[Intro]
B7
Em C Sounds like a cabaret to you G B7 That's what you said Em C G B7 I could live a thousand years and still not know just what you meant
[Chorus]
Em C Sounds like a cabaret to you G B7 What can I say Em C G When I know that you would feel that way about anything I play B7 Em I'll bet my songs all sound the same to you C G I'll bet they fuckin' do D7 Em Am G I bet they sound the same because you've only heard like two Em C I'll bet my shit all sounds the same to you D7 G I'll bet it fuckin' does Em Am D7 Em Given the circumstances that does not amount to much
[Verse 1]
Em C D7 G How could you do it, on my turf, in my own home, to my own kids C D7 G E About what's so absolutely mine C D7 G Em And if you play me one of hers and it's better than my own C D7 G I'll have to eat a gun and fuck off to the sky C D7 G D7 G And if it's worse than most of mine that still sucks ass too Am D7 G And I'm still fucked even if it's just the same C D7 G Em Am D7 G You'd have a better chance of getting into heaven if instead you fucked me drunk and screamed her name
[Chorus]
B7
Em C Sounds like a cabaret to you G B7 I feel so small Em C G And I'm sure you didn't mean anything by it at all Em C D7 'Cause everything is just okay to you G It's in the past Em Am D7 Em I'll bet you don't remember that you even fucking asked
[Verse 2]
Em* C* But how dare you make the offer G* B7* And I should've kicked your ass Em C G Given you a look that turned your slimy bones to ash Am D7 G If it hadn't been so shocking, if it hadn't hurt so bad Em Am D7 Em Perhaps I could've moved my shaking hands to hit you back
G Em Am B7
(Shift capo to 1st fret)
[Bridge]
C So first of all that I would still play for you Em Anything at all B7 Em And it's just a fucking cabaret to you G Suddenly I'm half as tall
[Verse 3]
B7 Em Goddamnit you could call my house in bed with her Am Just to say that she was better, D7 Em G B7 And I'd still be half as mad about the whole affair Em Tell me which of your ten fingers Am Have been how far in her mouth D7 G That you prefer the way she pulls your fuckin' hair B7 C G Goddamit all the branches all the fuckin' implications, C B7 Code and circuitry, inherent in your words C D7 G The nerve of it, the gall, I should just put you underground Am D7 Em And leave your unattended insults, all your shit code for the worms
(Shift capo to 3rd fret)
[Outro Chorus]
B7 C G It sounds like a cabaret to you, what can I do? Em B7 The sound of cities burning is a cabaret to you C D7 G I'll bet it sounds the same to you — all of my shit Em Am D7 G A nastier offense than if you'd gone after my, near-perfect tits C So don't sing for me D7 G Em Am I can't believe you took away one more song, don't play it for me D7 G Em Am You're a monster and you'll never live this down, don't play it for me D7 B7 Em Am A cum shot to the face of God, don't play it for me D7 G* You tell her I say she sounds great, but don't play it for me
Em Am D7 G
