[Intro]
A
A D
We all, we all, we all, we all know this is nothing
A D
We all, we all, we all, we all know this is nothing
A D
We all, we all, we all, we all know this is nothing
This is nowhere
A D
We all, we all, we all, we all know this is nowhere
There is no one
A
Here
[Verse 1]
A
It moves like a virus and enters our skin
Dmaj7
The first sign divides us, the second is moving to Berlin
A
But that's not the state I'm in
Dmaj7 A
The air is thin but that's not the state
A
The old guys are frightened and frightening to behold
The kids come out fighting and still doing what they're told
Dmaj7
But you're waking a monster that will drive you from your hoary holes of gold
A
And your body will get cold
[Chorus]
C
And we don't waste time with love
G A
It's just death from above
[Verse 2]
A
Your head is on fire, your hands are getting weak
We all, we all get stupid in the heat
Dmaj7
You've basted your brains with the shatter and defeat up on the street
A
And this is nowhere
A
The early years were boring
The quiet, unhappy punk
Dmaj7
See mother was a cripple and my father was a drunk but gentle man
A
So we do the best we can
Dmaj7
This is the plan
A
Wear your makeup like a man
[Chorus]
C
'Cause we don't waste time with love
G
Yeah, we don't waste time with love
A
It's just a push and a shove
[Verse 3]
A
Well, there's a full-blown rebellion but you're easy to confuse
By triggered kids and fakers and some questionable views
Oh, call the cops, call the preachers!
Before they let us and they lose
Dmaj7
When oh, we all start arguing the history of the Jews
A
You got nothing left to lose
Gives me the blues
[Chorus]
C
And we don't waste time with love
C
And we don't waste time with love
C D
[Outro]
A
So call the police
Yeah, call the police
Yeah, call the police
Yeah, call the police
Yeah, call the police
Yeah, call the police
Just chase the cops
Yeah, call the police
You're crazy, man
Yeah, call 'em up
Just call the police
The first in line
They're gonna eat the rich
