Dumbfounded, downtrodden and dejected
F#m
Crestfallen, grief-stricken and exhausted

Trapped in my room while the house was burning

To the motherfucking ground

Man in a crossover with his family

Sketched in decals on the window smiling

Please be honest, tell me was it you?

Bridge:
F
At first he thought it was the undertow
D
But he was dragged to the bottom of the lake
F
By a couple of kids saying, "it's a joke"
D
Though he didn't know any of their names
F
As they held him down, the crowd got loud
D
And they cheered when they thought he had escaped
F
When the anchor needed something for the 10 o'clock
D
What could they say? Oh what else could they say?
G                                           C
