[Verse 1]
A G If I can fit my dreams A G You say the same things over and over G F Into an AB AB rhyme scheme G Em7 You say the same things over and over A G Love is a way of passing on our genes A G Love is because we want to further our genes G F God is a scientist, he's just found out about us G Em7 He's published a study but he don't know much about us
[Chorus]
A G Gmaj7/F# Em7 When I die I won't become a ghost F#m Because I’ll have nowhere to haunt A G Gmaj7/F# Em7 Fuck this town and fuck my dirty hands F#m A G Gmaj7/F# Em7 F#m When you're strange if they like you then they gotta be stranger A G Gmaj7/F# Em7 F#m But they're just strangers
[Verse 2]
A G Society wants me to fuck, well fuck 'em A G Car Seat is a genetic stop sign G F I sleep lying next to a mirror G Em7 Car Seat is a menace to the public A G Love is a way of advancing our species A G Love is because we want to keep up our species G F God is a director, he's just found out about us G Em7 He's talked to our agents but he don't know much about us
