Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

I gotta lot of people telling me I smell like the dead

Apparently they cannot see that I'm already walking 'round without a head

I gotta problem with the object of the ongoing game

Set the self upon the shelf and drag your shell through the day

But look at all the stars, we've come so far

Even if we don't know where we are, it's gotta be somewhere great

Or am I just too tired to wink?

I've seen a thousand towns without an ounce of hot irony

It leaves me begging for aesthetics

Please offend someone sweet in front of me

I'm sloughing brains, I'm sloughing brain cells everyday

Smearing the globe my lobe frontally frayed, hey 'eh!

Look at all the stars, we've come so far

Even if we don't know where we are, it's gotta be somewhere great

Man, I don't even know what you're saying

But I can't wait for more of this to come my way

'Cos you take what you get and you try not to think

Or am I just too tired to wink?

I store a cyclops for a week with hard-tack in the clink

If ever he would bat a lid I thought it was a wink

But the world is flush with monocular mush and dingbats to despise

You find they're not thinking, just narrowly blinking

But never quite cleaning their eyes

(chords in the chorus can be played over the solo)

We've come so far, even if we don't know where we are

It's gotta be somewhere great

Man, I don't even know what you're saying

But I can't wait for more of this to come my way

'Cos you take what you get and you try not to think

Or am I just too tired, or am I just too tired to wink?
