[B] [A] [C] [A] [F] [G] [F] [C] [D] [E]
[E]I do wrong, strictly speaking,[G] just for myself.
Because it[E] makes me feel like a real man,
To hold he[G]gemony over my business.
And I,[Dm] I refuse to [C]be abused by the[Cmaj7] milieu of [Fmaj7]wistful decay.
D E F F/E F/D (ch)F/C#(/ch) C/G E
Besides I'm used to all of my scruples deserting me like they've done today.
The [B]lady from the block hunched over on the sto[A]op,
With her [C]withered old titty [A]out,
Saying, "I've been [F]rolled so [G]many [F]times,
It's just [C] feeding the pigeons".
[B] Now her grandson swings a living rabbit by the [A]leg,
While his [C]mother's playing two wooden [A]flutes.
I went to [F]repo some [G]fugitive [F]air to es[C]cape the [D]street's vagar[E]y aesthetic.
Has anybody here seen my old friend Blob?
Oh, has anybody seen where he's gone?
What he thinks I owe him is his former life,
But how can I unmake someone else's mistakes?
I guess I was his anti-hero,
The bitter word on his lips.
I hope I never feel a terror like when you discovered your autonomy had flipped.
[C/G]I feel like I possess [Cdim7]only the [F]bad aspects,
[Cdim7]Of invisi[G]bility,[F] but none of the [C/G]good ones.[E7]
[C/G]Are we walking mausoleums[Cdim7] of scented [F]rotting flesh?
[Cdim7]Mother always [G]liked you best,
[F]Liked your teeth [C/G]upon her breasts.
[C/G]They removed the oils from the [Cdim7]eyes of [F]street cats,
Through s[Cdim7]ome shitty [G]witchcraft,
[F]And apply it to their [C/G]brows and geni[E7]talia
[C/G]I had no idea how [Cdim7]deeply I [F]wounded you,
But I [Cdim7]don't need no [G]forgiveness,
[F]And no level of con[C/G]trition will ever [E7]do.
La la la, la la la la la la, la la la la la la, la la la la la la la la.
La la la, la la la la la la, la la la la la la, la la la la la la la la.
