[Fig. 1]
F#5     A5  D5    F#5     A5  D5    F#5     A5  D5    E5
Once I saw the galaxies in your Jack and Coke eyes
F#5     A5  D5    F#5     A5  D5    F#5     A5  D5    E5
And the sacrificial temple where your monster always dies
F#5     A5  D5    F#5     A5  D5    F#5     A5  D5    E5
Once I wrote a gospel out of every word you'd say
F#5     A5  D5    F#5     A5  D5    F#5     A5  D5    E5
And now you're on the front page of the USA Today

[Fig. 2a & b]

Cut into the front of the line

I find my mind

Is no place to raise a family

And I was looking all over for you, baby

You were always right in front of me

And tonight I'm declaring your love

To be a waste of time and money

[Fig. 1]

Once you raised alpacas with your pet Komodo dragon

While I was eating cardboard in my father's station wagon

Once I sold everything I owned to buy your diamond ring

And now you're over at CNN sitting down with Larry King

[Fig. 2a & b]

After five bottles of wine

My friends opine

That I should consider therapy

But they've clearly never been with you, baby

They don't know about the things that you've done to me

And tonight I'm declaring my life

Is a joke nowhere near funny

All publicity is good publicity

When you sell your conscience in this city

Achieving high elasticity

Shock resistant with electricity

All publicity is good publicity

When you sell your conscience in this city

Achieving high elasticity

Shock your system with electricity
