AmGF First we were babies we're birthing and dying AmGF Then we were children we're playing and crying AmGF Then we're teenagers we're smoking and fucking AmGF Now we're all grownup and we're sadly sighing AmGF And lacking but lurking and licking our wounds AmGF We've created by lusting and lying E To ourselves and to others AmGF E We're sadly sigh-hyhy-hy-hyhy-hyhy-hy-hyhy-hy-ing AmGF E We're sadly sigh-hyhy-hy-hyhy-hy-hyhy-hy-hyhy-hy-ing AmGF E We're sadly sigh-hyhy-hy-hyhy-hy-hyhy-hy-hyhy-hy-ing AmGF E We're sadly sigh-hyhy-hy-hyhy-hy-hyhy-hy-hyhy-ing
AmGF And I'd like to be a big ball of meat AmGF For bees to buzz around and eat E When I die so I might be granted Am One sense of purpose
