Can’t feel my arms or my legs (uh-uh)

'Cause I hate the sound of my own voice


Marilyn Monroe - spoken:
F  Gm  G#m  Gm  F repeated
I would like to be more sociable than I am
But there is something in people where they want - or they need solitude for a while

Verse 2 - spoken:
F  Gm  G#m  Gm  F repeated throughout

I do my best to keep it with my people
Mh, but what the fuck does that even mean?
Worried 'bout your life
Now another thought of death
How you’re gonna figure out
How you’re gonna do your best
See the reason why they did not understand you in school
Same reason why you tell yourself you’re not cool
Trust your ideas
And only drink beers, if you really want to
And not just cause they’re free
And not just cause your friends have had three
On to the fourth
But you still can’t see why they would want to drink this
Cold
Branded
Bottled
Fizzing
Piss..
But take it from the voice inside your head
You don’t have to drink at all
Fuck what they said about a good night
Fuck a good night
Who needs an academic career when you’re the one with all the ideas?

Chorus:
Bb            Am
Can’t feel my arms or my legs (uh-uh)
Bb               Am     Am G#m  Gm
Maybe I’m already dead (ahhh ah ah)
Gm              Am
I can’t hear my voice, thank God (Why thank God?)
Bb                      Bdim        C7
'Cause I hate the sound of my own voice
