Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Emotio[A]n drains
[Bm]Like[G] the contents
of a cool[D]er
[G]My thorax [D]is [Em]Styro[A]foam

[Verse 2]
[D]I'm a cheap [A]spent she[Bm]ll[G]
And a bio haz[D]ard
[G]Grind me up [D]then mail me away
[Em][A]

[Verse 3]
[G]Maybe trans[F#m]mogrified
[A]I'l[G]l be [D]sat[A]isfied
That finally [G]at long last I'm
[A]har[Asus4]mless[A]

[Verse 4]
It [D]is [A]simply so[Bm][G]
It's my chemical [D]makeup
[G]I slough it [D]off every 28 days
[Em][A]

[Verse 5]
[D]
[A]So raise your [Bm]hand[G]
And ask yourself a question
[D]But make it [G]the[D] powerful one[Em][A]

[Verse 6]
And [G]if you an[F#m]swer by r[A]ote
[G]And pap comes [D]from your [A]throat
Just tidy [G]up and think of me in [A]pieces

[Verse 7]
Yeah, the lousy po[G]et in
[A]me can't [D]lie no more
And the [G]warrior [A]in me
Has gone [Bb]and died before
And that [D]hard, hand[A]some [Bm]Olympian
Was forced to [A]retire

[Verse 8]
So [D]dig [A]out the[Bm] films[G]
And all those yellowed [D]clippings
[G]Do them up [D]then stash them for [Em]good[A]

[Verse 9]
Then [D]raise [A]you[D]r hand[Bm][G]
And ask yourself a ques[D]tion
But make [G]it [D]the powerful one

[Outro 1]
[Em][A][Em][Bb]
