verse 1
Riff 1
G C Am C G
"Say something meaningful please" It's been 3 years of stagnation, court dates, and fees
Riff 1 C Am C
Wondering if I will go free
Riff 1
Nothing will satisfy me Even if I burn this whole planet down it seems
Riff 1
Won't learn a thing, I'll die from risking
verse 2
G Am
I've got friends who would rather end society
C
Because there's no way of fixing these flaws
G Am
And that's starting to make far more sense to me now
C
Cause we're lazy and used to what's wrong
G Am
It's been embedded inside us since our first breaths
C
We're destroying the world where we live
G Am
But I'm sitting here watching a T.V. in bed
C
Wondering why I lack happiness
[Refrão]
Am C
Oh disappointing mouth
Am
Say something more than
C
Another word about
C
How's your life's difficult
G
Now!
Am C
La la la la la la (x2)
N.C.

verse 3
N.C.
Riff 1
Life is all monotony Sprinkled with some moments of unforeseen extremes
Riff 1
In between more sleeping
Riff 1
How will the prison showers be? Will I have to punch somebody just to get clean?
Riff 1
Will there be something for me to eat?
verse 4
G Am
All of us are just frightened roosters in a ring
C
Ready to pounce and fight anything
G Am
Though none of us will ever know what freedom is
C
We have certainly felt lack of it
G Am
Proverbs and clichés remind me that
C
I should learn to appreciate what I can get
G Am
But they're forcing us to live within our own shit
C
And I wasn't born to be a pig
[Refrão]
Am C
Oh disappointing mouth
Am
Hold your tongue
C
So the cops don't come and beat the words from you
G
Sing in tune now!
Am C
La la la la la la (x4)
