[Intro]
Am C Em A
(a a ah b b b buh) x4
[Verses]
        Am                              C
You're always aiming paper airplanes at me when you're around
    Em                                        A
You build me up like building blocks just so you can bring me down
Am                                     C
You can crush my candy cane but you'll never catch me cry
       Em                             A
If you dangle that diploma and I deck you, don't be surprised
          Am                   C
I know my ABC's, yet you keep teaching me
            Em                    A
I say, fuck your degree, alphabet boy
                 Am                            C
You think you're smarter than me with all your bad poetry
             Em               A
Fuck all your ABC's, alphabet boy
                 Em      D
I'm not a little kid now
              C      G
Watch me get big now
                     Em         D
Spell my name on the fridge now
                       C    G
With all your alphabet toys
                     Em      D
You won the spelling bee now
                         C       G
But are you smarter than me now?
                         Em         D
You're the prince of the playground
                A
Little alphabet boy
Am C Em A
(a a ah b b b buh) x4
Am                           C
Apples aren't always appropriate apologies
Em                                   A
Butterscotch and bubblegum drops are bittersweet to me
Am                                 C
You call me a child while you keep counting all your coins
    Em
But you're not my daddy and I'm not your dolly
    A
And your dictionary's destroyed
          Am                   C
I know my ABC's, yet you keep teaching me
            Em                    A
I say, fuck your degree, alphabet boy
                 Am                            C
You think you're smarter than me with all your bad poetry
             Em               A
Fuck all your ABC's, alphabet boy
                 Em      D
I'm not a little kid now
              C      G
Watch me get big now
                     Em         D
Spell my name on the fridge now
                       C    G
With all your alphabet toys
                     Em      D
You won the spelling bee now
                         C       G
But are you smarter than me now?

You're the prince of the playground
