righteous [E] _ mind. _ _ _
[B] Ah, [E] _ ooo, I [C] asked my head on [E] a straight fable.

_ [E] _ _ I want world peace, general socialism, I know my gizmo.
[C] _ [F#] _
_ [Em] I'm the [E] only god, you'll be the god of L-O-V-E.
I want a non-invasive kind of [Am] telepathy
[Em] that [E] lets you feel what [D] it's like to be [C#m] _ [F#m] _ somebody [C] _
else.
[E] _ Feel what it's [D] like to be [C#m] _ [F#m] _ somebody [C] else.

[F#] _
And [E] that could be our legacy before the feline dynasty
scampers over history, skiddy-bop, skiddy-bop, skiddy-bop,
and emerges.
_ [D] She's come up to heaven, [C#m] [G] I live [F#m] for several.
[C] _ _ _
