[Verse 1]
G D
Saw Jim Reid in the corridor and I wondered if he could ever see me that way
G D
He was on my list at the grocery store when you grabbed my wrist and said you liked my keychain
G D
Read your feature in the weekly paper and honestly I found it a little bit bloated
G C D
Friday we fell through the coffee table and that’s when I discovered that my heart exploded
[Pre-chorus]
C D
How
C D
How
[Chorus 1]
G C D
You’re a lollipop, in the form of a lightning bolt
G C D
You’re a lollipop in my hair
G C D
But I’m a gumdrop, am I ever gonna fit that mould?
G C D
Because I don’t have the patience to wait in line for you, ooh
[Verse 2]
G D
When I came back to apologize you asked me if I was intrigued by LSD
G D
I sat next to you on the picnic bench and before I knew it you were flying next to me
G D
I met your baby at the exposition and frankly I found it a little unnerving
G [N.C.]
I let you know when we were driving home and all I can remember is the fact that we're swerving
[Chorus 2]
G C D
Lollipop, in the form of a lightning bolt
G C D
You’re a lollipop in my hair (how could I ever obtain you?)
G C D
But you’re a doorstop, when you’re lying on the bathroom floor
G C D
And I don’t have the time to wait in line for you (how could I ever betray you?)
[Bridge]
C G C D
Alter my state to get through this date (and it swallows me whole)
C G
Alter my state to get through this date (You're alone in this picture)
C D
Alter my state to get through this date
C G C D G
(you're alone in this picture) Alter my state to get through this date
C G C C# D
(You're alone in this picture) Alter my state to get through this date
[Chorus 3]
G C D
You're a lollipop, in the form of a lightning bolt (how could I ever betray you?)
G C D
You’re a lollipop in my hair (how could I ever obtain you?)
G C D
You look like Iggy Pop, circa ’73 or ‘4
G C D
And I don’t have the time to wait in line for you (how could I ever betray you?)
