Alternate between  C   Em   G   Amrespectively all throughout song 
We'll end up numb from playing video games
and we'll get sick of having sex.
And we'll get fat from eating candy;
as we drink ourselves to death.
We'll stay up late
mixing mix tapes,
photo-shopping pictures of ourselves;
as we masturbate to these pixelated images
of strangers fucking themselves.
We are very busy people,
We are very busy people.
There's crusty socks
and stacks of pizza boxes
leading trails straight to the bed.
And when we're done sleeping
we'll stay busy dreaming of the things
that we do not have yet.
Well there's a long list of chores and shit to do
before we play, oh let's just piss away the day.
Crank call the cops down at the station,
just for friendly conversation,
requesting songs they never play;
Let's hear the one that goes like:
We are very busy people,
We are very busy people;
But we've always got time for new friends.
So come on over and knock on our door,
it's open what you waiting for?
We may be sprawled out on the floor,
but we still make lovely company.
Pull up a chair, I'll pour some tea,
We'll shoot the shit, 'bout everything,
till you get sick of politics,
and flip on the TV screen,
we stare at the TV screen.
That Donnie Darko DVD has been playing for a week,
and we know every single word.
I got an iPod like a pirate ship,
I'll sail the sea
with fifty thousand songs I never heard-
And all the best of them go
La la la la la la...
la la la la la la...

We'll end up numb from playing video games

and we'll get sick of having sex.

And we'll get fat from eating candy;

as we drink ourselves to death.

We'll stay up late

mixing mix tapes,

photo-shopping pictures of ourselves;

as we masturbate to these pixelated images

of strangers fucking themselves.

We are very busy people,

We are very busy people.

There's crusty socks

and stacks of pizza boxes

leading trails straight to the bed.

And when we're done sleeping

we'll stay busy dreaming of the things

that we do not have yet.

Well there's a long list of chores and shit to do

before we play, oh let's just piss away the day.

Crank call the cops down at the station,

just for friendly conversation,

requesting songs they never play;

Let's hear the one that goes like:

We are very busy people,

We are very busy people;

But we've always got time for new friends.

So come on over and knock on our door,

it's open what you waiting for?

We may be sprawled out on the floor,

but we still make lovely company.

Pull up a chair, I'll pour some tea,

We'll shoot the shit, 'bout everything,

till you get sick of politics,

and flip on the TV screen,

we stare at the TV screen.

That Donnie Darko DVD has been playing for a week,

and we know every single word.

I got an iPod like a pirate ship,

I'll sail the sea

with fifty thousand songs I never heard-

And all the best of them go

La la la la la la...

la la la la la la...
