VERSES:
Ooh, it's [Gm]scrambled eggs what he says
He ac[Gm]cuses me of treachery
[Gm]Got the nine lies, got the wide eyes,
got a [C]failing grade in chemistry
If you [Gm]count back to the balcony
when all we [Gm]saw was a mystery
of a [C]blonde-haired boy brought his mother joy
with his [F]pedigree and family [Gm]tree
Oh, [Gm]lay it all out on a wicker couch
that you [Gm]wove in a loony bin
[Gm]Cut it out, it's a second-round bout
not the [C]way of a gentleman
[Gm]Ah, give it up, get a job,
[Gm]take a pill and leave me be
He's got a [C]synapse lapse he don't think he has
but it's [F]been proven empirical[Gm]ly

Oh [Gm]now he's losing his constituency,
we thought "Oh, [D]this could never happen again."
If [Gm]I take something precious from him,
he try to [C]take something precious from me
There's a [Gm]battle in his head that he cannot win
There's a [D]man that he could never be
[C]Oh no
Way to [F]go
He's the [Gm]mayor

VERSES:
Oh, [Gm]I'm quite tired of this lunatic
Why must we [Gm]suffer 'cuz the mayor's sick?
He say:[Gm] "All abandon from this sinking ship."
and he's [C]off on another trip
No, [Gm]he don't care about environment
He has [Gm]made this a shtty place
My [C]interest rate shrinks at a rapid pace
compounded [F]daily on my worried [Gm]face
