  C        G        F
A man walks out of his apartment
C    G              F
It is raining, he's got no umbrella
C         G          F
He starts running beneath the awnings
C         G        F
trying to save his suit
C         G       F                    C    G   F
Tryin to dryin to tryin to dry but no good

C         G        F
When he gets to the crowded subway platform
    C        G           F
he takes off both of his shoes
    C        G            F
He steps right into somebody's fat loogie
    C             G            F
And everyone who sees him says "ewwww"
C           G               F
Everyone who sees him says "ewwww"

C                              F                              C
But he doesn't care cause last night he got a visit from the Ghost of
           G
Corporate Future
    C                             F                          C
The Ghost said take off both your shoes whatever chances you get
                        F
Especially when they're wet
        G
He also said

C         G     F
Imagine you go away
     C         G        F
on a business trip one day
    C        G         F
And when you come back home
     C             G
Your children have grown
         F
And you never made your wife moan

F
And people make you nervous

You'd think the world was ending
    C
And everybody's features
     F
Have somehow started blending

And everything is plastic

And everyone's sarcastic
    C
And all your food is frozen
   F
It needs to be defrosted

You'd think the world was ending

You'd think the world was ending
      C                                 F
You'd think the world was ending right now

C            G               F
Well maybe you should just drink a lot less coffee
    C                    G          F
And never ever watch the 10 o'clock news
C        G        F                   C      G       F
Maybe you should kiss someone nice or lick a rock or both
C       G        F                        C       G     F
Maybe you should cut your own hair cause that can be so funny
   C        G       F                         C
It doesn't cost any money and it always grows back
      G            F
Hair grows even after you're dead

F
People are just people

They shouldn't make you nervous
    C
The world is everlasting
     F
It's coming and it's going

If you don't toss your plastic

The streets won't be so plastic
    C
And if you kiss somebody
     F
Then both of you'll get practice

F
The world is everlasting

Put dirtballs in your pockets
     C
Put dirtballs in your pockets
    F
And take off both your shoes

Cause people are just people

People are just people
C                           F
People are just people like you

F
People are just people

People are just people
C                           F
People are just people like you

    G            C
The world is everlasting
     F               G  C
It's coming and it's going
    G            C
The world is everlasting
     F               G C
It's coming and it's going
     F               G C
It's coming and it's going
