   C
Virginia's almost sleeping

    G
The night is getting older

        Dm
There's static on the tv

      Dm7             C
She's lying on the sofa

    G               Dm
The cats crawl over her

Jenny's in the garage

      G
She's got the car in neutral

    Dm
She rolls it out so quietly

     Dm7            C
It's Saturday as usual

   G       Dm
It always is

    C
And me I'm in my bedroom

G
Drawing in my notebook

         Dm
Cause my hand thinks I'm an artist

       Dm7                 C
But my heart knows I'm a poet

          G           Dm7
It's just words, they mean...

             C                Am7/B
So little to me, so little to me

             Dm               G
So little to me, so little to me

             C                Am7/B
So little to me, so little to me

             Dm               
So little to me

        G
I can't seem to deal with something more
When everyone will fall back
C
Daddy's in the backyard

    G
his hands are getting dirty

    Dm
And mom is in the kitchen

        Dm7                    C
And her cake says that I'm thirteen

G       Dm
Another year

   C
My brother went to college

     G
To become a doctor

    Dm
And if he studies hard enough

      Dm7                C 
he'll end up just like father

    G         Dm
Who hates his life

    C
And me, I'm in the bathroom

G
crying out my eyelids

           Dm
Cause it's hard to be a man

            Dm7                       C
when you're scared just like a little kid

    G         Dm
The world's become...

             C                  Am7/B
A little too mean, a little too mean

             Dm                 G
A little too mean, a little too mean

             C                  Am7/B
A little too mean, a little too mean

             Dm
A little too mean,

            G
And I can't see the point of patient love

                                C
When everyone just wants to get fucked
