Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]I'm gonna [G]steal [C]some [F]bedsheets
From an amputee
[C]I'm gonna [G]mount 'em [Am]on a[C] canvas
[D]In the middle of the gallery
[G]I'm[F] gonna tell everybody
[Fm]It w[F]as paint[Am]ed by a chim[G]panzee
[D]Jus[Am]t between you[G] and[D] me
Here at the [G]cultural low watermark
If it's fraud or art
They'll pay you to believe
[C]

[Verse 2]
I'm gonna [G]take five [C]young dudes
[F]From white families
[C]I'm gonna mou[G]nt 'em on [Am]a billb[C]oard
[D]In the middle of the country
[G]I'm[F] gonna tell everybody
[Fm]They sing like[E] angels[Am]
with whiter [D]teeth
But [Am]just between [G]you and [D]me
They're just like the [G]ones
before
With their standards lower
Another concert-goer will
will pay you to believe
[C]

[Verse 3]
Oh, [F]caffeine in the morning,
[C]alcohol at night
[F]Cameras to record you and
mirror[C]s to recognize
And as [G]the [Am]world is getting smaller,
small things [D]take up all your time
Narcissus [Am]would have had a field day
[G]if [D]he could have got online
And friends it's [G]not self-love
that that kills you
It's when those who [Am]hate
you [C]are [Am]al l[D]owed
To sell you that [G]you're a glorious shit
The entire [Am]world revolves [D]around
And that you're the [G]eater,
no not the eaten
But that your [Am]hunger will [Em]only [D]cease
If you come [G]binge on radiant blandness
At the [Am]dis posable feast
[D]

[Verse 4]
You're en[F#m]joying the chill winter playlist
Just [D]quickly [F]how would
you rate yourself
Indie Brunch
In terms of sex appeal [Am]and
[F]cultural signi[Dm]ficance?
[F]Irony, irony,
blo-blo-blo-blo-blo-blo-blo
Do Do Do Do Do Do Do you [Bb]usually
[Gm]listen [Bb]to music like t[C]his?
Just one [Bb]more mile, you can do it again
[F]Can we recom[Bb]mend [Dm]some
simil[Gm]ar ar[Bb]tists?
This is totally the song of my summer
Are [Gm]you feeling depressed?
This guy just gets me
But your feed[F#]back's im
[Gm]portant [D]to u[F#]s[F]

[Verse 5]
Music is my life
[C]
Gonna [G]buy myself [C]a sports team
[F]And put 'em in a p[C]it
I'm gonna [Am]wage the old [C]crusade
[D]Against consciousnes[G]s[F]
All I need's a couple winner[Fm]s
To get [F]every [Am]loser to fight in [D]it
Keep the golden calf
[Am]Just need the bullshit
[D]And they won't just sel[G]l
themselves into slavery
They'll get on their knees
and pay you to believe
