[D] Sure you know where you're going.
[C] Your left hand [D] always right at the right.
[Em] So what if you're just in love?
[G] You can't sleep at night.
You think you're made, [D] but you got what everyone wants.

You have an [D] empty little heart.
[G] Who [C] has made a little money [E] off of somebody else's sweat?

Why do people [G] stare?
Why you got fat?
[Em] Why you got fat?

You got [Am] fat.
