[Db] I'm a [Ab] stranger in a strange [Ebm] land [Gb] I feel like [Db] an alien
It's like I'm on the [Ab] outside [Ebm] looking in [Gb] I don't seem to fit [Db] in
Maybe I'm [Ab] Aladdin with a rusty [Ebm] lamp [Gb] A dream that never [Db] stood a chance
I [Ab] make all my wishes [Ebm] come [Gb] true But here's what I wanna [Db] do
I [Ab] know the need of the one person
[Ebm] When [Gb] I'm [Db] president I [Ab] want the 20th Amendment
[Ebm] I'm not the head of the party But [Gb] when I'm [Db] president
They're like [Ab] thieves on the Holy [Ebm] Road [Gb] Digging out the mother [Db] load
[Ab] Like pirates on the open [Ebm] sea [Gb] They're like highway
[Db] robberies
Still [Ab] whining about your [Ebm] bonus [Gb] Man up, you're ridiculous
[Db] You [Ab] know you can't take it with [Ebm] you [Gb] Give a little [Db] extra

[Gb] Welcome to the pit and the pendulum [Db] I [Ab] know the need of the one [Ebm] person
[Gb] When I'm [Db] president I want [Ab] the 20th Amendment
