[Verse 1]
EC#mAE
O fraudulent mirror, O rank rainbow toad
EC#mAB
I'd break apart too if I knowed what you knowed
AF#sus2B7/AAadd9
I'd fall from the wall, I'd leap from the road
EC#mAE
You take cover in the clover, you don't shoulder the load
[Verse 2]
EC#mAE
Wagner and wife, drama and strife,
EC#mABAF#sus2B7/AB
Their syphilitic friend Dionysus is wise not to ask, "Where's Sunstroke House?"
EC#mAE
Where's a crow on the far fence? Where's a mill by the pond?
[Chorus 1]
EG#m7B6Aadd9EG#mC#mB
Pale with horror I saw you when your bird flew
EG#m7B6Aadd9EG#mC#mB
Now who in the whole low world has been kind to you?
EG#m7B6Aadd9EC#mAE
Save for a kindly, ugly few? Don't read it, don't watch it, don't do what they do
EC#mAE
Don't read it, don't watch it, don't do what they do
[Verse 3]
EC#mAE
From the wind in the winter, no mercy, no quarter
EC#mAB7
From the summer no mercy and little goes well
AF#sus2B7/AB
That's where you'll live, that's where you'll live
EC#mAE
Till a gale rips ya sails, till a will kills ya mill
[Verse 4]
EC#mAEEC#mAadd9B
Where have you been, my heat, my shadow? How well did you like the song?
AF#sus2B7/AB
I filled it so full of nonsense and unrule
EC#mAE
You feel like there's something forgotten or fell
EC#mAE
You feel like there's something forgotten or fell
[Chorus 2]
EG#m7B6Aadd9EG#mC#mB
Pale with horror I saw you when your bird flew
EG#m7B6Aadd9EG#mC#mB
Now who in the whole low world has been kind to you?
EG#m7B6Aadd9EC#mAE
Save for a kindly, ugly few? Don't read it, don't watch it, don't do what they do
EC#mAE
Don't read it, don't watch it, don't do what they do
EC#mAE
Don't read it, don't watch it, don't do what they do
[Verse 5]
EC#mAEEC#mB
Pink lipped bub, golden haired sitting, portraits of withering roots
AF#sus2Aadd9BEC#mAE
Petty diversions, pointless excursions, pleasant distractions, underground mutes
