Lyrics (i would turn on the tv, but its so embarrassing)
Dm Am G Am
F#m C#m B C#m
i would turn on the tv, but its so embarrassing
Dm Am G Am
F#m C#m B C#m
to see all the other people, i dont know what they mean
Dm Am G Am
F#m C#m B C#m
it was magic at first, when they spoke without sound
Dm Am G Am
F#m C#m B C#m
but now this world is gonna hurt, you better turn that thing down
Dm Am G Am
F#m C#m B C#m
Dm Am
F#m C#m
it wasnt me, says the boy with the gun
G Am
B C#m
sure i pulled the trigger, but it needed to be done
Dm Am
F#m C#m
because lifes been killing me ever since it begun
G Am
B C#m
you cant blame me because im too young
Dm Am G Am
F#m C#m B C#m
Dm Am
F#m C#m
you cant blame me, sure the killer was my son
G Am
B C#m
but i didnt teach him to pull the trigger of the gun
Dm Am
F#m C#m
its the killing on his tv screen
G Am
B C#m
you cant blame me, its those images he seen
Dm Am G Am
F#m C#m B C#m
Dm Am
F#m C#m
you cant blame me, says the singer of the song
G Am
B C#m
or the maker of the movie which he based his life on
Dm Am
F#m C#m
its only entertainment, as anyone can see
G Am
B C#m
its smoke machines and makeup, you cant fool me
Dm Am G Am
F#m C#m B C#m
Dm Am
F#m C#m
you cant blame me, says the media man
G Am
B C#m
i wasnt the one who came up with the plan
Dm Am
F#m C#m
i just point my camera at what the people want to see
G Am
B C#m
its a two way mirror and you cant blame me
Dm Am G Am
F#m C#m B C#m
Dm Am
F#m C#m
it was you, it was me, it was every man
G Am
B C#m
weve all got the blood on our hands
Dm Am
F#m C#m
we only receive what we demand
G Am
B C#m
and if we want hell then hells what we'll have
Dm Am G Am
F#m C#m B C#m
Dm Am G Am
F#m C#m B C#m
i would turn on the tv, but its so embarrassing
Dm Am G Am
F#m C#m B C#m
to see all the other people, dont know what they mean
Dm Am G Am
F#m C#m B C#m
it was magic at first, but let everyone down
Dm Am G Am
F#m C#m B C#m
and now this world is gonna hurt, you better turn it around
Dm Am Dm
F#m C#m F#m
turn it around.
