[Verse]
Dm C G Evil S I yes to find a shore C G F A beast that doesn't quiver anymore Dm C F And we could crush some plants to paint my walls Am F And I won't try to fight in the weekend wars Dm C G Was I? I was too lazy to bathe C G F Or paint or write or try to make a change Dm C F Now I can shoot a gun to kill my lunch Am F And I don't have to love or think too much
[Refrain]
A Dm C F A Bb Instant battle plans written on the sidewalk A Dm C F A Bb Mental mystics in a twisted metal car A Dm C F Gm A Bb C Tried to amplify the sound of light and love

[Verse]
Dm C G Christ is cursed of fathers and mothers C G F Might even take a knife to split a hair Dm C F Or even scare the children off my lawn Am F Giving us time to make the makeshift bombs Dm C G Every mess invested was a score C G F We couldn't use computers anymore Dm C F But it's difficult to win unless you're bored Am F And you might have to plan for the weekend wars
