I'm goin' where sore losers go, to hide my face and spend my dough
E MajorE             C majorC     A minorAm         BB
Though it's a dream, it's not a lie, and I won't stop to say goodbye

See I just couldn't take no more, of whippin' fools and keepin' score
E MajorE           C majorC       A minorAm        BB

Out of the way I'll get away, won't have to hear the things they say
E MajorE       C majorC            A minorAm    BB
Tamales and a bank account, are all I need, so count me out
   E MajorE          C majorC     A minorAm         BB
Paraguay........

Outro rant: (Iggy)


There's nothing awesome here, Not a damn thing, There's nothing new, Just a bunch of people scared
Everybody's fucking scared, Fear eats all the souls at once,
I'm tired of it, And I dream about getting away
To a new life, Where there's not so much fucking knowledge,
I don't want any of this information, I don't want you
No, Not anymore
I've had enough of you, Yeah, I'm talking to you,
I'm gonna go to Paraguay, To live in Amcompound under the trees
With servants and bodyguards who love me
Free of criticism, Free of manners and mores, I wanna be your basic clod, Who made good
And went away while he could, To somewhere where people are still human beings
Where they have spirit, You take your motherfucking laptop
And just shove it into your goddamn foul mouth, And down your shit heel gizzard
You fucking phony two faced three timing piece of turd, And I hope you shit it out, With all the words in it
And I hope the security services read those words, And pick you up and flay you
For all your evil and poisonous intentions, Because I'm sick, And it's your fault!!!!
And I'm gonna go heal myself now, yeah!
