Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]A[G][F][C][G][F]
[C][G][F][C][G]
[F]man[C] walks o[G]ut of his[F] apartment
[C]It is [G]raining
He's [F]got no umbrella
[C]He starts [G]running be
[F]neath the awnings
Trying [G]to save [F]his suit
Trying to [G]save [F]his suit
Tryin' to [G]dryin' to try[F]in'
to dry but no good
[C][G][F]

[Verse 2]
[C]When he [G]gets to the [F]crowded
subway platform
He takes off [G]both of his [F]shoes
[C]He steps right [G]into some
[F]body's fat loogie
And everyone who [G]sees
him says [F]"ew"
[G]Everyone who sees him [F]says "ew"

[Verse 3]
But he [F]doesn't [C]care
Cause last [F]night he got a visit
From the [C]ghost of corporate future
The ghost [C]said take off
both your [F]shoes
Whatever chances you [C]get
Especially when they're wet

[Verse 4]
He also [C]said
Imagine [G]you go [F]away on a
[C]business [G]trip [F]one day
And when you [G]come back [F]home
Your children have [G]grown and you
[F]never made your wife moan
You children have [G]grown and you
[F]never made your wife moan

[Verse 5]
And [F]people make you nervous
You'd think the world was ending
An[C]d everybody's features have [Dm]some
how started [G]blending
[F]And everything is p[G]lastic
An[F]d everyone's sarcastic
[C]And all your food is frozen
It need[Dm]s to be defrosted
You'd [F]think the world [G]was ending
You'd [F]think [C]the world was
[Dm]endi[F]ng[G]
You'd [F]think [C]the world
was ending right [Dm]now

[Verse 6]
Well [C]maybe [G]you should just
[F]drink a lot less coffee
And [C]never ever [G]watch
the ten o'clock [F]news
[C]Maybe [G]you should [F]kiss someone nice
Or [C]lick [G]a rock
[F]Or both
[C]Maybe [G]you should [F]cut your own hair
Cause [C]that can [G]be so [F]funny
It [C]doesn't [G]cost any [F]money
And it always grows [C]back
Hair [G]grows even [F]after you're dead

[Verse 7]
[F]People are just people
They shouldn't make you nervous
The [C]world is everlasting
It's [Dm]coming and it's [G]going
[F]If you don't toss your plastic
The streets won't be so plastic
An[C]d if you kiss somebody
Then both [Dm]of you'll get practi[G]ce

[Verse 8]
The [F]world is ever[G]lasting
[F]Put dirtballs in your pockets
[C]Put dirtballs in your pockets
And take [Dm]off both your shoes
Cause [F]people are just [G]people
[F]People are just people
[C]People [Dm]are just [F]peo[G]ple
[F]lik[C]e you[Dm]

[Verse 9]
[G]The world is everlasting
[C]It's coming[Dm] and it's goi[G]ng[C]
The [G]world is everlasting
[C]It's coming[Dm] and it's goi[G]ng

[Outro 1]
[C][Dm][G]
