 D#mClap if you’ve got a ticket to the end of the G#worldF#  G#  
 D#mClap if you’ve got a ticket to the end of the G#worldF#  G#

 It was his D#mlast day on the force
 He was G#going through divorce
 He was a F#living breathing action screenplay G#cliche
 They said that they D#mfound it in the basement
 Enough to just G#blow that roof to the pavement
 And he was the F#man for the job, a one-man bomb squad
 A G#middle aged mess thinking
[Chorus]
 I feel like I’m gonna exBplode
 Any D#mmoment
 I’m ready to bC#low
 I can’t stG#and it
 I get so worrBied

 Their last D#mhopes on him they’d hung
 And they G#weighed him like a ton
 But perhaps for F#him he’d none much left to G#lose
 Tony, don’t D#msweat it, keep your hands steady
 You were born on a G#dare but you were born ready
 Cut the red F#wire or was that the green wire?
 You’re on fire likeG#
