song called 'Vicious'."]

Huh... baby you're so vicious
[Bridge 1]
A
When I watch you come
G D C G D
I just want to run far away

You're not the kind of person

Around whom I want to stay
Em F#m G
When I see you comin' down the street

I step on your hands and I mangle your feet

Hey, why don't you swallow razor blades
You must think I'm some kinda gay blade
D C G D
But baby, you're so vicious
[Chorus 2]
When I watch you comin'
I just have to run
You're not good and you certainly aren't very much fun
When I see you walkin' down the street
I step on your hand and I mangle your feet
You're not the kind of person that I even wanna meet
'Cause you're so vicious
[Coda] [repeat main riff to fade]:
Vicious
Vicious...
