Verse 1:
Could it
D     G
be, a break in the
D        G
gloom? A frame for the
Bm
bruise you left, or the
G
wounds you cleft with your
D      G            A               G
shoes, Under the pretense of taking steps to
D        G                  A                 G
improve? So I'll believe it when you make the ten o'clock
Bm              E                G           A
news, I'm only messing with you, but all the same if you
D       G        A      G
find my societal impact isn't aligned
D        G            A       G
With all this violent syntax, you can decline
Bm               Em
To describe what exactly it is, and we can
G                         A           Bm
wrap up this chat and get back to the grid
    G
But remind me: where, oh, where does the time go?
D

Why does it matter at all given I'm so
G
creepy and battered? I need you to grab those
D     F#m        Bm              A
sepia-toned photographs from the past, or maybe
G
read me a bad poem, just rub my back, stroke my
D
thigh like I'm a regular guy, just some asshole who
G
couldn't change your life if he tried, Look, I've got nothing to
D                         A
hide, did you have something in mind?

Chorus 1:
Bm           F#m
Could it be, could it be you're scared?
Bm           F#m
C'est ma vie, c'est la vie en merde!
G                      D
Clarity shouldn't need be declared
G             D
Therapy can't reach the unprepared
G         D
But sweet parody…!
G A Bm
G D
Em Bm
G            A
It shouldn't take all-

Verse 2:
D                    Em
night to capture the gist in a joke, cram your
A                         G
things in a bag and drift onto the road
Bm                             Em
You can get a studio below the Domino's, or you could
G                          A     G
maybe immolate yourself in Cicero
D                       Bm
At a US Maple show, no, Alkaline Trio, you could
D                           Bm
never take a joke, I don't even wanna know, when the
Em                             G
pentothal flows, I bet you're out of control
Em                                    G              A
Listen, I think you're dope but I'm a thousand years old

Chorus 2:
Bm                  F#m
I could be, could I be so bold:
Bm                 F#m
How are we? How am I solo?
G               D
Comedy is not a microscope
G                           D
And I don't wanna seem like such a misanthrope
G           D
But get off me!
G A Bm
G D
Em Bm G A
It shouldn't take all-

Outro:
D                 Em
kinds of minds to unpack this
  A            G
exercise in excrescence, you'll be
A                      G
fine with a mime and a stand-up comedian
D Bm
        G                              A
Listen, I think you're nice and I'm a stand up guy, so come on
D               F#m          Bm          A
hands up if you wanna take a chance on a lie, honey
G              Em             A        G
I think you're wild and I'm a stand-up comedian
D
