[Eb] [Db] [Eb] [Gb] [Ab] [Gb] [Eb]
[Db] [Eb] [Gb] [Ab] [Gb]
[Ab] [Gb] [Ebm]
[Gb] [Ebm]
Skeletons in your [Gb] closet
[Ebm] Teaching to come outside
[Gb] Messing [Bbm]
[Ebm] with your [Ab] conscience
[Gb] In a [Ebm] way your face can't hide
[Db] [Ebm] Oh, things are getting real [Gb] funky
Time to feel [Ebm] so bad
And it's not just constant stinking
It's a stinking lies you tell
What did your [Abm] mama [Gb] tell you about life?
She said it wasn't polite to tell a white lie
What did your daddy tell you about [Abm]
[Ebm] life?
He said one white one turns into a black one
It's getting ready to blow
It's getting ready to show
Somebody shout out that the morphin'
We're [Bb] getting ready to know
[Gb] It's getting ready to drop
It's getting ready to shock
Somebody turn up the heat
And it's [Ebm] getting ready to pump
[Db]
[C] [Db] [Eb]
[Db] [Ab] [Db]
Grab [C] [Db]
[Fm] [C] [Ebm] a
[Ab] [Gb]
[Db] [Ebm]
[Gb] cincinnia band-aid
Now what do we have in here?
In [Ebm]
a daytime nightmare
Has almost been your biggest fear
[Db] [Ebm] Things are getting real [Gb] crucial
I [Ebm]
feel one too
[Gb] [Ebm]
Yet you cry while I'm a victim
[Db] [Ebm] When the conference wire on you
What did your [Gb] mama tell you about life?
She said it [Abm] wasn't [Gb] polite to tell a white lie
[Ebm] What did your daddy tell you about [Ab] life?
[Ebm] He said one [Abm] white one turns into [Ebm] a black one
It's getting ready to blow
It's getting ready to show
Somebody shout out that the morphin'
We're getting ready to know
It's getting ready to drop
It's getting ready to shock
Somebody turn up the heat
And it's getting ready to pump
It's getting ready to speak
We're getting ready to freak
Somebody pick up the dog bites
And it's getting ready to stink
It's getting ready to jazz
Someone don't let the lid open
It's gettin' ready to smell.
They're gettin' ready to feel.
Ya gettin' ready to kill.
Some riding chest out to break down.
They're gettin' ready to squeal.
It's gettin' ready to turn.
We're gettin' ready to learn.
Some ridin' fat up the [Db] brimstone.
Ya gettin' ready to burn.
It's gettin' ready [Gb] to shake.
Ya gettin' ready to ache.
Some riding snitch through the newsroom.
It's getting ready to break!
[Bbm] [Ebm] It's getting ready to lie!
It's getting ready to spy!
Somebody put on the [Bb] hot seat!
It's getting [Ebm] ready to fry!
