F So, you wanted G That's what you get for wanting
You got it
Am
That's what you get for gettingForgotten
E
You're gardening a rotting bedOf raygun-era icons
F
SoLet's start it
Let's start it
G From the minute you felt it Am You felt it like a prison
A panic, you felt it
E
Like that coffee sceneFrom Moscow on the Hudson
F
So...Be honest
G It's not as if you're happy about it Am It's not as if you're animatronic F It's not as if you couldn't
Cry out any time you wanted
F Olly olly oxen free G All the people you will never be F Olly olly oxen free G Olly olly olly olly
Olly olly olly olly
F
FateYou call it
You color it
G
The color you want itYou carpet it
Am That's awful convenient E You paint yourself a nice white room
With stripes and matching curtains
F
SoYou forfeit
G You cannot build a river across it Am You cannot hold your own heart hostage F You do not have the strength
To gag yourself in every closet
F
The wrong place, wrong mindTiming's always bad
G
You're such a sad caseMisplaced renaissance
Am
Inventor of a worldwideHeartbreak, taking it in stride
F
'Cause you're an expertAren't you?
Aren't you just a dime a dozen?
F
Murderous monosyllabic moronWith no sense of purpose
G
Working on your songs all nightTo justify your worthlessness
Am
To anyone who's watchingIf they only saw your alter egos
F
Pretty in the shop windowsWhere you got auctioned hours ago
F Olly olly oxen free G All the people you will never be F Olly olly oxen free G olly olly olly olly
Higher than the king can
F See no evil, hear no evil G Capture me and throw the key F See no evil, hear no evil G Capture me and throw the key away
Throw the key away
F
SoIt's over
G You're lying in a coffin of clutter Am Your father and your sister, your drummer E Are sorting through your Soft Cell tapes F And lifesaver collection, and you wonder G You wonder if you could've done better Am You wonder if you should've surrendered
Before you learned that
F Nobody actually wants a fucking martyr F Didn't you, didn't you, didn't
Didn't you see?
G
Didn't you, didn't you, didn'tDidn't you see?
F
Didn't you, didn't you, didn'tDidn't you see me?
G
Didn't you, didn't you, didn'tDidn't you see me?
F Olly olly oxen free G All the people you will never be F Olly olly oxen free G olly olly olly olly
Higher than the king can
F See no evil, hear no evil G Capture me and throw the key F See no evil, hear no evil G Capture me and throw the key away F Throw the key away G Throw the key away
