Misc Musicals – Adamandi - Student Body (Guitar)

Em                           Am
Was it something in the bacterium

            D
That turned toxic once it died?

    C             Em
The answer lay in pneumococcus

           D
A pathogen they scrutinized

G
It produced a substance not after death

    Em
But as it lived and grew

  Am
A substance that befouled the blood

   D
Disturbing nerves and tissue

    G
But did this signify deadly disease

         Em
In those poor undergraduate men?

       Am
With a rusty precipitate, it was always too late

          D
Death was only a matter of when

       G                           Bm
It's infectious, it's deadly, it's one to be fеared

    C                    D
The toxins it makes will sprеad

         G                               Bm
With the heart's throb and pull, growing out of control

         C             Cm      G
'til the whole student body is dead

G
Poison produced by foreign bacteria

Em
Something that doesn't belong

Am
Something corrupting the system that made it

D
Something intangibly wrong

G
That's not its fault; it can't fix it

            Em
'cause it's not where it's meant to be

Am
Just like they remind you whenever they find you

             D
You're never what they wanna see

         G                               Bm
You're infectious, you're deadly, you're one to be feared

    C                    D
The toxins you make will spread

         G                               Bm
With the heart's throb and pull, growing out of control

         C             Cm      G
'til the whole student body is dead

                        C
And doesn't it make you curious?

D                   G
Doesn't it make you smile

                              C
When you find out what you're good at

      D                  G
After looking for such a while

              Am
As natural as painting

     D             G
With more intimate charm

    C
The scalpel I was holding

         Em
Was an extension of my arm

    D                   C
And doesn't it make you curious?

        D            G
It's so fussy and tactile

          Gb         C
Each life yours to ablate

     D               G
Each hall yours to defile

D               C
No one there to stop me

   D              G
No consequence to face

                 Em  D   C
Play god for the student body

     Ebm           B
Play god for the human race

      G                         Ebm
I'm infectious, I'm deadly, I'm one to be feared

    C                  D
The toxins I make will spread

         G                               Em
With the heart's throb and pull, growing out of control

         C
'til the whole student body

         Cm                 N.C.
'til the whole student body –

          C               D     G
'Till the whole student body is dead!
