theres a hole in my head

where the lines you read

and treat me a like a fool

they froth at the mouths
A#m
and call me a clown
A#m
for jumping through their hoops
F#
and standing on their shoes
[Chorus]
C# F#
but don't be sad
C# A#m
it’ll never last
C# F#
and don't be sad OOOOO

and buy expensive boots
A#m
to walk straight through the scene
F#
smash snails to smithereens
[Verse 4]

you call your love a lie
A#m
a choke of desire

with a brain your couldn't beat
F#
and hands as soft as feet

but don't be sad
C# A#m
it’ll never last

it’ll never last
[Verse 5]
A#m Fb D# F# C#
until you run and get the kids to lick the bottoms of their lips
A#m
and they stare straight at the sun

and down the barrel of the gun
A#m D#m
you point it up you point it down

family all around
C# G#
you never lied
A#m
watch your back
F#
they've got you by the neck
F#
its never fair
D#m
its never fair
C# A#m
to see their smiles everywhere
A#m
but your face looks like a clowns
C#
paint it up and paint it down
C#
pity, piercing pray
C#
each morning of each day
A#m
its the last song left to sing
D#
you pretty little thing.
