Verse 1:
[C]I can't smell a rat when it's all rat
[C]I can't find one in an elevator
[C]My mind doesn't work so bad
[C]But I am a poor exterminator, that's right
[C]I can't destroy entirely
[C]Or annihilate a little later
[C]I can't see the entire city
[C]But I'm not a bad exterminator
Chorus:
[C]I'm just[G] a shad[F]e sh[C]y of true wickedness
I'm[G] a shad[F]e shy of trul[C]y loving it, yeah
[G]There are [F]other things I'[C]d rather be doing[G]
[F]Even nothing
Even [D]nothing
Even [C]nothing with you
Verse 2:
[C]One day I'll make some honest rock n roll
[C]Full of handclaps and gang vocals
[C]I'm gonna get all the children involved
[C]We're gonna get lost on all you locals
Chorus:
[C]We'll be[G] a shad[F]e sh[C]y of true wickedness
We'll be[G] a shad[F]e shy of trul[C]y loving this, yeah
[G]There are [F]other things [C]we'll rather be doing, sur[G]e
[F]Even nothing
Even [D]nothing
Even [C]nothing with you
Bridge:
[D]We'll load out through the snow through
[F2]Small groups of people smoking
[C]Hey, get that kick drum loaded
[G]Into the backseat folded [D]down
We'll go virtually unnoticed
[F2]What's gripping the city ain't hitting [C]the town
Chorus:
[C]We'll be[G] a shad[F]e sh[C]y of true wickedness
We'll be[G] a shad[F]e shy of trul[C]y loving this, yeah
[G]There are [F]other things [C]that we'll surely miss
Bridge:
[D]We'll load out through the snow through
[F2]Small groups of people smoking
[C]Hey, get that kick drum loaded
[G]Into the backseat folded [D]down
We'll go perfectly unnoticed
[F2]What's gripping the city ain't hitting [C]the town
