EAb Art is dead DbmA Art is dead EAb Art is dead DbmA Art is dead
EAbDbm Entertainers like to seem complicated AE But we're not complicated AbDbm I can explain it pretty easily
AE Have you ever been to a birthday Ab Party for children Dbm And one of the children A Won't stop screaming E Cause he's just a little Ab Attention attractor Dbm When he grows up A To be a comic or actor E He'll be rewarded Ab For never maturing DbmA For never understanding or learning E That every day Ab Can't be about him Dbm There's other people A You selfish asshole
E I must be psychotic Ab I must be demented Dbm To think that I'm worthy A Of all this attention
EAb Of all of this money you worked really hard for DbmA I slept in late while you worked at the drug store EAb My drug's attention I am an addict DbmA But I get paid to indulge in my habit EAbDbm It's all an illusion I'm wearing make-up I'm wearing make-up A Make-up make-up make-up make-up
EAb Art is dead DbmA So people think you're funny how do we get those people's money EAb I said art is dead DbmAE We're rolling in dough while Carlin rolls in his grave AbDbmA His grave his grave
EAb The show has got a budget DbmA The show has got a budget EAbDbm And all the poor people way more deserving of the money A Won't budge it
EAb Cause I wanted my name in lights DbmA When I could have fed a family of four EAb For forty fucking fortnights DbmA Forty fucking fortnights
EAb I am an artist please God forgive me DbmA I am an artist please don't revere me EAb I am an artist please don't respect me DbmA I am an artist you're free to correct me
E A self-centered artist Ab Self-obsessed artist Dbm I am an artist A I am an artist
E But I'm just a kid Ab I'm just a kid Dbm I'm just a kid
