Verse 1:
DmDm G+G
There was a time
A minorAm C majorC
I was livin’ as a prisoner inside my own mind
DmDm G+G
And there was a time
A minorAm C majorC
Where the cat and mouse tried to make me Barbie-sized
And I obliged
Pre-Chorus:
DmDm G+G
Pulled leather over my eyes in a hundred-degree heat
A minorAm C majorC
People out here gettin’ fired for chocolate in the backseat (It’s a true story)
DmDm G+G
I had too much of my fill and turns out, it wasn’t cheap
A minorAm C majorC
People always hung around who only want it skin-deep
Chorus:
N.C. DmDm G+G
And now I’m sayin’ no more melon cakеs on birthdays
A minorAm C majorC FF
No more barricades in doorways
DmDm G+G
Finally get to do things my way
A minorAm C majorC FF
La-la-la, la-la-la
DmDm G+G
You could find mе starvin’ for attention most days
A minorAm C majorC FF
Amongst other things, God help me

Finally get to do things my way

La-la-la, la-la-la
DmDm
No more melon cake

Those thoughts on my worst enemy

They make you wish you don’t exist
