Do you like how I dance? I've got zirconium pants

Do you like how I walk? Do you like how I talk?

I have a wonderful wife, I have a powerful job

She criticizes me for being egocentric (Ha-ha-ha-ha!)

(You practice your mannerisms into the wall)

          F#m                            B
If this mirror were clearer I'd be standing so tall

             F#m                        B
(I saw you slobber over clovers on the side of the hill)

         F#m                       B
I was observing the birds (circle in for the kill)

You know you're making me cry, this is the way that I am

           E                   A
I've been living a lie, a metamorphical scheme

            E                          A
(Detective undercover, brotherhood, objective, obscene)

Do you hear the flibbity jibbity jibber jabber

          B
With an, "Oh my god I've got to get out of here or I'll have another

 E
Word to sell, another story to tell

          B
Another time piece ringing the bell"

                        E
Do you hear the clock stop when you reach the end

                          B
No, you know it must be never ending
Comprehend if you can
              E
But when you try to pretend to understand

                 B
You resemble a fool although you're only a man

                    E   B  E  B
So give it up and smile

E

[Outro]
  E
Without looking down, gliding around

          A               E
Like a bumbling dragon I fly

  A                      E
Scraping my face on the sky
