"Armitage Shanks" by Green Day

This is tabbed by ear but it and the lyrics are pretty close. I had a hard
time tabbing this
 'cause you can barely hear the guitar on the song.

Armatage Shanks (aka "Claustrophobic Mind")
Green Day

With some additional research, I uncovered this.  Here are the real lyrics to
the song I thought was
called "Claustrophobic Mind".  It's real title is "Armatage Shanks" and I
guess it was performed at
the 1994 MTV Video Music Awards.  Sorry about the goof up.  -Adam

Stranded
Lost inside myself
I always have been my own closest enemy
Well I'm branded
Maladjusted
Never trusted anyone out of myself

Why am I a sensation
Being a pesimist
I'm a loner in a claustrophobic mind

Erected
Feel rejected
I'm prepared to silence all 3 in a year
Well I'm branded
Maladjusted
Never trusted anyone out of myself

I must insist
On being a pesimist
I'm a loner in a claustrophobic mind

Whoa oh, whoa oh

Branded
Lost inside myself
I always have been my own closest enemy
Well I'm branded
Maladjusted
Never trusted anyone out of myself

Why am I a sensation
Being a pesimist
I'm a loner in a claustrophobic mind
Well I'm taking pressure for other pessimists
I'm a loner in a claustrophobic mind

Here's a tab for only the truest of Green Day fans.  This song is only played
at concerts,
and as of August '95, I have never seen it in release (even on imports).  With
some luck,
this song will show up on Green Day's new album, along with "Geek Stink Love",
another great rarity.  The lyrics (and the title) are guesses.

might be a bit off. Sorry.
