[Verse 1]
Dm I come from a genius, I am my father's son Dm Yeah, too bad he was a psychopath and now I'm the next in line Dm Lonelyness dear mother, yes, surely she's a work of art Dm I never got top dollar, but she gave us all a star
[Chorus]
A G G# Can I get a reprieve? G G# This gene pool don't hurt me A# B Can I beg a release A# G# From the volunteer amputee? G G# From the moment I fell G G# I called on DNA A# B Why such betrayal A# A# A G# G Got me tooth and nail
[Verse 2]
Dm Yeah, how's about one conversation with nothing else left to be had Dm Oh, is this your long lost son, and he's never had dear old dad Dm I forget the insemination and for that I'm supposed to be glad Dm What a pity you left us so soon to climb your mountain of regret
[Chorus]
A G G# Can I get a reprieve? G G# This gene pool dark and deep A# B Can I beg a release? A# G# Can I volunteer amputee? G G# From the moment I fell G G# I called on DNA A# B Why such betrayal? A# A# A G# G Oh I gotta set sail

[Interlude]
D C Oh real bright light shining as you're trying to breathe in thin air D Bm C Cannot forget you're hiding collected wounds left unhealed D C When every thought you're thinking sinks you darker than the new moon sky D Bm C The faraway lights rising in the whites of your eyes
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
Dm Now father you're dead and gone and I'm finally free to be me Dm Thanks for all your fucked up gifts for which I've got no sympathy Dm I'm living in a walled-up place in the bounds of fifth symphony Dm Thanks for this and thanks for that, I gotta let go, learn to see
[Chorus]
A G G# Can I get a reprieve? G G# This gene pool don't hurt me A# B Can I beg a release? A# G# Can I volunteer amputee? G G# From the moment I fell G G# I called on DNA A# B Why such betrayal A# A# A G# G Oh I gotta set sail
