[Verse 1]
Db Bbm7
A caveman painted on a cave
Fm7
It was a bison, was a fave
Abm7
The other cave-people would rave -
They didn’t ask "Why?"
Db Bbm7
Why paint a bison if it’s dead
Fm7

The audience why

Db Bbm7
It’s broken by the endless loads
Fm7
Of making-ofs and mobisodes

The tie-ins, prequels, games and codes
The audience buys

The narrative dies stretched and torn
A
Hey, spoiler warning:
[Chorus]
Ab/Eb
We’re gonna pick pick
Ebm
Pick pick pick it apart
Ab/Eb
Open it up to find the
Ebm Db
Tick tick tick of a heart
Bmaj7 A Ab
A heart, broken
[Bridge]

You know that’s just the way it is
D
You’re making everybody miz
Dbm D
ZACK: These out-of-date philosophies
Fm
Are for the dinner table, please
G
We have to sell some DVDs
A E D
JED, MAURISSA, ZACK: Without these things you spit upon

JOSS: I sang some things I didn’t mean
Fm7
Okay, let’s talk about this scene

I think it’s great how Ryan Green -
Oh this is no good

I thought J-Mo would back my play
A
Now Zack and they all say
[Chorus]
