Suddenly the universe was out of whack

"When I get my hands on that mother f**ker

Spilling our seeds into the serpent's garden
A E
Our young love muscles began to harden
C#m B
And that's when mother coughed and begged our pardon
A E
Cleared her throat and she said
A E
"You're such a good little boy and you always wanna please us
A B
Surely we can fix this with a little more Jesus
A B
And pray and pray that purple gay away"
E B
Hey Nancy boys this ones for you
G#m A
And the big pink bubble from the gum you chew
E B G#m A
It's such a hoot watching what you've turned into
E B
As the days fly pass
G#m A
We'll stand aghast, trapping you at a social impasse
E B
Run out the door just as fast as you can
G#m A N/C
And try to go back to the summer of the purple man
