[Em] This is the ballad of Hollywood Jack [D] and the Rage Cage
[Em] Nothing could stop him when Jables and Rage hit [D] the stage
And Hollywood Jack hit the big time and went to [D] make movies
[Em] Rage Cage was left far behind in the dust of [D] his dreams
And [Em] he grumbled [D] and growled and [G] watched Hollywood Jack on [B] Jay Leno
[Em] He [E] bellowed and said [G] he'd be nothing without help [B] from Cage
[Em] He burned up [D] the photos [G] of Jables and Cage [B] doing mushrooms
[Em] Fuck him.
[D] I don't need no Hollywood Jack [B] anyway
[Em] So Hollywood Jack lived up high on a hill [D] in a bubble
[Em] And Rage Cage lived deep in the broiling valley [D] below
[Em] Yes, the Rage Cage
[C] Bubbled with rage [D] he looked at the ground and [B] he looked on the [Em] stage
The lava was flowing [C] and broiling inside the [D] old cage
[B] [Em] As Hollywood [E]
Jack climbed [G] the ladder of stardom [B] before him
[Em] He watched as [D] his indie [G] credentials flew right out [B] the door
[Em] He'd make millions and [D] they'd [G] go out and he'd make [B] even more millions
[Em] He'd scream [E] Cage's calls and [G] snort coke off the ass of [B] a whore
[Em] No one respected [C] him.
They just rejected [G] him.
No one would represent [D] Cage
[Em] Left on the streets of his [C] dreams.
He would cry and [G] he'd rage for [B] the stage I

[Em] Check out [C] a message that Cage was [D] in trouble
They sent Cage away cuz he had gone completely insane
[Em] So Hollywood Jack jumped [C] upon a jet plane [D] and flew all that night through the rain
[Em] He with his friend [C] you see what remained in his [D] brain
[E] That Hollywood Jack told [A] the doctors you've got to [B] retrieve him
[Em] You've got the [D] technology [G] use the [A] techniques of your [B] trade
He [Em] grabbed [D] Bella Belt and he screamed my god.
You [B] must save him
Because [Em] the Rage Cage [E] and I can't [G] you see [C] that we're one and [B] the same I
[Em] [C] Hey, baby [G] magic inside that [D] old knee and [Em] you know
