Em          D     Em  A
Crazy is as crazy does

Em                  D       Em          A
Wrapped around your finger, look at us, sign is up

   A#dim               A     A#dim
In what is his name we trust

               Em            D        Em  A
Now you got us swinging on a loose trapeze

   Em     D                Em      A
No matter what you'll land on your knees, begging please

A#dim                 B7
What do you want from me?
[Chorus]
      C                             A
Is it science fiction or prediction wrapped in George Orwell?

       C                                 A
If the news is fake and fear is hate and nothing's immoral

       C                              D              B   Em
To the leader of the free world, then welcome to the new normal

    A   Em D Em A
The new normal
[Verse 2]
  Em               D      Em A
A woolly mammoth's on his way

Em              D        Em        A
Back in time to watch us leave for space, it's a race

A#dim          A    A#dim
Not very human race

               Em           D        Em   A
Ah, but if you really wanna know the truth

             Em        D      Em       A                    A#dim
We've got an algorithm tailor-made for you, yeah, it's true

             B7
According to who?
[Chorus]
      C                             A
Is it science fiction or prediction wrapped in George Orwell?

If the news is fake and fear is hate and nothing's immoral

       C                              D              B   Em
To the leader of the free world, then welcome to the new normal

Em                  D     Em A
Punch the clock and walk away

                Em             D          Em        A
While you still have a job and while that job still pays, it's a way

       A#dim             A
You're gonna wake up someday

     A#dim                A
To a robot that's in your place

     A#dim               B7
Like all the predictions say
[Chorus]
      C                             A
Is it science fiction or prediction wrapped in George Orwell?

       C                                 A
If the news is fake and fear is hate and nothing's immoral
