[Verse 1]
All the Gwords in my mouth
that the Emscene deemed unworthy of letting out
banded Amtogether to form a makeshift militia
and burrowed Dbloodily through my tongue and my teeth.
I stood Gproud in the gallery
With my Emopen socket of a mouth for them to see.
They all jusAmt laughed and said
"That boy, Dhe, that boy's got Amwoe....DWoe.
He lives with Amwoe....DWoe."
[Verse 2]
And this Ggirl who I met
Whose Empride makes her hard to forget,
She tooAmk pity on me horizontally
But most Dlikely because of my band.(hey)
It's all I can gGet when I'm lonely
And these Emvisions of death seem to own me
In the Amquiet of the classrooms
All Dacross the stacked United States of AmWoe....DWoe.
We live with Amwoe....DWoe
[Verse 3]
She said "I can't get Amlaid in this town
Without these Dpointy fucking shoes.
My feet are Amso black and blue and so are yDou."
Please take me Cout of my Gbody
Up Emthrough the Dpalm trees
To Csmell CalGifornia in Emsweet hyDpocrisy.
CFloating my Gsenses suEmrround my boDdy.
CI wake my Gnose to Emsmell that Docean burn.

Chords in this song · guitar

[Verse 1]

All the words in my mouth

that the scene deemed unworthy of letting out

banded together to form a makeshift militia

and burrowed bloodily through my tongue and my teeth.

I stood proud in the gallery

With my open socket of a mouth for them to see.

They all just laughed and said

D Am D

"That boy, he, that boy's got woe....Woe.

Am D

He lives with woe....Woe."

[Verse 2]

And this girl who I met

Whose pride makes her hard to forget,

She took pity on me horizontally

But most likely because of my band.(hey)

It's all I can get when I'm lonely

And these visions of death seem to own me

In the quiet of the classrooms

D Am D

All across the stacked United States of Woe....Woe.

Am D

We live with woe....Woe

[Verse 3]

She said "I can't get laid in this town

Without these pointy fucking shoes.

Am D

My feet are so black and blue and so are you."

C G

Please take me out of my body

Em D

Up through the palm trees

C G Em D

To smell California in sweet hypocrisy.

C G Em D

Floating my senses surround my body.

C G Em D

I wake my nose to smell that ocean burn.

[Interlude]

C G Em D

Ha ha

[Bridge]

So now I'm forging ahead

G D

Past all the plutocrats who sold me out

Go sob in your bed

G D

If life is twice as pretty once you're dead

Then send me a card.

G D

I'm still the optimist, though it is hard

Am D

When all you want to be,

C G Em D

is in a dream.

C G Em D

A dream...

[Outro]
