Hear for yourself a while

And if you must put me in a box make sure it's a big box
F# B/F#
With lots of windows
F# B/F#
And a door to walk through
F# B/F#
And a nice high chimney
F# C# D#m B
So we can burn, burn, burn everything that we don't like

And watch the ashes
F# B/F#
Fly up to heaven

All the ancient kings came to my door
F# C# D#m B
They said, "Do you wanna be an ancient king, too?" I said, "Oh yes, very much

F# B/F#
They said, "Time is relative
F# B/F#

Our goddamn health or something?"

Also the Muslims

It's like everybody's waiting

They've been waiting a long time
F# B/F#
I know how I hate to wait
F# B/F#
Like even for a bus or something
F# B/F#
An important phone call
F# B/F#
So I can just imagine
F# B/F#
How darned impatient
F# B/F#
Everybody must be getting

F# B/F#
Build up the suspense a little
F# B/F#
Make it a really big surprise
F# B/F#
But I could not resist
F# B/F#
It's like when you've got a really big secret
F# B/F#
You're just bursting to tell someone

It was sort of like that with this
F# B/F#
And now that I've told you
F# B/F#
I feel this great weight lifted
F# B/F#
