[Verse 1]
C# A/C#
Turn off the TV, it's time to settle down.
Bbm
And I've been ignoring newspapers, I've been staring at the ground
Ebm Eb/Ab
Because I'm waking up from nightmares, whenever I look around
Ab F#
and see we're stuck here in a situation of which we can't get out.
C#
The dreams I mentioned earlier all involve aeroplanes
Bbm
Launching missiles and themselves into shiny windowpanes
Ebm Eb/Ab
and the debris from the explosions fall to quick to run away
Ab F#
and today I woke up terrified 'cause reality's the same and I'm singin'
[Chorus]
C# Ab Bbm Fm
I'm terrorfied!!! I didn't vote for this.
F# E C# Fm
I'm gonna die for shit that ain't my fault.
Bbm Ab C# A
I'm terrorfied!!! I've overdosed on fear
F# Ab C# A
It turns out one day I'll really explode.
[Verse 2]
C#
So we'll start a giant deficit, so we'll roll back civil rights

and we'll color code our threat levels so we can see them when it's dark at night.

And our hostile corporate takeover DOES help me sleep alright.
Ab F#
Do you think Bush thanks God for 9/11 so he can feel justified?
C#
Yeah, the dreams I mentioned earlier all involve falling bombs
Bbm
With me crying in my bed why can't we all just get along.
Ebm Eb/Ab
And with a finger on a button someone's stopping all our wrongs.

Today I woke up terrified because the TV's on and I'm singin'

This year in September, I watched gas prices drop a quarter the day after the 10th.
Ab Bbm Fm
We're no safer and the fear's all we remember

But to honor them it's cheaper to drive to bomb shelters.
