Biography:
Eels is an American alternative/acoustic indie rock band formed by singer/songwriter Mark Oliver Everett, better known as "Mr. E" or simply E. Other members rotate frequently, both in the studio and on stage. Eels were officially founded in 1995 when Jonathan 'Butch' Norton and E met Tommy Walter. The name "Eels" was chosen so that the band's records would be close to E's solo records in an alphabetical ordering. In 1996 the band released their debut album Beautiful Freak.

[Intro]
Am Am Am Am
[Verse]
Am Am
A monk with a hard-on, And a lavender robe
Dm E
That scratches his thighs, Through the hat that he strode
Am Am
As he follows a path, Filled with every desire
Dm E Am
And mimics his footsteps, And sets his prayers on fire.
[Verse]
Am Am
Well I too have chosen, That which left no choice
Dm E
To sing without loving,A solitary voice,
Am Am
To observe with passion, Each careful denial
Dm E Am
The protrusions which give my life meaning for a while.
[Chorus]
A Dm
Sometimes I see you in berries and weeds
C F
You're brushing your teeth with liquorice seeds
F A#
Standing too close, Pulling your clothes,
E
Smiling at God And the meaning of life grows.
[Verse]
Am Am
No and I'll never tell, And I'll never know
Dm E
What candles you light, After the show
Am Am
And I'll never tell, And I'll never ask
Dm E
The meaning of life after mass.
Am Am7
