[Verse 1]
D# A#
Saw Jim Reid in the corridor and I wondered if he could ever see me that way
D# A#
He was on my list at the grocery store when you grabbed my wrist and said you liked my keychain
D# A#
Read your feature in the weekly paper and honestly I found it a little bit bloated
D# Ab A#
Friday we fell through the coffee table and that’s when I discovered that my heart exploded
[Pre-chorus]
Ab A#
How

How
[Chorus 1]
D# Ab A#
You’re a lollipop, in the form of a lightning bolt
D# Ab A#
You’re a lollipop in my hair
D# Ab A#
But I’m a gumdrop, am I ever gonna fit that mould?
D# Ab A#
Because I don’t have the patience to wait in line for you, ooh
[Verse 2]
D# A#
When I came back to apologize you asked me if I was intrigued by LSD
D# A#
I sat next to you on the picnic bench and before I knew it you were flying next to me
D# A#
I met your baby at the exposition and frankly I found it a little unnerving
D# [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]
D# Ab A#
Lollipop, in the form of a lightning bolt
D# Ab A#
You’re a lollipop in my hair (how could I ever obtain you?)
D# Ab A#
But you’re a doorstop, when you’re lying on the bathroom floor
D# Ab A#
And I don’t have the time to wait in line for you (how could I ever betray you?)
[Bridge]
Ab D# Ab A#
Alter my state to get through this date (and it swallows me whole)
Ab D#
Alter my state to get through this date (You're alone in this picture)
Ab A#
Alter my state to get through this date
Ab D# Ab A# D#
(you're alone in this picture) Alter my state to get through this date
Ab D# Ab A A#
(You're alone in this picture) Alter my state to get through this date
[Chorus 3]
D# Ab A#
You're a lollipop, in the form of a lightning bolt (how could I ever betray you?)
D# Ab A#
You’re a lollipop in my hair (how could I ever obtain you?)
D# Ab A#
You look like Iggy Pop, circa ’73 or ‘4
D# Ab A#
And I don’t have the time to wait in line for you (how could I ever betray you?)
