Well, outside my window there's a whole lot of trouble comin'
                            C         F
The cartoon killers and the rag cover clones
            G
Stack heals kickin' rhythm of social circumcision
                            C                F
Can't close the closet on a shoe box full of bones

Kangaroo lady with her bourbon in a pouch

Can't afford the rental on a bamboo couch

Collecting back her favors 'cause her well is running dry

I know her act is terminal but she ain't gonna die

Slim intoxicado drinkin' dime store hooch

Is always in a circle with his part-time pooch

Little creepy's playing dollies on the New York rain

Thinkin' Bowie's just a knife

Oh the pain I ain't seen the sun since I don't know when

G
Blind man in the box that will probably die
G
The village kids laugh as they walk by
G
A psycho is on the edge of this human garbage dump
G
And the vultures in the sewers are telling him to jump
C   F      G
Into the fire from the frying pan
C               F            G
Tripping on his tongue for a cool place to stand
C             F                D    C# C
Where's this shade that you've got it made
