_____________________________________________________
VERSES:
Ooh, it's Gmscrambled eggs what he says
He acGmcuses me of treachery
GmGot the nine lies, got the wide eyes,
got a Cfailing grade in chemistry
If you Gmcount back to the balcony
when all we Gmsaw was a mystery
of a Cblonde-haired boy brought his mother joy
with his Fpedigree and family Gmtree
Oh, Gmlay it all out on a wicker couch 
that you Gmwove in a loony bin
GmCut it out, it's a second-round bout
not the Cway of a gentleman
GmAh, give it up, get a job,
Gmtake a pill and leave me be
He's got a Csynapse lapse he don't think he has 
but it's Fbeen proven empiricalGmly
_____________________________________________________
CHORUS:
"If Gmthey take something precious from me,
I'm gonna Ctake something precious from them."
Oh Gmnow he's losing his constituency, 
we thought "Oh, Dthis could never happen again."
If GmI take something precious from him,
he try to Ctake something precious from me
There's a Gmbattle in his head that he cannot win
There's a Dman that he could never be
COh no 
Way to Fgo
He's the Gmmayor
_____________________________________________________
VERSES:
Oh, GmI'm quite tired of this lunatic
Why must we Gmsuffer 'cuz the mayor's sick?
He say: Gm"All abandon from this sinking ship."
and he's Coff on another trip
No, Gmhe don't care about environment
He has Gmmade this a shitty place
My Cinterest rate shrinks at a rapid pace
compounded Fdaily on my worried Gmface
_____________________________________________________
CHORUS (x2):
"If Gmthey take something precious from me,
I'm gonna Ctake something precious from them."
Oh Gmnow he's losing his constituency, 
we thought "Oh, Dthis could never happen again."
If GmI take something precious from him,
he try to Ctake something precious from me
There's a Gmbattle in his head that he cannot win
There's a Dman that he could never be
COh no 
Way to Fgo
He's the Gmmayor
_____________________________________________________
OUTRO:
You're gonna D#hang your head and cry
Your gonna haFng your head and cry
you're gonna Gmcry
(He's the mayor)
(Oh no, way to go, he's the mayor)

VERSES:

Ooh, it's scrambled eggs what he says

He accuses me of treachery

Got the nine lies, got the wide eyes,

got a failing grade in chemistry

If you count back to the balcony

when all we saw was a mystery

of a blonde-haired boy brought his mother joy

F Gm

with his pedigree and family tree

Oh, lay it all out on a wicker couch

that you wove in a loony bin

Cut it out, it's a second-round bout

not the way of a gentleman

Ah, give it up, get a job,

take a pill and leave me be

He's got a synapse lapse he don't think he has

F Gm

but it's been proven empirically

_____________________________________________________

CHORUS:

"If they take something precious from me,

I'm gonna take something precious from them."

Oh now he's losing his constituency,

we thought "Oh, this could never happen again."

If I take something precious from him,

he try to take something precious from me

There's a battle in his head that he cannot win

There's a man that he could never be

Oh no

Way to go

He's the mayor

He has made this a shitty place

My interest rate shrinks at a rapid pace

compounded daily on my worried face
