Am              G      F 
  I want to live life duty free

C       E         Am       Dm
Let my instincts take the lead

Am         G        F 
I want to take what I can get

C              E          Am       Dm
Don't want to choose don't want to beg

Am      G             F
I want down from this family tree

E
I don't need no upward mobility
(Repeat verse)
Am         G      F
I want to unlearn what I've learned

C       E      Am        Dm
Want to unearn what I've earned

Am      G       F          
Want to burn my bridges down

C      E       Am       Dm
Find a place I can't be found

Am         G         F
This is my manifesto destiny

E                             Dm    G
Tear down this awkward mobility

            Am       G        F 
'Cause I'm tired of standing upright

E                                                           Dm      G
The taller we become the more dollars we can grab from that highest branch

         Am           G              F  
And then step on your back given the chance

                 G  
But not me I'm a bipedal backpedaler just as sure-footed as I can
(Repeat verse)
Am      G    F          
 I'm no high society man

C           E       Am     Dm
No suit and tie, no Dapper Dan

Am     G     F
I'm no happy family man

C      E        Am       Dm
I'm no husband, ain't no dad

Am    G       F
I'm a goddamn caveman

E
This upward mobility is more than I can understand

C       E            Am    Dm
I won't stand, no, I won't stand for it

C       E            Am    Dm
I won't stand, no, I won't stand for it

C       E            Am    Dm
I won't stand, no, I won't stand for it

Am            G             F
I'd rather be all hands and knees

          Am        G               F
Yeah, I'd rather be swinging in the trees
With the monkeys and the junkies and bums and sloths and jailbird canaries
                     G
Yeah that's me I'm a bipedal backpedaler from sea to shining sea 
(Repeat verse)
