[verse]
A C#
Check the covers for spiders
D A
before you go crawling in bed
A C#
You long to lie down beside her
D A
and plant ideas in her head
A C#
You are children of angels
D A
and you're living in sin
A C#
Well they've got just the place
D A
for the kind of trouble you're in
D A
And her head smells like flowers
A D A
and you're counting the hours between thunder showers
D A
Unleash your new superpowers
E
don't be a coward
A C#
Did you come to remember
D A
or did you come to forget
A C#
You went looking for Jesus
D A
but found the devil instead
A C# D
So many convictions
A
about life after death
A C#
But you just can't believe in
D A
any single one of them
D A
And it's all on your shoulders
D A
feels like a boulder you're just getting older
D A
The universe seems to grow colder
E
each time you behold her
[chorus]
D E
Alpha man father of every ones children
A F#m
The king of the kingdom of man
D E
You father your sons and your daughters
A F#m
All of them follow your every command
Bm E
You sire them all on your own
A F#m E
Then you kick them all out of your home
D E
Alpha man tell all of your children
A C#
to leave you alone
D E
Alpha man tell all of your children
F#m
To leave you alone
E D E F#m E D E A E D E F#m E D E
[bridge]
D A
Tuck the old folks into their new homes
D A
watch the skin slip off of their bones
D A
Watch out for pigeons on the telephone poles
E
they'll shit all over your clothes
[chorus]
