The New Radicals were an alternative rock/power pop band that formed in Los Angeles, California in 1997, being centered around front-man Gregg Alexander, who wrote and produced all of their songs. They released only one album, 1998's 'Maybe You've Been Brainwashed Too', a critically acclaimed pop rock album heavily influenced by classic rock and soul of the 60s and 70s that contained— amongst radio-friendly pop tracks and love songs— strong criticism of corporate America and modern culture.

There are a lot of ridiculously inaccurate transcriptions of this song floating around so here is the real deal.
I'm experimenting with a new transcription technique here that I think should make it easier to play -- follow the numbers for the complete lyrics and the order in which they should be played.
