[Verse]
A
You say you want truth
F#m
But in your heart
All you really want’s
A big fat lie
Dmaj7
So keep it all inside
Dm
And go to sleep at night
A
With no wrong or right
A
You’ve been turned ‘round
But you wear no frown
F#m
You’ve got an invitation waiting
From an unknown town
Dmaj7
I know that I’m a clown
Dm
But humour’s all I’ve got
A
To keep the voices down
A
Heard you got knocked up
Eating peanut butter cups
F#m
There is no passion spent without
An equal measure biting dust
Dmaj7
What will become of us?
Dm
The few left throwing up
When the party stops
A F#m Dmaj7 Dm A

A
Oh, just send it all away
I won’t accept any bouquet
F#m
Of flowers grown in gardens owned
By everything I used to hate
Dmaj7
I don’t mean to be irate
Dm
I’ve just lost the only dream
A
That I’ll ever make
A
Don’t no-show and tell
I guess I’ll see you all in hell
F#m
Considering the sins we sin
Are sinister in every single way
Dmaj7
I’ve got carried away
Dm
Now the barkeep’s wondering
A
What’s next I’m gonna say
A F#m Dmaj7 Dm A
