[Intro]
| Em | Em | G | A |
| Em | Em | A | C A |
[Verse 1]
Em Em I grew up as your usual suburbanite, G A a tiny town in Massachusetts, overwhelmingly white. Em Em I went to church on Sundays in a suit and a tie, G A then spent my free time watching Family Guy. Em Em G I started doing comedy when I was just a sheltered kid, A I wrote offensive shit, and I said it: Em Em A Father, please forgive me, for I did not realize what I did C A or that I'd live to regret it.
[Pre-Chorus]
C G Em Times are changing, and I'm getting old. G Are you gonna hold me accountable? Em G My bed is empty and I'm getting cold. Em G N.C. Isn't anybody gonna hold me accountable? Uh
[Chorus]
Em Em I'm problematic (He's a problem), A A when I was seventeen, on Halloween Em Em I dressed up as Aladdin (He's a problem), A N.C. I did not darken my skin, but still, it feels weird in [Solo] hindsight.
[Synth Solo]
| Em | Em | G | A |
| Em | Em | A | C A |
[Verse 2]
Em Em I want to show you how I'm growing as a person, but first G A I feel I must address the lyrics from the previous verse. Em Em I tried to hide behind my childhood, and that's not okay, G A my actions are my own, I won't explain them away. Em Em G I've done a lot of self-reflecting since I started singing this song, A I was totally wrong when I said it: Em Em A Father, please forgive me, for I did not realize what I did C A or that I'd live to regret it.
[Pre-Chorus]
C G Em Times are changing and I'm getting old. Em Are you gonna hold me accountable? C G My bed is empty and I'm getting cold. Em Em N.C. N.C. Isn't anybody gonna hold me accountable? Uh
[Chorus]
Em Em I'm problematic (He's a problem) A A I just remembered that Aladdin costume's Em Em A C in my mother's attic (He's a problem) I'm gonna go home and burn it A N.C. or not burn it. Is burning it bad? What should I do with it?
[Bridge]
C G And I've been totally awful, D Em G/D my closet is chock-full of stuff that is vaguely shitty. C G All of it was perfectly lawful, D Em G/D just not very thoughtful at all and just really shitty. C G And I've been totally awful, D Em G/D my closet is chock-full of stuff that is vaguely shitty. C G All of it was perfectly lawful, D N.C. just not very thoughtful at all and just really ...
[Outro]
G Em And I'm really fucking sorry, Bm Bm bitch, I'm trying to listen, shit, I’ve been complicit. G Em Sorry, Bm Bm if I'm gonna catch up, first, I gotta fess up. G Em Bm Bm Sorry, G Em Bm Bm sorry.
