Barenaked Ladies
"Angry People"
From the album Barenaked Ladies are Men
---------------------------------------
INTRO: E7 A C#m D E A C#m D E
1.
A C#m
That's the problem, dear, with angry people, they
D E
Try to go it alone
Digging in and making cranky feeble pleas that
Other angries disown
Angry people think a good soluion is
Getting others involved
So they surround themselves with happy people
And watch their smiles dissolve
[Chorus]
Bm E
We just drag them down
Bm E
We just drag them down
Bm E
We just drag them down
N.C. A C#m D E A C#m D E
Until they're just like us.
2.
Angry people get so sanctimonious
Telling us what to do
Hoping no one outs them all as phonies just
Cause we are all phonies too.
Those of us who once had wives and families
Understand what I mean
What was once a calm and peaceful refuge
Is overtaken by spleen
[Chorus]
Cause we just drag them down
We just drag them down
We just drag them down
A (carries through to bridge)
Until they're just like us.
[Bridge]
(A) C#m D
I am the singer in the band
F#m E A
We're only trying to lend a hand
C#m D
And though it's not what we had planned
E
We understand
[Chorus]
That we just drag you down
We just drag you down
We just drag you down
Until you're just like us.
A C#m D E x2
3.
In a square, a thousand angry people are
Waving signs in the air
While a million other happy people are
Trying hard not to care.
All the happy people's biggest problem is
Never fearing the worst
All the rest of us will never sleep until
Your happy bubbles are burst
[Chorus]
We just drag you down
Didn’t I just drag you down
We just drag you down
A C#m D
Until you're just like us.
Dm Bm E
Oh, Until you’re just like us
N.C.
Till you’re just like us
Ending: N.C. - - -
A C#m D E (repeat as long as desired)
