[Verse]
Fm G# D# C#
I hear the rock show winding down at the high school
Fm G# D# C#
Kids out on the sidewalk, waiting for a ride
Fm G# D# C#
All the punks and the queers and the freaks and the smokers
Fm G# D# C#
Feel like they'll be waiting for the rest of their lives
[Chorus]
G# D# C#
Alright I hear what you're saying to me
G# D# C#
Alright I hear what I just can't do
G# D# C#
But I got this spark I got to feed it something
Fm G# D# C#
Or put it out for good, put it out for good
[Verse]
Fm G# D#
The stadium lights were breaking through the bleachers
C# Fm G# D#
I spent all day pushing tissue roses into chicken wire
C# Fm G# D#
Hey S. G. A., I'm an overachiever of the wrong persuasion
C# Fm G# D# C#
C# pep rally kid, a new gender nation with a new desire
[Chorus]

Alright I hear what you're saying to me
G# D# C#
Alright I hear what I just can't do
G# D# C#
But I got this spark I got to feed it something

Or put it out for good, put it out for good
[Bridge]
Fm C# D#
Rub up against it till you it gets inside you
Fm C# D#
Rub up against it till it's understood
Fm C# D#
Those aren't your friends talking shit about you
Fm C# D#
We've had it bad, we're gonna make it good
[Chorus]
G# D# C#
Alright I hear what you're saying to me (rub up against me till it's alright)
G# D# C#
Alright I hear what I just can't do (rub up against me till it's alright)

But we got this spark, we got to feed it something(rub up against me and)
Fm G# D# C#

Let it burn for good, Yeah let it burn for good
