I'm at my best when I'm at my worst
A#m F# G# C#maj7
I'm at my worst when it's not rehearsed
B* F#/A#
I don't wanna know the goddamn words
G# A#m
I don't wanna have to spell it out
D#m F#
Don't wanna mumble what I'm tryin to say
G# C#maj7
I wanna scream it from my foaming mouth
B* F#/A#
Shoot out the lights and ride away-E-A#-E-A
C#maj7
A#m F# G# C#maj7
I'm at my worst when I'm at my best
A#m F# G# C#maj7
I'm at my best when I'm trying to look and think and talk
B* F#/A#
And sing and read and write like all the rest
G# A#m
We're all just trying to play our roles
D#m F#
In a play that runs ad nauseum
G# C#maj7
I hate this damned enlightenment
B* F#/A#
We were better off as animals
Right?!

A#m F# G# C#maj7
We're at our best when it's from our hips
A#m F# G# C#maj7
From our hips we don't give a shit
B* F#/A#
It just feels good, and that's no sin
G# A#m
It's the only way to feel alive
D#m F#
It's the closest thing to being born again
G# C#maj7
And when baby comes it's job well done
B* F#/A#
Roll in the hay, or a roll around the sun
C#maj7
A#m F# G# C#maj7
We're at our worst when it's from our lips
A#m F# G# C#maj7
From our lips we caused a rift
B* F#/A#
And this world is falling in
G# A#m
From Babylon to barroom brawls
D#m F#
Our words have formed a death sentence
G# C#maj7
And I wish that we had never talked
B* F#/A#
Our hips said it all-A-all-A-all-A-all

And I wish that we had never talked

Our hips said it all-A-all-A-all-A-all
C#maj7 (ad nauseum)
