[Intro pt 1]
N.C
There are three things I would never do
lie to my wife, lie to my daughter,
or tell the truth to either one
N.C.
Gomez, you do tell me everything dont you?
Of course!
Oh my (what?) your perspiring (what?)
I hope you're not coming down with a case of.. Liar Shingles! (No, liars shingles, please)
Bb7
I think Wednesday and I should have a little chat (Oh).[Intro pt. 2]
N.C.
Like a bull in the ring
or the moderate right-wing
I'm trapped.
Like a fly in my tea
or the New York DMV
I'm Trapped
[Verse]
Ab Abm With my wife to my left and my daughter to my right Eb/G Csus C any thought of my escaping must be scrapped Fm Db7 I could choose, sing the blue Bb7 but no matter what I do's Eb B7 Eb I'm trapped, trapped, trapped
B7
E B Like a boat in a lock or a cukoo in a clock I'm trapped B7 E Like a corpse in the ground or like theatre in the round I'm trapped A Am E/G# C#7 I could cry, I could lie I could simply up and die F#m D7 F#m D7 B7 But I fear the dice I've rolled have finally crapped!

Am D7 How can I keep a secret from the woman I adore? G C The bitter breeze that keeps me here and coming back for more! F#m7b5 B7 She stokes the Addams fire she harbors each desire Em Em Em E7/G# E7 I'd never tell her lies but when my daughter cries Am D7 How can I be expected then to turn the other cheek? G C Should I not be her hero 'stead of sniviling and weak? F#m7b5 F#m7b5 B7 I'll pick the route that's true tell me what I must do! e|--------------------------8--7----| B|--------------------8--7----------| G|--------------9--8----------------| D|----7-8-9--8----------------------| A|----------------------------------| E|----------------------------------|
