The Booji Boy speech (over the chords that were used throughout):
I don't know what's goin' on in the world these days
It seems like ev'rybody's just got ev'rything turned around
People don't seem to care about their fellow man
They're all just goin' for that big ice cream cone in the sky
They haven't figured out what happens when your eyes get bigger
Than your belly
Like an ostrich who eats his pizza with his head stuck in the sand
If they can't see it, it isn't there
And you know, it really does take a worried man
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
I may be worried now but he won't be worried long
G    A   D
I'll see you GthereA  D  
We'll have a Ggood timeA  D  
N.C.
Do you feel it comrades?
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
I may be worried now but he won't be worried long
Takes a worried man to sing a worried song
I may be worried now but he won't be worried long
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
I may be worried now but he won't be worried long
Takes a worried man to sing a worried song
I may be worried now but he won't be worried long
I'll see you there
We'll have a good time
Well all right
end
barrel go boom, barrel go boom...
