E
[Verse 1]
Well I can Esee my teenage father standing F#straight on a desolate corner,
In the Ashadow of tentacle towers by the Bred light of America, oh.E  
I imagine how his F#mother felt when she Aheard that her husband was Bdying,
And that Eunderground heroes of the tarF#mac shooting smack were Ablowing up worlds
And Bdamned out loud. E  
Hey, can you F#tell me how does it Bfeel?
[Chorus]           
Yeah, tell me, ACan you imagine, Efor a second,B  
Doing anything Ethat you don't have to?A  
Well that's what I'm acEcustomed to so hooBray for me.
[Verse 2]
When I Eslept with stony faces on the F#riverbank.
My Aangeldevil reveller shook me Bdesperately in dying.E  
I don't exactly F#want to apologize for Banything.
And now we're Eall madF#,
And tangledA, 
In secret roomsB, 
With roman candles,E  
On an endF#less graveyard Btrain,
[Chorus]
Yeah, tell meA, can you imagineE, for a secondB, 
Doing anything Ejust 'cuz you want to?A  
Well, that's just Ewhat I do so hooBray for me
[Verse 3]
I was Edreaming through the hF#owzlife, yawning, caAr black in my miBnd,
when she Etold me mad and F#meaningless as Aever.B  
And a Esong came on my F#radio like a Acemetery Brhyme,
For a Emillion crying F#corpses in their Btragedy of respectable existence.A  
[Chorus]
Can you imagineE, for a secondB, 
Trying half the thingsE, you ever wanted toA?
Well, that's just Ewhat I do so hooBray for me.
Oh, yeahA, I'm unrespectableE, never sensibleB,
Maybe incredibleE, so damned irascibleA.
And I like the Ethings I do so hooBray for me
And fuck Eyou.
