[Intro]

[Verse 1]
ERich bored kids
Pissing away fortunes
They'll be oAn their skids
Mothers will be tortured
And their daEds on pills
Full of disappointment
Cuz they gAot no skills
CF#man't fix shit but it'll bAe okay
When all the money's gEone away
And thBey'll be free
When they're reckless just likAe meAm  
When they're reckless just like Eyou
You've been stuck inside a dAream
The one where you lose all your tEeeth
And you're in school without your cAlothes onA6  
But you'll bAe okay
Everyone I know has got their debEt to pay
Sell your soul to make it, that's the moBdern way
Are you reckless just like AmeAm  
Are you ready
[Bridge]
OEblivion is Ccoming onA  
EOblivion is Ccoming onA  
[Verse 2]
NEothing's real
I really mean it, that's the wAay I feel
You see right through it cuz you're jEust like me
The greatest magic trick you've eAver seen
CoF#mme on and disappear with...
[Instrumental 3]

OEblivion land of uncertainty will cCome alongA  
ObElivion land of uncertainty will coCme alongA  
OEblivion land of uncertainty will coCme alonAg
OEblivion land of uncertainty will coCme aloAng

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

Rich bored kids

Pissing away fortunes

They'll be on their skids

Mothers will be tortured

And their dads on pills

Full of disappointment

Cuz they got no skills

F#m A

Can't fix shit but it'll be okay

When all the money's gone away

And they'll be free

A Am

When they're reckless just like me

When they're reckless just like you

You've been stuck inside a dream

The one where you lose all your teeth

A A6

And you're in school without your clothes on

But you'll be okay

Everyone I know has got their debt to pay

Sell your soul to make it, that's the modern way

A Am

Are you reckless just like me

Are you ready

[Bridge]

Oblivion is coming on

[Verse 2]

Nothing's real

You see right through it cuz you're just like me

The greatest magic trick you've ever seen

Come on and disappear with...
