[Verse 1]
[A5]In m[Em]y[A][Em][Bm][Em]

[Eb][Eb5][D][Eb][Cm][C5][D][Eb][A5][C5][A5][G5][Bb][Bb5]
[A5][D][Dm][D][Dm][D]

[Verse 2]
You keep your [D]riches and
[Dm]I'll sew my stitches
[D]You can't make me think like you,
mundane
I've got a message [Dm]for all
those who think [D]that
They can etch his [G#]word[D] s
inside my [Eb]brain[C5][D]
In[Eb]side [A5]my br[C5]ain[A5]
[G5][Bb]

[Verse 3]
TV, [D]what do [Dm]I ne[D]ed?[Eb][Cm]
[C5]Tell me wh[D]o to belie[Eb]ve
[A5]What's the use of autonomy when[G5]
a [Bb]button does [G5]it a[D]ll?[Dm]
When a little button does it [D]all,
does it [C]all?
[D]

[Verse 4]
So, listen up, listen up closely,
[Dm]all
Who've seen the fucking eye-ache [D]too
too
It's time to step away from cable train
And when we finally see
the subtle [Dm]light
This quirk in evol[D]ution will begin
To let us live and re[Eb]cre a[C5]te[D][Eb]
[C5]Cre [A5]ate again[G5][Bb]

[Verse 5]
[Bb]
[Eb]TV, [Eb5]what d[Dm]o I need? [D]Tell[Eb][C5]
[D]me who to be[Eb]lieve
[A5]What[C5]'s th[A5]e use of autonomy
[G5]when a [Bb]button [Eb]does it all?
[Eb5]TV, wh[D]at did I se[Eb]e? Te[C5]ll me[D]
who should I [Eb]be[A5]
Let's do our [A]Mom a [A5]favor and drop a [Bb]new God off [G5]the wall

[Interlude 2]

[G][G5]
[G]Let

[Verse 6]
[C5]me s[G5]ee past
the fatuous knocks
I've got to rid myself of this idiot box
Let you see past the feathers and flocks
And help me plant a bomb
in this idiot box

[Verse 7]
From the [D]depths of the sea,
to the [Dm]tops of [D]the trees
To the seat of a La-Z-Boy staring staring
staring at [D5]a silve[D]r sc[D5]reen[D]

[Verse 8]
[D5]TV, [D]what do I [Eb]need? [C5]Tell
[D]me who to [Eb]believe
[A5]What's the use of autonomy
[G5]when a [Bb]button does it [Eb]all?
[A5]TV, [D]what did I s[D5]ee? [Eb]Tell [C5]me[D5]
who should I [D]be[Eb][A5][C5][A5]
Let's [A]do our Mom a favor [A5]and d[G5]rop a [Bb]new God off t[Bb5]he wal[D]l,
[D5]wall[D][Eb5][Eb][Eb5][D5]
